Welcome to the board!

This message board is intended as a forum for Centennial WLS patients, especially those who attend the Monday night support groups led by Dr. Janice Livengood, PhD., HSP.

The board is for people to support each other, share victories, discuss challenges, or to find friends to help with accountability.

Please respect fellow WLS patients' privacy, as noted at the beginning of each support group, and focus on sharing your own personal experiences.

This board is not intended to provide or substitute for medical or psychological advice.

In case of a medical emergency, please contact your surgeon's office immediately, or go to the ER.

If you are chronically feeling depressed, anxious or experiencing emotional challenges that are more than a few online hugs can fix, please consider seeing a licensed mental health counselor to help you on your journey.

Athena Consulting has several therapists that work with Centennial WLS patients, including Drs. Livengood and Ihrig (who leads Thursday support groups, noon to 1:30 PM in the Tace Conference Room).

Dealing with obesity, even after surgery, is a life long challenge. The more tools for support you use, the greater your odds of long term success.

Hugs to you all
Denise
