Our little gastric bypass/weight loss surgery support group is really growing! It is so exciting. I know a lot of people, like myself, had surgery in San Francisco or other areas far away from their home and can't make it to support group meetings, so it's nice to have a local group of people. I am also really excited that a couple of people have found the group through my blog.
We meet once a month -- the first Tuesday of each month from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at John Muir Hospital in Walnut Creek, California. We welcome pre- and post-op patients. We have gastric bypass, lap-band and gastric sleeve patients in attendance. There is no cost to attend. You can also bring friends and family for support. In fact, we encourage it!
Please join our Bari-Buddies group on Facebook for more info. Even if you aren't local, we share recipes and other fitness or health related advice for weight loss surgery patients.
