Eugene/Springfield Support Group

I still want a group. How many people do we need? At least 3? or more?
I am new to this and would really like to be able to get together with others locally for help and support. I attended my first support group meeting at Riverbend last Monday and was encouraged that there were so many there. I found this group on OH and find no activity. What do we need to do to spark a fire of discussion?

Hi, I live in Cottage Grove. I've had my lapband for 2.5 years. And I am starting to gain over the holidays. I did it to myself. I ate lotsa food. But I need to get back on the bandwagon. Would you or anyone be interested in emailing me to discuss strategies and ideas, recipies, etc? Let me know! Thank you, Linda

Hi! I attend most of the Bariatric Center's support group meetings, but they're few and far between. I could really benefit from some face to face, or at least real time, meetings with my bariatric peeps.

I'm very new to OH. I'm not sure how everything works just yet. I love the online help, but I was also wondering if the group has meetings in Eugene or Springfield.
I had Lap-Band surgery at the end of September '09. So... I guess it's been almost 3 months. I have a great deal of weight to lose and could use all the help I can get. I have been disabled from a few problems, and pray that weight loss will help me to have more mobility and participation in life.
I'd love to hear from anyone out there, and hopefully I can learn from your experiences. I am here to share also. I need for this endeavor to be successful. It's about the last chance I have.
Hope to hear from someone.
I would like to share my support with you as well.Blessings
