Hi you all.  I am looking for a support group close to Folsom,CA.  Would love to go once a week if possible.  The one thru my doc only meets once every month.

I am only out 4 weeks and having problems eating food.   Met folks online but really need to get hooked into a  group where I can really get to know folks and learn how to live this new life.

Thanks if anyone will respond.

I am not familiar with your area, however, I will post on the Leader Board to see if there are any OH Leaders in the Folsom area and get back to you.

It sure is good C'ING LESS OF ME!

 

We could learn a lot from crayons: 
some are sharp, some are pretty, 
some are dull, some have weird names, 
& all are different colors....but they

ALL exist very nicely in the same box.

I am as far East you can go up HWY 50 that is still in the County of Sacramento.

South Lake Tahoe is about 70 miles east of me.  Placerville where the CA gold rush started is 20 miles east of me.  We live next to Eldorado County.   About 25 miles east of Sacramento downtown.

To the north of me is HWY 80 that goes to Reno,NV.   About 10miles from Placer County  and go to church in  Roseville.

You must have heard of Folsom prison where Johnny Cash sang about.  Not a small town at all  anymore.  Two prisons and huge IT area.  A beautiful Suburb of Sacramento.

Is that helps.

jj_in_CA,

Thanks fro sending this phone number to connect until I can find an actual meet up support group.  Unfortunately it went on at 12 noon today and I just got on my email at 1pm.

I truly thank you for this help.  I feel I live in an area that should have a support group and am surprised I can not find one being in Sacramento County. It is unbelievable that I am having this much trouble.

  Feeling the pain.  Needing a group!
