    Good Morning,
    My name is Elaine and we have started a little support group on Long Island about a year ago. A bunch of us meet that are at different stages in our journey. It is very informal and nice to chat with others that are experiencing the same issues you may be during your journey.
    If anyone else from the area will like to join us we will be meeting this Saturday June 3rd at Panera in Garden City 1140 Franklin Ave at 2:30. The group consist of both men and women.
    Have a great weekend,
    Elaine

    I had bypass in 2008 and have some regain that I am determined to get off. I have started with the pouch reset with the liquids and will work my way back down to where I was before the regain.

    laney reacted to DaleCruse in I was sleeved 3 years ago today. Ask me anything.   
    Not really. I'd have to start really overeating to pack on much more. My weight has been steady for months.
    Instead of spending brainpower worry about regaining, I'll spend brainpower working on how to lose more.

    No, for me the sleeve was the right decision. I did not want to worry about the dumping syndrome you get with the bypass, but that is me. Someone else could be absolutely fine with the bypass

    I had my sleeve surgery a year ago and in May had a new sleep study. I was told at this point for me it is genetic and I will be on the CPAP. I am down 84 pounds. My Dr said most do come off it after they loose a lot of weight.
