Is anyone going to the Lap Band Support Group meeting tonight at Abbott Northwestern? I attended my first one a few months back and this is the first opportunity I have had to be able to attend another one. I'm really looking forward to it, since I'm now "on the other side".

Here's what you need to know if you want to attend (I copied this from the OSSGMN calendar...):

Lap Band support group at Abbott Northwestern Hospital Founders Mall Conference Room at the Sister Kenny Pavillion. Contact information:Joni Callahan 612-863-7501

Also, is anyone on this list planning to attend the Park Nicollet Support meeting tomorrow night? I've been told I will be the only bandster, but I'm interested in attending this since it's so close to home and I had my surgery through Park Nicollet.

Thanks.

Oops - it always helps to indicate what time the meeting starts - 6:00 PM.

where is it and when

The next meetings should be coming up soon. I think it was the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month. I will have to check for sure. I had my band done at pnc by Dr. Wetherille too. It would be great to meet you sometime.

Hi Everyone,

I don't know if you heard, but Park Nicollet has created a new meeting just for their Lap Band patients. The first ever meeting is at 6:00 PM on February 1 - Wednesday. I understand there will be monthly meetings for the time being - on the first Wednesday of the month.

The meeting will be held at 5050 Excelsior Blvd. in St. Louis Park. This is the old Citizens State Bank building and it's in front of the main Park Nicollet Clinic buildings.

Dr. Weatherille is also my surgeon and I'd love to me you and other PNC bandsters.

See you there!

I just got some info about the band meeting today. I plan on going tomorrow night as long as my schedule doesn't change.

Hope to see you there!!
