I thought I had a strong online support group through a daily thread on the weight watchers website. We checked in every day for about ten years. We even took vacations together. Then all of a sudden it's fallen apart. And since I am the only one of the group who had wls, I am the odd person out. So I'm looking to connect with some folks, or even one FOLK, for support and maybe some fun.

I don't care if we have a lot in common.

I'm 59, had my surgery in June, after a lifetime of dieting. I've been married for 35 years. I have three grown sons, all of whom still live at home. I call them Moe, Larry, and Curley. I am the director of a drug/alcohol treatment program in eastern PA. I've been doing counseling of one kind or another for over 30 years. I am a Buddhist. I currently have one crazy Akita named Finn.

Hi fezik23! Having online buddies always helps!! I am so happy I had my sleeve, I feel so good, better each day!

Hello new buddy Frenz. We have a lot in common from profession to philosophy. Ion my 16 month of the sleeve. Say hello when every you need. Bear

Fezik23 --- I made the first post on Over 55. I will work with you to build that as a good support group. I, too, am looking for a relatively stable group.

I tried to all you all as friends, but it only let me add cowpiez. Not sure what's going on with that. I will try again when I get home from work.

Maybe it's the universe telling me to get back to work!

Hey Fizik23

I'm interested in becoming a buddy. I am 50 and also have three almost grown kids (21, 19, and 16). I had my surgery on May 14th and m down 40 lbs (slow but steady). I am an assistant director at a university in research admin.

Feel free to add me as a friend

Nancy, somehow I missed your reply. I will try to add you. Are you on myfitnesspal? My name there is the same, fezik23.
