Did anyone sign up?
For the class Margaret Keenan is doing on the 19th of March? It's geared towards women 6 months out and longer. It's at PMRI and will overlap with the regular support group meeting that month. I've been to the first 3 months meeting 3 times so I won't miss much there other than the people ( darnit, I hope some agree to stay late so we can have lunch again, that was so much fun ) I know class size was limited. I'm really looking forward to this and hearing what everyone's experiences have been.

Hi Karen,
This is what the paper says:
Woman to Woman After Weight Loss Surgery
Gastric bypass and gastric banding surgery can restore health and give you a new, healthier lifestyle, but they can also bring some unexpected challenges. You will face fighting old eating habits, staying positive when you hit a weight loss plateau, getting to know your new, rapidly changing body, and coping with the increased attention from family, friends and even strangers.
If your weight loss surgery was at least six months ago, join this small group workshop to share your experiences and learn from other women who have "been there" We'll focus on strategies to stay positive, strong and commited. To maintaining weight loss and taking joy in your improved health and quality of life. Class size is limited, so register early.
Instructor Margaret Keenan Ph.D. is chief of Health Psychology at the Preventive Medicine % Rehabilitation Institute. Dr. Keenan has been working with the bariatric surgery program at Christiana Care for several years, helping individuals prepare for and adjust to life after weight loss surgery.
