About three months ago, I started a Meet-up group for those who seek a supportive environment to discuss our banding experience - pros, cons, all opinions - but supportive!

The group is also to help those considering banding, or any bariatric surgery, so that they have an environment to comfortably ask questions of those who have HAD surgery.

This group is not endorsed by any particular medical facility, doctor, or product manaufacturer.  However, we do get some perks from supplement suppliers, etc., via samples, but they do not govern how we meet or what we discuss - just offer perks!

We have a meetup on Thursday, November 23, in the Burbank area. Please feel to join us by joining the Meetup group.  The group is called Banded to Lose:

About me: I had banding surgery in May of 2010 .  I can honestly say that my experience has been a very good one and that I have lost 68 lbs. 

Obesityhelp.com has been a major part of my life as a support and information sharing community.  It was also instrumental in helping me make my decision to get banded.  If this is your first time to Obesityhelp.com, and you are considering any kind of bariatric surgery, you are definitely in the right place!

If you want to meet and talk with others locally, please RSVP and feel free to join us at our meetup group!
