New Group for those 1 yr+ out of RNY and having disordered eati http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/post-RNY_Eating_Disorders/
This is a support group for people who have been through the Roux-en-Y weight loss surgery are at least 1 year out and who now have an eating disorder/disordered eating or continuance of a pre-RNY eating disorder. This support group will be a safe place for members to tell their stories -share their struggles - and help others in recovery. This is NOT a "how to" group. This is a group that will focus on recovery and how to use the WLS tool. We are not doctors or counselors - just others going through the same experiences.
What is said (written) on this list stays on this list. If you want to share someone's story with someone else please ask permission and always change or remove someone's name and/or e-mail address before copying - if you have received permission.
Any flaming - spamming - or sharing without permission will be reason for removal from the group.
These guidelines may change (get more stringent) as time goes on. This is intended to be a safe place - We will always strive to err on the side of safety rather than putting someone at risk.
MEMBERSHIP: While we do not wish to exclude someone in need, membership to this group will be limited to RNY post-ops who are past the honeymoon phase (at least one year post-op) of weight loss and are dealing with eating disorders in their struggle to achieve or maintain normal weight. We feel this is an important part of keeping our group a safe environment for all members and appreciate some may disagree.
Please be SPECIFIC when you apply for membership and state your RNY surgery type & date, and eating disorder/disordered eating issues so we do not inadvertantly deny you.
