Support Group, Coffee Groupand Facebook Group Leaders or Organizers
I'm trying to compile a centralized list of all the Support and Coffee Groups around the province.
As a local support group leader I get contacted all the time with people asking me about meetings in other cities and towns.
Could you please PM me your groups information along with contact and dates of your meetings and get togethers?
If you have a Facebook group could you please send that info also and whether your group is closed or private or how to join.
Did you know there is a listing of Support Groups on the Ontario Bariatric Network Website? I have no idea how current it is.

Cambridge has a group every Sunday and Wednesday. It is an informal coffee group, rather than a formal support group meeting. We have lots of fun and conversation...and any question is welcome. We have formed many friendships, gym buddies, social events etc. Come on out!
Sunday - Starbucks at Sheldon and Hespeler Road in Cambridge. 6:30-9pm
Wednesday - Cambridge Centre - back end of the food court by the rink - 7pm
We have a CCC facebook group, but it is "secret". My "name" there is also EricaFG, and anyone is welcome to friend me and message me to ask to be added to the local group.
