Curious

I am just curious as to who all on the board is OH certified support group leaders. I know that several on here is certified thru OH but was just curious as to how many support group leaders we have.

LOL... I didn't mean to delete that last message. Sorry... my editing got the best of me. LOL

Anyway, I was trying to say that I am a certified OH support group leader but I am not currently leading a group. I am thinking of starting it up again possibly at the first of the year now that I actually can put my full effort into it. We will have to see what is on my plate at that time.  

Gail I sent you a PM. I was just being curious is all. Trying to see how many groups we had going in the state. This way the new ones could see where a group was closest to them.

Not a bad idea at all.

I am disappointed that OH doesn't list the support groups by state anymore.
Kat C was doing a great job posting the calendar for awhile but got off of that...maybe I should start that up again being I am on the boards my often now.  What do you think? Or did you wanna do it?

Gail you have a good idea. By all means go ahead and do it. As I always tell every body I am not computer smart. Thanks for doing it.

Julie also has a support group too.  I don't know if it's in Gulf Shores or Foley

Louise, Connie Terry (Teal Rose) and Sandy Crews (Sweet Bama) are OH Leaders.  They lead our Support  in Mobile.  It is called Slim Chance.

Our Support Group is in Gulf Shores and is called Weigh Down.
Cynthia also got certified and is such a HUGE help!!!
I started our own newsletter and August was the first one. I think it went over well and I included info on the cruise, our meetings, the Walk from Obesity (we will be walking in Pensacola), and links to OH, a favorite recipe (I will include one a month), and of course links to the Bama Board!!
I started with a 2 page newsletter and named it "Weigh Downer".. I hope to eventually have it grow into a 4 page newsletter with everyone in the support group taking part and sending info in!
I am so glad that we have OH and that they gave me the support need to go out and start this local group.. it's already made differences in people's lives and I know it will continue to thrive.
 

Great going Julie.  Do you send your newsletter by email??  I'd love to have a copy.
