Is there an Illinois, non-Chicago area group?

Keep seeing Chicago area. Any groups for Non-Chi sleeves?

    Getting the sleeve is one of the best decisions I've ever made. I had no side-effects after the surgery and have lost 50 lbs. I could be losing faster if I was taking more care in what I ate but really loving life and now look how I've always felt.

    I'm in Elgin. Surgery was held at Alexian Bros in Elk Grove - Kane Center. I'm looking for a local support group or some folks with more experience post sleeve. I'm struggling a bit with just about everything and I've only lost about 25 lbs. I know I need some sort of re-education on what foods I should be eating. So, I'm looking for a mentor.
