support groups

Greetings to all and happy new year! I am desperatley seeking a support group in the northwest corner of ct. Is there possibly anything closer than Hartford. I live in Torrington? Thanks so much. Its tough to stay on track w/o a support system.

Honestly- I'm not an expert- but I'm not aware of ANY out your way. I hope someone else comes up with something for you. However- we're here and we CERTAINLY can help out with being a support system for you. Let us know if we can do anything for you! Best regards, Lisa C

Lisa thank you so much,do you attend any support groups? I joined weigh****chers just to have the accountability and advice. I've had a tough couple months recently and losing weight was on the back burner.I gained and am going tomorrow for a fill but would really like to find some support from other gastric patients. I find that my food choices are boring and I tend to eat the same things all the time. So I need advice as well. thanks Maureen

Check with Bristol Hospital. That would be the closest. Peter

Not sure if this helps but there is one at New Britain General Hospital on the 1st Thursday of the month. (tonight)

Thank You so much everyone

I too would love to have a group in this area - I am in Southbury. Can't we try and start one of our own. What is the criteria - other groups out there tell us how you got started. I too can not get up to Hartford from here. Email me Maureen - maybe we could get something started. Tina [email protected]
