Topic: Band support group in Toledo area?
I'm having lap-band surgery in Detroit at Great Lakes Weight Loss next week and am looking for a local support group (Toledo area). Would love to find a lap-band specific group, but would be very happy with a general WLS group.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

What FAA Meetings do you go to? I use to go to Marymount and Parma (State Road). It's been a long time since I've been to FAA. Here's my regular e-mail address if you would like to correspond back and forth: [email protected].

Not really no. I have started going to FA (Food Addicts Anonymous) but I would like support with people who have had the surgery.

I was just thinking - are there any OA Meetings in your area? Many patients also attend OA and that could help.
