Brief Stats: lost a significant amount of weight with a gastric bypass almost 3 yrs ago, have kept it off but need to lose more; slight disability; never have had ANY support or connection from another WLS peer or support group; have joined several Facebook groups but I find them to be much too judgmental and quite impersonal; moved to a new state 2 years ago and have been looking for peer support but with no vehicle I am unable to attend the ONLY group I found way across town; CURRENTLY FRUSTRATED AND LOSING MOMENTUM

Any suggestions for locating joint buddy support (not just a group) with someone who has at least as much WLS experience as myself (I would be a great buddy too) on this forum or any other location?

Thanks In Advance

@zsnaani I wish you the best in finding the support you DESERVE.

I was probably by happy accident that happened upon this site. My dietitian merely suggested that I join an online group; she didn't suggest one in particular. I'd probably be in a much different state of mind had I joined the Facebook groups you described. No wonder you're feeling so down.

I wish I were the person you're looking for. I long for a face-to-face friend to buddy with.

Hopefully, you'll be able to find someone in Georgia.

...thanks for the reply I wish you well
