Please let me know if you are planning on attending the meeting for tomorrow, Wednesday. If low attendance again, I will cancel.

Should we wait till summer is over to continue these meetings? Please let me know what you think.

Thanks!

I will be there

I can't make it this month.

Due to lack of confirmed attendance, tonight's meeting is cancelled. I am not going to schedule another meeting until the end of summer - perhaps this is one of the reasons for the lack of attendance. We'll try this again in the fall. Have a great summer and stay healthy!

Starting the lap band journey in the next month or so, would love to receive info about future meeting info! Thanks

I'd like it if we could have a St. Charles County group, since the St. Louis groups are always too far away.

I had RNY done in 2009 at DePaul. I went from 277 down to 147. I've been as low as 127, but I'm back at 147-150 right now and I'm trying to get back down to the 140 mark.

I would attend a St. Charles group. I go the support group meetings at DePaul each month and will continue. But I would also attend a St. Charles meeting too.

I wouldn't attend a St. Charles group. Too far for me. I'd prefer something more centralized.

I live in Franklin county MO. Are there any other people in my area? I live a little over an hour from St. Louis or St. Charles. I'd prefer something more local.

Are we having a September meeting?

[loser2014 73]

What about October? Hope to be banded by the end of that month.

Is the St. Louis support group still active? I'm a recent sleever and would like to meet and share with others on this journey.

This thread hasn't had any updates on it for several months so I'm not sure if they are still meeting. If you don't hear back from the leader here, there are support group meetings available in the St. Louis area. I attend one in Collinsville when I can. Theres usually 10-20 people there. 2nd and 4th Thursday's of the month. Open to anyone who has had or is planning on having surgery. You're always welcome there.

Best wishes on your success!
