Question:
I am looking for people who are interested

in talking about their WLS journey. I am pre-op and there are no support groups in my area, only Portland and they only meet once a month. Really I don't think it matters were you are....just needing to have people who are going through the same stuff and are willing to share the experience. Thanks!

I am two years out and would talk to you whenever I can. Let me know what you want to talk about. Good luck. My support group is a community away from me, but I chose to belong to the on-line support group. Have you checked into one of those in your area? Helps me and I don't have to travel or leave my office. I do it right during my noon hour at work. Check into it. It works for me.

I have a wealth of information on my page. Just click on my site and read away. You can do that with anyone on this site that has their page open to public view. There are a lot of stories that can help you. Don't forget to get a few good books and do a lot of research on your own. Your body is so different from everyone elses, you need to know the facts and then apply them to you as it fits. Take care, Patricia P
