A secure and friendly environment for those that have had weight loss surgery or are interested in learning more about surgery. Group members receive up-to-date weight loss information, consider issues in context of the history of obesity, and have the opportunity to discuss personal or professional issues that arise from losing weight. Education is also provided for nutrition, exercise, and behavior modification skills. The support group is hosted by a dietitian and bariatric coordinator. Studies have shown that bariatric patients who regularly attend support group meetings and follow-up with their surgeon have the greatest long-term success.
