Kim_8 2 Posted January 17, 2006 If you go to www.bandbuddies.com, I saw that they were talking about getting together - it sounded like they do it frequently and I thought I might check it out as well. The board is much more difficult to interpret than this one - more of an email chain, but most people are from around here I think. Kim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest lmcauley Posted January 17, 2006 Ruthie, there is a support group at Trinity Medical Center on Josey Lane in Carrollton. They meet usually on the 3rd Thursday of the month at 6:30. Most of the people are patients of Dr. Veninga's, but everybody is welcome. Some of the people have had bypass, some are banded. Dr. Veninga is no longer doing the gastric bypass, so eventually the majority of the attendees will be bandsters. He also walks on the first Saturday of every month with a group of patients. We meet at Arbor Hills Nature Preserve in west Plano and walk the 2 1/2 mile trail. He's also planning a family picnic in June. It's a fun group. His website is www.ntxbariatric.com and click on Patient Info and then Calendar of Events. Laura Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
