That sounds like alot of fun to me. I'm not into the doctors support groups. I like the independent support groups myself. I won't be bac****il August 1st but we definitely have to get together.

I was thinking something more casual like a coffee meet-up? Just us "gals" hanging out?

The Weight Loss Surgery Foundation Of America is sponsoring this and it will be MUCH bigger than this years event!!! The WLSFA is a non-profit that was recently formed to help those not fortunate enough to be able to afford WLS.

Also, we could use some suggestions from you Vegas locals as to things we might want to incorporate into the event (speakers, locations, WLS products). If any of you have contacts at some of the hotels that could get the WLSFA a BIG discount please let us know!!!

I am moving back to Reno after a two year stay in Texas. I can't wait to get back home August 1. I also had a DS and will be looking for a support group.

I prefer it to be with all kinds of people with all kinds of the different surgeries. We are all in this to lose weight even though we chose different tools to do it.

I would love to see a support group out there.

there are support groups through western bariatric which was where my surgery was done. Good people, I have only gone once since surgery because it seems I'm always work when they have the meetings.

Is that Barry Fisher? You come out alive but he skipped the bedside manner class.  Made me cry and feel like a lab rat at one of the support groups. If I had to do it again would ask to be switched to another doctor.
