I'm very interested in becoming leader or helping to get the New York chapter up and running. I'm a year post op and have helped 2 people like myself prepare for gastric sleeve surgery. I wanna help more people in every way possible achieve weight loss success like I have. It is truly a life changing event. I'm currently a student I'm music engineering school. My weekends and some evenings after 5:30 are free

I hope to see some of you.

Good afternoon, I just had my surgery a week ago and looking for support from others that are going through the same journey I am. I live on LI and looking for fellow Long Islanders and the group if I could join

Hi laney,

How are you feeling? I had my surgery in Feb of this year. I don't have a group that I attend but am more then happy to offer whatever support I can to you. Feel free to contact me directly.

Blessings to you,

Kim

Hello. If you're in Manhattan during the week and have too-large clothes to give away and need some clothes, the clothing exchange may be for you. The link will take you to the information. I've been organizing these free events since 2010, after losing my first chunk of weight thanks to surgery.

Is this group still active? I see some recent posts. I'm still pre-op, but I am building my community now and meeting all different people. If there is another meet and greet I would be interested in attending.

Hi @ginabee38. Unfortunately, not really as there was some interest at first but it waned over time. Lisa and I however are around still and can help with questions that you have. Also...I'm in Manhattan and would be happy to meet up with you if you are in the area.

That's sweet...I'm on Long Island and go to Manhattan every once in awhile, so a meet-up could be fun.

We can aim for any time -- pre-op, post-op, in-op! Wouldn't that be different?

Sounds great! How far out are you two?
