Question:
Anyone know of Support Groups in Dallas/Ft. Worth Area?
I just moved to Euless, Texas and would like to continue going to a support group. Does anyone know of a good one around? I would like one that is sponsored by a surgeone or bariatric doctor so that I can find one in this area. — Lori W. (posted on November 20, 2001)

Yes. There is a support group called Dallasites. You can get to their
message board by visiting Yahoo.com and finding groups. Search for weight
loss surgery.

I belong to a yahoo group called Dallasites. It is an e-mail support group
and we often times get together and meet. Plus there we also post local
doctor support group meetings. I know Dr. Provost, Dr. Veniga, Dr.
Alexander, Dr. Barzune and Dr. Horrilleno have support group meetings in
Dallas. You can check each doctor out personally if you like. Good luck
and hope to meet you soon at one meeting or another!
