I am sure the good people on here will help you out with finding a group. Lots of us have used this forum to chat and find advice. Its a wonderful group, we have all be through it and between us have had every problem going related to the surgery and recovery.

I came to this group before my surgery because I wanted to talk to people in all stages of the process. I was excited and overwhelmed and had absolutely no clue what to expect at all. My area offers online support groups, but nothing in person. I do have access to a nutritionist through my surgeon's office, and I've used her on occasion, but not as much as I thought I would. For a coach, well, I don't have one. I kind of had to become my own coach. I have a personal trainer through my gym (and my cousin, who does that for a living, so the coach at the gym helps with the equipment and my cousin helps with the exercises and whatnot). I decided that if I was going to have an online support group, it might as well be here on this site, where I've established relationships for the last year and a half. People on here actually GET IT, you know?
