My Doctors office called me today and told me that my insurance company wants me to have 3 months of medically supervised weight loss program and 3 months of Support groups, not Weigh****chers but something that is related to surgical support. I have had the lap-band and had it removed on an emergency basis. My doctors office has the medical weight loss supervision covered but I cannot tell if there is a support group offered. I checked the Web site but I think that they all  in another area.I need to find a support group in the Morris/Somerset area. Does anyone know of any that are coming up?
Thanks!
