Can someone post a link or information regarding support groups in the Charlotte area? I'm being sleeved on Oct 15th & will be in the Belmont area from Fri Oct 12 through probably Fri Oct 26th & would love to meet some other sleevers in the area while I'm in town.

Thanks!

I have the Presbyterian Bariatric Network Support Group info: Meets every 3rd Monday of each month, 6:30pm at Presbyterian Hospital Charlotte (Center Court/Bobcat Room); Every 4th Wednesday of each month @ Presbyterian Hospital Huntersville (Physicians Buildin-Community Classroom main floor); Every 4th Monday of each month @ Presbyterian Hospital Matthews (Community Rooms A or C).

Then I have info for Southeast Bariatrics Support Groups meeting 2nd Monday of every month @ The Cornwell Center @ Myers Park Baptist Church 6:30pm.

I am not sure if these are supposed to be for Presby patients or Southeast Bariatric patients only or not. There is a number to call for the Presby ones: 704-316-8000 and for the Southeast Bariatric one: 704-316-7760

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
