mini support group

Hello All, I am feeling out of the loop in terms of getting support. I love the message board but really need the one to one experience. I am a wimpy driver so therefore I don't get to Dr. Aranow's groups and I haven't done the last couple socials for the same reason. I was wondering if there were a few people from the Norwich area that might be interested in meeting on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. I did this with a small diabetes group and we met for coffee each week at Bess Eaton. We met for years and close bonds were formed. I look forward to hearing from some of you. You can e-mail me at [email protected] Thanks Carolyn

Sounds good to me Maggie , Ann and I can meet you somewhere but I am sure other people who lives in this area would like to go out to chat and share experisnce for social life. Great idea !!! Kathy K

HI Carolyn. Have not seen much from you since your surgery. From the picture, things seem to be going well. I thought there was a groupsomewhere in that area. Didn't it meet at J&M or Baccus? Might want to check it out. Peter

I was JUST thinking there needs to be more frequent meetings in this area! I would definetly be interested! Please let me know when/where and I will do my best to be there! Carmen

I live in Waterford and am in the same boat as you. I have a night driving issue but would be happy to meet somewhere - I can handle a drive to Norwich. I am just starting my journey - went to my first bariatric meeting last night and met Dr. Barba - he was just great! I am also a type 1 diabetic and you have given me advice once already. Just let me know where and when and I will be there providing my schedule allows. Looking forward to hearing from you, Nancy

Hi Nancy I am glad to hear your meeting with your doctor went very well. You will like Carolyn. She is great lady and I am sure she will be happy to help you with this since I do not have this . Looking forward to meet you some day. Are you still go for Lap Banding or RNY? Take care Kathy K

Carolyn, I would love to do that. That would be great. If I'm going to any of the gatherings and what not, you're always welcome to tag along with me. My husband and I are going to the Nov. dinner if you'd like to go, just let me know. Let me know when you would be interested in getting this started. Once a week would be all I would be able to do between work and my Mary Kay. Maggie

I'm retired so I have plenty of time to get-together with other WLS folks. Just let me know where and when! Ann

I may be interested also, let me know.

I'm game.. let me know when and where.. Pattie D
