I want to get folks in the NJ tri-state area together via email and eventually have some in-person support groups in Central NJ. We get a lot of great advice on this site and I want to continue to do that, but for those of us who are close geographically, I would love to get together. And I also had the idea of playing "matchmaker" for single sleevers. What do you folks think?

More importantly I personally want and need support from all of you so anyone who wants to email can do so. I've already "met" some great people and I'd love to meet more. I've been having personal issues that I was able to "talk" about to people here and I appreciate them a lot for "listening". I also had some doubs about getting sleeved and the great folks here talked me through them.

Email me anytime or PM me here. My email is recipes (LOL) email me.

I hope to hear from all of you folks!!

Hey I'm not living in NJ/NY/PA but I will definitely be here for support!

I'm so glad you got all of your issues worked out and you have a date...exciting! Have you met and do you like the new surgeon? You know you can PM or email me anytime, this has been the best support group ever...and I've been to my surgeon's support group and this online community far outweighs that!

You've been here for support from Day 1 so I thank you and appreciate that very much!

I haven't met my new surgeon yet but I have an appointment for the 28th to meet him. I'm hearing good things about him.

Once I meet him I will be more comfortable and less nervous but I'm still very excited about getting approved and getting a date and finally getting sleeved!!

I'm definitely going to stay in touch with you and I hope you do the same. Have a wonderful holiday with your family!!

Hey there, I'm in central NJ but I had my sleeve in MX! I used to have a band that was fond by a surgeon here in NJm, but never really went to his support group. I really get more out of the online groups. I would be more than happy to get an email group or coffee/meet up going in central NJ with you! I'm 9 weeks out now and still learning the sleeve ropes!
