Hi all!  I have really been looking for support groups in Portage County area.  I live in Mantua and am in need of a support group.  I know a group was trying to get together but it seems to have fizzled.  Please let me know if there are any at all.

I live in the Falls and am currently pre-op (surgery date 8/4) but I would love to check out the support group next month.  I believe support from others that have had WLS is going to be extremely helpful.  Do you think its okay to attend before surgery?  I am going to my first one at Summa tomorrow.

Denise,
There is a good support group that meets at Summa Akron City. I just posted the invite for our upcoming meeting. It has been growing steadily. Right now there are  about 50-60 people in attendance at each meeting. They always have interesting speakers. We are having a picnic this summer. Hope to see you there. I live in Portage County too. I live in Brimfield Township outside of Kent.
