Hey All.  I was supposed to start my journey today, but due to some miscommunication, my appointment was moved to May 5th.  It would be really great if I could go to some support group meetings before then.  Does anyone know when the next one will be in the Charlotte/Fort Mill area?  Thanx

I went to the one at Presybeterian last night and that is the third monday of the month. The NUT who was there mentioned that the clinc she works at has meetings all the time She was from Southeast Bariatrics and I think she said there meetings are open to all patients no where they had surgery.  I am sure that one of teh EXPERTS here will read this and give you a list, they are fabulous and very knowledgable

Southeast Bariatrics also holds a Lap-band support group that is open to anyone as we have all types of patients that show up. That one is held the 2nd Saturday of every month and it's held at Presbyterian Hospital in Confrence rooms F & G.  My closest friends are my friends that I have met on-line and through support group.  Good Luck!!!!
