Long Island, NY Support Groups



Recommended Posts

Hey all, Just wanted to give the info to my Long Island, NY friends! There are a few groups in the Area.

Nassau County

Post-Ops Supporting Each Other (POSE) Is the support group I have been running for two years. We meet once a month at my office in Baldwin (1st Thursday of the month) and once a month at Panera bread In East Meadow (3rd Thursday of the month) 7pm - 8:45pm

Suffolk County

Second Chance At Life Every Day (SCALE) is a support group my good friend Heather runs every other Saturday morning at 9am in Sayville.

Good Samaritan Hospital runs a support group on the opposite Saturdays from scale at Good Sam Hospital. It is open to all. Also at 9am.

They are all free and excellent groups!

Hi my name is Elaine and I have a little support group of men and women from Nassau and Suffolk Counties that meet up. Our next meet up is June 3rd 2pm at Panera in Garden City. We take turns meeting in areas of Nassau/Suffolk County. If interested please feel free to come. We are all at different stages in our journey. I am 9 months post op and down 78 pounds already, but have had stalls along the way and 15 pounds from goal. Elaine

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
