| Welcome Maggie
Can I ask where are you from?? There are WLS support groups all over the world I am sure someone will help you find one if you let everyone know where you live.
This site is a GREAT PLACE to start!!
Again Welcome

| Welcome! I'm fairly new to this site too. Just got my surgery date this week, so I'm thrilled to death. Fortunately, my surgeon and his practice has a wonderful support group, it's a shame that yours did not. Best of luck to you in starting one with the rest of your friends.

Welcome, glad you found us! As far as support group help, I have never been to one, the nearest to me is too far away, and I have no idea what they do there!! Some of the ones on here go to one, maybe they can share what they do there!
