I know of two GREAT groups that are in the Cincinnati area. Both have web sites and message boards. Both are VERY ACTIVE. Just remember to put the www. in front, and the .com at the end. imnotfatanymore With this one you need to put a .org at the end. wlsbutterflynetwork Good luck, Robin W

You are on the right track. I help with a support group because I know this keeps me on the up and up with my weight and exercise. I would check out local hospitals and doctors that perform this type of surgery. One of the things I promise God if he got me through this surgery I would help others who were thinking about this surgery or post op. If you would like to email me please do so. I'm 18 months post-op and also struggle with some old habits. I hope you find the support you need to get back on track. Don't beat yourself up. Just pick yourself up and think about how you eat and exercised after surgery. Start from scratch. Start with writing everything down (what you, how much you eat, when you eat) and drink also. The same for EXERCISING. Do this for a week and be honest with yourself. Then sit down with someone (drop me a line) and lets see what adjustments you need to make. Are you eating more then 1/2 cup of food per sitting? More Carbs then protein, have we exercised at all for the day? Good Luck to you. Reach out. There are people who will help you.
