Topic: RE: SUPPORT GROUP MEETINGS
Denise, you should call either Prodence or Del Sol and ask them if you could come to support group there. I am so sorry we are not more structured. We do not have the backing that the hospitals have, They are able to bring in more guest to speak and they have more to give. A lot of times people do not want to be bothered with small town support groups especially if they do not get paid. Please give me more ideas about how to better meet your needs in our small group but I would also ask if you could join a large hospital supported group. Just explain you would like to have somewhere to attend meeting close to you. Hope this helps Kelly

Topic: RE: I've lost 2oo lbs....

I didn't do it, my body did.  Since my RNY, it has been difficult to eat much of anything.  My stomach was very sensitive to most foods, including meat.  I am very much a beans kind of guy these days.  It also helped that I weighed in at 506 lbs at my highest.  The more you have to loose, the faster it comes off.   I have to give credit to Dr. Blackstone as well.  She is an amazing Surgeon and her team is awesome.

Topic: SUPPORT GROUP MEETINGS

Can any WLS patient attend support group meetings?  It was talked about tonight at the Las Cruces group that the El Paso meetings are more structured and sound interesting.  I did not have surgery in the area and would love to meet other people in my same boat.  If anyone knows if you can attend meeting wiht a group that did not do  your surgery please let me know and if you know how to find out about the meetings please let me know.
