Hello, my name is Sharon and I am new at this website. I had my lapband in '07. I lost weight in the beginning but I started eating sugar again. Most meats and food make me sick and I throw them up. I would like some input on support groups in my area. I had my operation in Orange, CA and it takes me 5 hours to drive there for my check ups. So needless to say I can't make the support group meetings. I live in the Central Coast of California and would love it if I could find a support group that talks about emotions around eating. Looking forward to hearing from some of you. Thanks and LOL.
