Our members represent a cross section of patients. We offer many ways of interacting and sharing knowledge with fellow long-term post-op bariatric surgery patients. We try to give you a chance to be around people who are in your spot and understand you best. We are here to help each other without judgment or prejudice.

 If you feel that Movin’ Forward is a support group that is for you, we encourage you to attend our May 18 meeting a****erloo Family Restaurant. Please note that you must RSVP on our website. Space is limited and reservations will be on a first come, first served basis. We look forward to seeing you at this meeting.

I went to Cinci and had a great time. Well worth the trip. I am hoping to afford the trip to NY if I can.

Topic: Urso

As most of us know, crushed Urso has to be the worst tasting medicine EVER!
I wanted to pass this info along to anyone who lives in N.E. Ohio and is having a hard time with the crushed and would love for someone to make it in liquid form ~
I searched and searched until I found an amazing pharmacist who said he'd be more than happy to make it for me!
So..if you can't stand the crushed any longer call Triangle Pharmacy in downtown Ravenna. Their number is: 330.296.8508

I went to Rye NY and it was a blast.  My plan was to do Atlanta as well but I was sick and gave away my yix.  A few good friends went and said the folks were not as friendly and out reaching to strangers there alone as were the NY group. 

Still, social or not there is much to learn.  Perhaps not as much for someone as far out as you but get there early day one for the best samples. 

I hope to make it myself since its not very far.  The biggest issue is that heavy LI traffic can suck ass big time, lol.  I will pm if i'm going to make it.
