support group

I now have a date for RNY . I was hoping I could find a support group in the golden triangle area. If not, is there anyone in this area that would be intrested?? Thanks, d--

I am down in South MS, Brookhaven, but you have us all as close as your finger tips right here on OH. I am so happy for you. Let us know the date. Smiles, Jan

Hey Daphne! When is your date? Girl, you can't just lead us on and not tell us the scoop!!! We need details!!! Please come and post often and we will do everything we can to support you. Let me know the name of the hospital and phone numbers so I can check on you while you are there! We have a support group meeting in Meridian on Feb 15 at 5:30. Is that too far for you to come? We'd love to have you. Lemme know, and I will get you details on it. Nice to meet you! Smooch, Arlies

Hehe .... all of you have just tickled me!!!!! March 1st (27 days) and yes, I am going through all the emotions. I'm scared, excited, numb, I'm more excited more the anything else. I just doesn't feel real yet....... can't imagine having control over food or being less than 250lbs at that. The last 2 months have truly been an emotional rollercoaster for me, but not in too bad of a way. If I can't get anyone in my area needing a support group, I suppose I will need to decide if want to come to Jackson or Meridian. Thanks to all of you for your excitement and support. d--

So glad you have a date....WHEN IS IT????????? I'm in the Jackson area. Still a little far, but not as far as the Hattiesburg bunch! Hope you find someone up that way! HUGS Kimberly

Daphne, I live in the Pearl/Brandon area and I usually go to the Jackson meetings, but one day I hope to get over to the Meridian meeting! But please come here and post often!! We will support you in any way we can and yes please email some of us your numbers and info so we can call and check on you when your having your surgery!!! Great to meet ya girl!!! Don't be a stranger!!! God Bless, Angie Bea

Angie, Thank you for the encouragment to get involved and offer of support. Infact I am going through a lot right now .... the "sperm doner" "babys daddy" kinda thing! (Teehee, I went in to put the image between the "sd" and "bd" words and it just looked funny-bad. HaHa, my point was to just zap him.) They can be so ugly to these kids and the Moms as well...... When you said to post my #'s what do you mean?? Someone else said to do the same. Thanks, Daphne
