There is a support group that meets at Penrose Hospital. I copied this from the Penrose Hospital website.

Lap-Band Support Group

Meets the first Thursday of the month, 6:30 p.m.

Gastric Bypass Support Group

Meets the second Friday and third Tuesday of the month, 6:30 p.m.


There are a few of us who have never met that are hoping to go to the group and meet and maybe have coffee after the meeting.
Have a great day~

I live in Peyton and would be interested in a support group in the springs area.

No problem, I don't consider it a hijack. :)  We all are just continuing in our conversation.
I think it would be great to plan a get together. Yes, you're right maybe after Christmas but then on the other hand we may need the support to do the right things for ourselves during this "overeating" time of the year.
Blessings~

Well, I sorta got some disturbing news today.  Our new insurance policy at work went into effect today.  I worked closely with my insurance agent to make sure that the policy did cover WLS before we selected it.  She informed me months ago that it did.

Today she called them to check to see what types of WLS they cover because she knew I wanted the sleeve and I've heard that some insurance companies won't approve the sleeve. She was informed by the customer service rep that UHC doesn't cover weight loss surgery unless a writer is added to the policy.   She told him that writers are not done in Colorado. Now I have no idea whether they will cover it or not.,  I'm bummed.
