Doing my pre-op supervised diet for the sleeve. Grew up in KC and live in south suburbs. And as you guessed from the profile pic I have a dog! His name is Bo. I only grow weeds in my garden. :)
What shall I return to the Lord for all his bounty to me?
I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord, I will pay my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful ones.

I check on the Missouri and Kansas boards every so often. There are several DSers in the Kansas City area that get together for lunch every month. It's a wonderful group and we'd love more folks to join us -- any WLS type welcome. PM me if you're interested!
As far as an actual support group, I understand St. Luke's has one... the last I heard it meets on the second Wednesday of every month at 6 PM at the Plaza Embassy Suites on 43rd Street.
This thread, although several years old, has some contact info at the bottom. http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/MO/4027863/Are-there-any-s upport-groups-in-Kansas-City/

Same question here, but around the Bootheel of Missouri.

Hi I was wondering if anyone has had their surgery in Cape Griardeau Missouri? Anywhere near the Bootheel of Missouri.
I feel like I'm at my wits end. I have insurance and the insurance company told me they will cover a tummy tuck after weight loss surgery with proof of medical necessity, however, I am having the hardest time finding a surgeon that will submit to insurance for an abdominoplasty. No matter what the situation, they consider it to be cosmetic. Does anyone know of a surgeon that will submit to insurance for this type of surgery? I don't care where they are at in Missouri. Thanks in advance!
Can you mention who your doc was or feel free to PM me, I went there but my weight is still going down so we wait. But I felt totally comfortable and at ease there. If you can try Monarch PS in Overland park they repaired something for me after an injury. So Sorry this happened, I know so many who are happy with their results.
