Support Groups in LR?

I just had Lap-Band March 25th; had my 1st fill April 14th.  I'm doing fine except that I'm having to learn to rethink my eating habits.  My partner is having difficulty with all this... So, my question is:  is there a support group in the LR area for Dr Luttrell and/or Lap-Band patients and their families that we can go to and talk to others in the same situation?

dr. Luttrell has monthly support meetings, I get an email from Reggi every month telling me when.  They bring in special speakers and everything.  I can't drive that far everymonth, but I understand they are really good.  Just call Reggi and ask her about them.  The next one is April 24th.  I have copied and pasted the message sent this month. Hello everyone!  It’s that time again…our next Lap-Band Support Group Meeting!  .  It is scheduled for April 24^th at 6:30pm at Dr. Luttrell’s office in the Rivercrest Center .  These meetings are important for your continued success with your lap-band.  It’s a time to share your questions and joys and hear other’s stories as well.  Our special guest will be Dr. Nancy Ryburn.  She will be ready to hear any food or psychological issue questions you may have.  Erin will be available for any exercise related questions.  Our belt man, Mark, will also be on hand to punch those holes in your now too big belts…so bring those with you!  Also, after such a rave review of the new meal replacement shake called Chike, we will be ordering it to sell to you in the near future.  It will be $50 a tub…a tub is 28 servings.  If you were one of the people who tried Chike and were hooked, let us know what flavors you liked so we can begin ordering.  Please RSVP by replying to this email.  We look forward to seeing everyone there!

Thanks, I did just that; I called Regi and she forwarded that same email to me and I'm now added to her distribution list... Thanks again! Jamie

You're always welcome to join us at the Baptist Hosp. Support group meetings the second Thursday of each month.  They are from 6:00-7:30 Keep up the good work

Thanks Susan, I'll put it on my calendar so if I'm not able to make to Dr. Luttrell's then I'll come to yours, thanks bunches...
