| North of Boston Lap Band Support Group
Hi, I live in Peabody, MA and would like to start a support group in the evening or weekend and have live support. I know I can use some. I am a sugar addict and I cannot control it.
I hope to hear from some of you guys soon.

Not so sure I'd want to go to an actual meeting, but would certainly be willing to have a "buddy" to help me through and encourage me with all of this! Let me know if you're interested. I do live in the Boston area, but I'm not a fan of the group meetings....too many memories of failed attempts at Weight Watchers. ;)

I'm in the Woburn area, but had surgery through Brigham and Women's. They have a support group, but I've gone twice and didn't find it helpful. I also can't imagine trying to schedule any more meetings in my life right now. I'm not willing to give up my afternoons/evenings with the girls at the gym. :)

HI, I live in Beverly and I also need some support but I really do not have alot of time to make it to a live meeting. I also crave a lot of sweets. That is my biggest problem. I do not get enough exercise either. The weather is getting a little better so I will be able to get out and walk. I seem to work well in challenges like exercise or maybe a junk food free challenge. If anyone is up to it lets do it.

It might be fun to wait until the weather is a little more consistently nice and find a day/time when we could meet up to take a walk---do a walk and talk--to kill 2 birds with one stone. Sounds like we're all relatively close, within 40 minutes drive, and could find something somewhat central. Think about sometime in May. My schedule changes from week to week, but I can try to be flexible..... :)

I would love to join in. I live closer to the NH border though. If the drive was not bad, I would definitely be intersted.
I live in Lowell about 10/15 minutes form the NH border.
I definitely need help! lol.
