RELAPSE

Bettye, I live in Madison too. What area are you in? I'm in the North Graycroft/Apple Valley area. I attend a support group at my surgeon's office. We meet the first Tuesday of each month at 5:30. The office is located in Plaza I across the street from Baptist Hospital. Susan

It is so great to hear from all of you and I am in the Old Hickory/Heritage Dr. area and would love to attend a meeting. What are the requirements? Is there a monatery charge for the meetings. Are they having a meeting on June 6? I am very intrested.

Hi Bettye, There is no charge for the meetings and yes, we are having a meeting on June 6. Dr. Spaw will be the special guest at the meeting. You are not very far from me in Madison. I don't know what kind of protein and supplements you are used to. Have you tried The Vitamin Shoppe near Rivergate Mall? I think they carry a better selection than GNC. There is also a Wild Oats store in the Cool Springs area (I65 south in Brentwood) that carries a lot of the stuff that I've heard people talk about getting at Trader Joes. Susan

Thank you for the information and I will check them out, I have been to the vitamin shoppe before and I will check out that other place in Cool Springs to see what they have. I have to plan my trips down there due to the gas prices. I have met a friend that live that way and we usually meet up @ Cool Springs. I am looking for the folic acid/B6 tabs that melt under the tongue and soy-protien powder. Bettye

Try the meetings at Baptist Hosp...first Tue. each month at 5:30.......Pam Davis, the former co-ordinater of Williamson Med. center Bariatric program is there now, and she has had the surgery, and is a super nice, friendly, supportive gal. She is struggling to keep the Williamson group going, even tho the hospital deserted us. Billie 229/145
