Austin Area Bandsters Intersted in Support Group ?

Anyone in the Austin area interested in meeting up with other Austin bandsters once or twice a month for some one on one support ?

A few Austin bandsters and I were talking that in less you belong to a few certain practices in Austin there are no local support groups for WLS .

SO we thought about maybe getting together once a month , possibly even rotating peoples houses to not have to pay for meeting somewhere, and just get together to support each other . I know i for one would like some face to face contact some times LOL

Anyone intersted ? If so contact me ...

Thanks

Mindy

Hi, I'm in Cedar Park and would love to meet up. I'm afraid I'm part of the 10% that lap band doesn't work for or hasn't worked for but I'd love to find support and a ways to help lose weight. Also, would love to find a new doctor.

I got my surgery Lapband on oct. 22 2012 and I a very happy I did. Here have been no complications no nausea or pain. Went off pain meds by the 4 day and got back into my life by week two. Which involves running around to fe my ds to school,therphy and swim 3 days a week and laundry,dishese house Work and all meals. I get tired quickly though. Still on cream soups and protein shakes. Sometimes try real food like eyes and yogurt.
