I am in Conroe, the closest support group I know of is in The Woodlands - I haven't been yet - but plan to. If you decide to start one, let me know!

I am trying to find an exercise buddy that wants to meet and walk, bike or do the Water Rec Center, or Curves - but no go so far.

I have been going to the Woodlands get-together at the Panther Creek Starbucks. We have been meeting once a month and it has been very nice. I live at Lake Conroe for a little longer and will be moving to Bryan soon. Our next meeting in the Woodlands is on the 12th.

I live a bit farther north and really don't want to drive farther south than Conroe, unless I have to, that's why I was hoping to find a group in Conroe or Willis.

Let me know if anyone wants to get together in Conroe or Willis.

I would be interested in the support group in Conroe area. I live in Montgomery and just decided to get banded. I was impressed with Dr. Collier but still want to check all the ones in the area. Any suggestions?

We're meeting Saturday, April 26th at the Starbucks, Lake Conroe at 9 am. Everyone is welcome, come join us! :tongue_smilie:

Just wanted to remind everyone, we are meeting tomorrow at Starbucks (lake conroe) at 9:00 am

Had a great time talking with ya'll. Both of you look amazing and has inspired me enough that I went online and got approval for financing. So now all I need to do is my pre-op appt. I would love to meet again and we could even start a walking group?? Anyone interested?

Hey Sarah,

It was nice to meet you today also. I would like to meet again and you know after our conversation today that I really need to get into the exercise. I would really like to get together and walk. Let me know when you get your pre-op appt. Best of luck.

I didn't get to make it this morning, but count me in for next time! Also, if you start a walking group - I am SO IN!

Melinda and Sarah, it was great to meet both of you yesterday! I'd love to get together on a "regular" basis, maybe someplace in the middle??? haha

Thanks for the compliment Sarah, I feel wonderful and I'm anxious to see what my weight loss is now. After yesterday I am moving my appt up so I can find out my current weight and get an appt for my 2nd fill.

Melinda, it's like we've known each other for years so it was great to finally meet face to face with no curtains or screens.......haha

You both have my cell phone, let's set another date!

Anyone else in the area, join us........and I don't think I'll be driving to meet ya'll and walk, just a bit far.

:huh2:

I forgot to mention a comment my DH made. He said are you sure they were just banded because it didnt seem like they needed to loose much. I go for my pre-op appt on 4/30 so I will let you know how it goes. I am willing to meet anywhere. I drive to Huntsville to work 3 to 4 nights a week and always in the Woodlands/Spring area 2-3 a week too.

Well Sarah, tell your DH thanks! but when I started I had over 100 lbs to lose! I can't wait to see Dr. Collier and see how much more weight I've lost. I'm only using his scales for now. Soon I'm going to use my PCP's, she's very supportive of my having the band.

We need to plan our next meeting......

I work in Conroe and would be interested in meeting for the support group during lunch hour or shortly after work. I could really use the commradery and friendship. :unsure:

Hey gang, I just joined Golds Gym in Conroe and wanted to know if any of you gals go there? If so, we could be workout buddies!

I will probably be joining the gym here eventually and that is the best one near my house. I will let you know. There is a social group started that says Dr. Collier patients, I found it under my control panel area. Everyone should join!!! :wub:
