Looking for Chicago area WLS peeps



Recommended Posts

Hi all! I live in the suburban Chicago area. A few of my Bariatric friends and I are looking to create a non-hospital based support group that meets weekly.

Our aim is to create a safe, happy environment where we can share, support and help one another. Weekly attendance isn't mandatory but we have decided that for many of us having that weekly touchstone can help keep us more accountable. We will branch out to cover different topics suggested by group members, do some fun things together ( an outing here or there) perhaps a clothing exchange program etc.

If interested message me here and I'll send you the link to our group!

Thanks!

Lisa.

I haven't had the surgery and am looking into options since my insurance will not cover it. But I would love to get some feed back on your experiences etc.

I would be interested as long as it isn't too far and the time works. Weekends are better for me bc I have two small children.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
