Are there any NJ support groups out there?



Recommended Posts

I'm looking for a support goup in NJ, Monmouth or Middlesex County? Does anyone know of one? My doctor is in Staten Island and they have a support group but I was hoping for one closer.

Hello Novbeginner....I live in Massachusetts so unfortunately I can't help you with a physicial support group in NJ but there is a NJ forum here at LBT that has wonderful people in it. I know it's not the same as meeting in person but, it definately helps. Plus this post will help bump yours up so maybe someone will see it on this Monday, President's day Holiday :wub:

Good luck

Overlook Hospital in Summit, NJ has a monthly support group. I don't know the dates, but I think they are one Monday a month. Overlook has a phone directory of groups and when they meet. Give them a call. K.

Hi, I go to NJ Bariatrics Support Group. They used to be in Princeton Junction but are now in Plainsboro. They are affiliated with Univ. of Princeton Medical Center and Dr. Chau is great. There is a seminar for newbies on May 27th at the hospital and the support group meets the first Wednesday of every month at the new Plainsboro office.

Hope to see you there!:thumbup:

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
