Welcome!!! Whether you are just exploring the idea of Weight Loss Surgery or you've already had it, come and join our group. This group is primarily for residents of Manatee and Sarasota counties on the west central coast of Florida, but anyone is invited to join. The group mission is to provide pre-op and post-op information and support for all types of Weight Loss Surgery - RNY Gastric Bypass, BPD, Gastric Banding, etc. In the near future, we will also offer a live support group in the area with scheduled topics and guest speakers, as well as open time for discussion.
