I would love to lead or co-lead a group in my area. I am a health professional that has specialized in working with bariatric patients for over 10 years. I did not have bariatric surgery but I was obese for over half my life. I have lost over 70lbs and maintain a healthy weight. I am a true believer in support groups and being around people that understand your struggles and maximizing on the positive energy of being with a group of people who are on the same journey of health.

I have a flexible schedule so support group days/times could vary depending on the demand.

It's good that i saw this post. I'll be in and out of the rahleigh/mooresville area for a cpl weeks here and there for work. I was just looking on the internet earlier this morning for a support group i could attend while being in the area. I'm gonna miss my 1st support group meeting because i'll be there monday- friday and the meeting is tuesday. It would be very nice to interact with someone that is on the same journey as i am.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
