Hi all, Quick question--is this group something I can/would want to attend if I haven't had the surgery yet? I have an appt. with Dr. Ryder in about 3 weeks and would be interested in meething others who are going through the WLS process. How long do the meetings last? Who attends? Any info would be great! Thanks, Trace

Yes, come to the meeting. It is very informal and very informational. People who are at any stage even those just considering surgery come to this meeting. It is on the second wednesday in July as stated before in this thread, due to the holiday. I look forward to meeting some people this time. Betz

Trace: you should definatly come to the support group, there are many that come that are pre-op, and Dr. Ryder will be there too! There is pre- and post-ops who come to the meeting and it is VERY informative and helpful!!
