JaxFL Support Group Meeting

Support Group Meeting - Saturday, May 20th 10AM - 11AM - Bandsters and those interested in banding 11 AM - 1 PM - RNY and other WLS patients All are welcome....pre ops, post ops, family and friends. 7256 Merrill Road We're 4 houses east of the intersection of Merrill Road and Townsend Blvd. - same side of the street at WalGreen's and across the street from NAPA. Plenty of parking next door at Semegon Chiropractic. We have a clothing exchange so if you have anything you want to donate, please just make sure the clothing is clean and bring it with you. If you have hangers, that would be great. On the clothing exchange.....take what you need and bring it back to the house when it gets to big so that the next person can have access to it. We also have a product exchange so bring this consumables you bought and found out you didn't like and contribute to the supplies. On the product exchange.....they are samples. Please don't take a whole container of anything. Take a "sample" (there are zip lock bags avilable) and try it. This will save you money on buying large containers and finding out its not what you wanted. But if you take an entire container, that means somebody else doesn't get to sample that product. See you tomorrow? La Wanda

La Wanda Sorry I didn't make it, we got turned around the wrong way and by the time we figured it out we were way late. if i move out here, i'll be sure to join your group. went to amelia island and st augustine today, got nice and toasty..

Hi La Wanda, I just found your post about the support group meeting. I am also seeing Dr. Cywes, and attended last months support group at the office. I couldn't make the one last thursday because of work. I just got my surgery date yesterday......... June 8th! I'm excited, any advice?

Oh my goodness, Mary, CONGRATS. Isn't it wonderful to finally get that date? I missed Dr. C's last support group meeting but you MUST have met the only guy who was there, Jim. He has a recipe exchange he does for us and I have a cousin who is a personal trainer who does weight loss tips for us. All of that is done via email so if you want to be on either of those lists, please let me know. And I, of course, have an email list and would LOVE for you to be a part of that. Its for upcoming meeting notices and for people to write to the group telling us about victories or defeats. If you'd like to be a part of that group, you let me know. I'm so excited for you. Keep me posted and let me know how its going. Hopefully I'll see you at the support group meeting on June 3rd (my group) and we can talk face to face before your surgery. Let me hear from you. And, Congrats once again. La Wanda 308-248-200

Definitly put me on your email list! i'm not sure i will need the recipe exchange, as i don't do much cooking anymore........ The personal trainer one would be good as well. I'm sure that I met you at the support group, your photo looks VERY familiar. You couldn't have missed me if we were at the same meeting. I'm the girl w/ the pink hair! :) I will certainly try to make it to the group on the 3rd. I am on call at the spa on saturdays, so if I have an appointment, I won't be able to attend. I know I will have alot of clothing to give to the exchange....... alot of it has never even been worn. I buy online alot of the time, and then get it, and it makes me look even bigger! In fact, a couple of things i pulled out of my closet last night, still have the fold lines!! Thank you so much for your support, I'm sure I'm going to need it the closer my date gets!! Mary
