Welcome to Planet OSSG, the original Obesity Surgery Support Group. Our purpose is to discuss and offer support for the physical and emotional issues as they relate to obesity surgery for the morbidly obese. Topics covered include types of surgeries available, dietary guidelines, post-op reports, emotional, family, work, and recovery issues. NOTE: Virus warnings are considered OFF-TOPIC and will not be posted!
THE FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS is to go to:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OSSG/files/1MemberBusiness/PLANET%20OSSG.txt so that you will learn about our list and will be able to participate in the discussions.
The moderators specifically endorse and own the OSSGfriends list for less relevant chat, jokes and such, as these are considered off-topic for OSSG.
To join those groups, send a blank mail to:
OSSGFriends-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
or
OSSGInsurance-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
This is a high volume list, and a
moderation panel will review and approve all messages prior to posting to the group, to ensure readability and relevance to weight loss surgery. To decrease the volume of mail, you might want to consider choosing the "daily digest" option.
