Looking For A Support Group In The Hawthorne/la Area

I had my surgery 6 weeks ago and although I don't regret it I am feeling a little alone in that none of my friends or family have gone through the surgery. It would be nice to meet others that are going through this same experience.

I've only had one fill about 2 weeks ago and feel like I need another. When I went to get my fill I did a barium swallow and thought wow this is really going to give me restriction, but soon found out that I could pretty much anything. When did you start feeling restriction. Are you working out?

I guess it's time to schedule another appointment. How are your friends/family handling your surgery.

I only told 5 prople because I didn't want to hear negativity

I'm not on here much I'm on my fitness pal most of the time it's alot of bandsters on there

I haven't told many people either. However, coming from a hispanic family and a mother who shares everything with everyone it's been tough keeping it low key. But telling my mom to be discrete especially when she paid for the surgery was next to impossible. Most have been supportive and the ones that didn't think it was a good idea were because they were concerned about me having surgery in Mexico.
