Fear is the lock and laughter the key to your heart
Awesome post Bernice - glad to hear you're coming around to normal. I can remember as if it was yesterday the build up to your surgery and how I lurked watching it - wondering how it would work out for me a month later. You were inspirational and confidence inspiring for me at the time. I am so glad to hear how well you're doing now.

That's the schedule at Hopkins every month. THe first meeting of the month is a talk/share meeting - it's the second Thursday of each month. The next meeting (the third Thursday of the month - confused yet?) there is a guest speaker. I have enjoyed both and find that often even with a guest speaker people hang around through the end of the meeting to give and receive support.

Thanks Cindy! That gives me hope. That's what I am looking for. I'll make sure if I can only make 1 meeting that I go to the first one...lol Although speakers give very good information as well.

That's good news. I was planning to introduce myself to people and MAKE them talk to me next time I went. It's good to know I won't have to resort to such drastic measures. lol Someone else on OH told me that it was different on other nights as well.
No, I haven't had my surgery yet...AND I'm totally jealous and happy for you. :-) I have my first consult with Dr. Schweitzer on Monday. I feel like I'll be really plugged in and get things moving. I've made appointments for almost everything already but I've got to wait it out.

I was there as well...lol, anyway the first meeting I went to it there in Oct was the typical support group setting where everyone was talking about where they were at in their journey, etc... So I know that they do have that type of metting there sometimes..., I guess it depends on if they have someone to speak on a particular subject or not. Anyway I should be there in Nov. as well, I hope I get a chance to meet you.
Have you had surgery yet? My date is 12/10/2010... Woo-Hoo. I cant wait!!!
Take Care :-)

I went to my first support group meeting at JH last week. I was expecting a group where people talk and share and it wasn't like that. We heard a very good presenter on mindful eating. It was very enlightening but I felt pretty isolated because I was new and didn't know anyone. They gave people an opportunity to talk after the meeting but, again, being new I wasn't quite comfortable.
I'll be there on Nov. 11 anyway...they'll be talking about fashion before, during and after WLS. Should be good!
