I promise you that you'll be welcomed warmly here! I went to WVU (won't tell how long ago) and you'll feel like 'home' in no time! Welcome to WVA! ---Barb A

Hey Guys :wave:

It's wonderful to be able to come to this site everyday and know it's here and available for us! Obesityhelp for many years now has been my home away from home. It's been wonderful coming here each day and knowing that I can help someone or support someone, but also knowing I'll get the same support in return. This is what makes it something I come back to each day.

It takes a lot for a site of this magnitude to stay up and running with all the members we have now! WOW!

My biggest thing since surgery has been to give back. There are many ways to give back, you can volunteer to help on the site.
There are many things you can do:
You can start your own support group in your area
Email Monica Ganz to become a Chapter Leader! ([email protected])
Help other members by pointing them in the right direction on the site
If you are not comfortable with guiding other members you can also give back by posting to your profile. Many members read profiles daily. It's not a requirement to share your story, but I do so to help others.


There are some who are able to financially help this site and what another great way to give back, not to mention you get a nice "sponsor tag" added to your profile page too!
I'm a proud sponsor myself :jump:
Here's a link for more information:

Regardless of how you help, it's the little things that mean so much, even signing a surgery support page is another example of this. So take a moment of your time today in memory of our dear Momma Angel :angel: to welcome another member or even sign someone's surgery page. That little support to another member can mean so much, remember how it meant to you?
Look at all these upcoming surgeries!

Thanks guys really appreciate it! Sorry it took so long to reply like I said before I don't have internet at my house anymore due to financial problems. Only 3 days left my nerves are going every which way but other than that everything else has calmed down.
