The New England Weight Management Institute (NEWMI) at CMC offers monthly support groups designed for pre-operative and post-operative weight loss surgery (bariatric) patients.
Some of the support group sessions include:
- Post-operative patients discussing their experience, questions and concerns
- Behavioral health specialists who focus on behavioral approaches to weight control
- An exercise physiologist who discusses the importance of exercise and demonstrates exercise tactics
- Protein taste testing session where you can sample some of the high protein supplements needed for post-operative recovery
Join us! Listen and share challeges and successes with others who are going through a similar weight loss journey.
