Just to let you know, I have only been twice but have really enjoyed meeting peers who are going through the same thing as I am as I have no local friends who have had WLS. 

We are a small group right now.  The majority of the group are RNY, we have one DS and I am a VSG.  We do not discriminate any surgery type, everyone is welcome. 

It is an OH support group so there is usually a topic for discussion guided by OH that the leaders are provided with and it is different each week.

When new members join the group, part of our time is used to go around and introduce ourselves and what surgery we have had and how long ago. It is pretty informal, just a really good place for support and to discuss anything that may be on your mind, struggles, victories, ect...

If you accept my friend request I will be able to invite you to the online group site and you can ask any questions there you would like.

Hope you decide to join us.  It would be great to have you!

Hi,  I am in located in Olympia.  I just started attending a local OH Support Group a couple of months ago located in Tumwater the 3rd tuesday of each month from 6:00-7:30.  We would love to have you join us. 

I will be attending the OH Conference held in Bellevue July 15 and 16th.  If you plan to attend and have not purchased your tickets yet, you can get tickets using our OH leaders conference code for $45 and that includes both an OH T-Shirt and tote bag.

Let me know if you would like additional information.
