CIRCLE of FRIENDS Bariatric Support group this week!!!
WHEN: THIS FRIDAY!!!!!!
WHERE: Library Center, S. Campbell, Springfield, MO
MTG Rm. A
TIME: 6:30-8:pm (we may stay later if we're on a roll!)
WHY????
This group is a peer run support group which I now facilitate. We've always been an open forum with occasional special topic/speakers. This will continue to be what COF is all about, as we begin to make a few little adjustments. Each month we will spend a portion of the meeting focusing on an issue(s) that members have a need to address in more detail...such as emotions, addictions, relationship changes, self-care, etc....life after weightloss surgery isn't just about the food and exercise and we're ready to support each other in ALL of these areas as well!!! If YOU struggle with an issue, we want you to feel comfortable talking about it at a Circle of Friends meeting!
THIS IS WHAT A PEER SUPPORT GROUP IS ALL ABOUT!!!
WHO? Everyone is welcome..pre-op, post-op, support persons, as long as you come eager to learn and share and SUPPORT!!! Everyone is asked to read/agree to our Member Covenant, which basically says that this is a "what is said here, stays here" environment, where everyone feels safe, respected, and supported.
IF YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO COULD BENEFIT FROM THIS GROUP, SPREAD THE WORD!
