Just moved to Newton, MA

Hi!

I just moved to Newton, MA from Connecticut. I was banded 8/13/08 and then rebanded 4/29/09 due to a leak. I am missing my local support group and would love to meet other banded people in the area. I would also really love to find a support group in the area since I feel this really helps me stay on track.

Welcome to Mass! I am just starting my journey and haven't been to a group yet but there is a LAP-BAND® support group about 22 minutes from you in Burlington, MA at the Lahey Clinic (that is where I will be getting my surgery).

I have attached the link to the website: Select a Medical Service | Surgical Weight Loss Center | Further Information

They meet the Last Tuesday of each month from 6-7:30. The only downside is you have to pay for parking- but the hospital is really nice. It is also kind of big and can be a little overwhelming at first- but once you get where you're going it's fine!

Hope this help

Thanks so much for the information. I look forward to going to a support meeting again. I hope things go well for you and your journey. Things have gone fairly well for me although things have been a bit more of a struggle lately, which is why I think a local support group is a good idea.
