Support Groups

There is a 99% chance that I will be relocating to the St. Louis area. Being 22 months out from surgery I find I need to stay in contact with others who have had or are going to have the surgery. I need to locate and become part of a support group when I move to MO. Can anyone tell me of a support group in the St. Louis area? Thanks so very much for your help. Yvonne Clark Virginia Beach, VA

Hi Yvonne, YES... you are in luck!! NewStart has a program that you can check out. You can contact them at 1-800-245-1431 to get on the mailing list so you wont miss any upcoming meetings or get togethers. I went through NewStart, but I live in Springfield, MO whish is about a 4+hour drive. Good Luck and WELCOME to Mo. SherrieD 10.12.04 278/182/???

Yvonne, I attend the support groups at Depaul Hospital which is in Bridgeton MO, right down the highway from the St Louis airport if you know where that is, and we meet up on the first and third Wednesdays each month. Their website is http://www.depaulweightloss.com/seminars.asp . Hope this helps. Theresa
