Hi Charlie,

I had my gastric bypass at the Leeds Nuffield on 29th November, and would like to attend the next support group. Can you tell me when this will be, please? Also, what is your Facebook Page called?

Thanks,
Liz

Thanks Charlie, I found the FB page at the second attempt, I was just being a bit thick! Anyway, I hope to join you on 26th Jan, and look forward to meeting others at all stages of weight loss.

Hey Ashlie, I have the same question as you! I'll also be having my op (hopefully) at St James with Mr Pollard. I'd like to join a support group. I've heard there is one on the second Monday of each month at Weetwood Hall.

Could anyone let me know more about either support group - it would be much appreciated
