Support Group help

[babygrl1234 6]

So we are looking for some good support group topics and guest speakers in my clinic. Does anyone have any ideas or sugestions from what you have experienced at supports groups? We have done protien tastings, plastic surgeons, psychologists, and exercise pysiologist, nutritionists. I am jsut trying to look for something new and different. Any suggestions would be welcomed.

I can't give you suggestions from the (very few) support groups I've attended because the topics weren't helpful. But from my butt:

A clothing exchange. Myths about the body/weightloss/etc. A "bring your favorite band friendly food" recipe swap thing - kinda like the Protein tasting only better. Psychologist to focus on managing addiction (it that wasn't one of your topics already). A little Bandster 101 never hurt anyone, I've meet people 3 and 4 years out who are doing some really stupid things because they still don't know better.

That's about it, I'm not feeling creative today.

the "traveling" bandster. How to negotiate flying, hotels, dining out, what to pack, emergencies, etc. I just returned from a trip to DC. It was an experience.

How to eat at restaurants, negotiating holiday foods, sharing how an individual overcame a specific obstical, discuss who is a support who is a barrier, visualize what success will look like, setting short term and stretch goals...these are what I think about.

Look at some old Weight Watcher ideas.
