Sweet!
Ordered both

I'd be interested in an online support group. My center only has meetings every other month and I feel like I'd prefer to have more accountability than that!

I would also be super interested in a group that follows books and workbooks. I'm looking into the books posted above! 😃

Yay! That's awesome! Did you take the poll, please?

It's one and the same private club. We will have weekly online support meetings face to face via Zoom and will have a private group only accessible by BAC (Bariatric Accountability Club) members on FB. We will also do FB Live meetings/interviews with leaders in the bariatric world-docs, psychs, RDs, fitness people. Etc. And we will also have a book club. I think that will meet every couple of weeks? Also live face to face via Zoom.

We'll provide a basic sample meal plan that people are welcome to use, modify, make their own and we will also provide access to our MFP food diary so you can go visit it and see other examples of daily eating. There will also be free recipes and some video recipes. There will also be a cooking lesson at least every couple of weeks. And of course you can go hang out in the group and get lots of peer support as well.

I'm putting everything together now and hope to have it ready by Jan.1. I'm still trying to figure out the monthly subscription rate--trying to keep it as low as possible and still cover present and future costs.

It is NOT intended to take away from BP. It's intended as an ADDITION to our Bariatric Pal home. For those needing more in depth support.

We're also going to try to figure out how to set up appointments 1 on 1 with either an accountability partner, or with psychologists and also RDs. But that is Stage 2 down the road.

I did take the poll!

This sounds so great! Thank you for working so hard on it! If I can be of any help figuring things out, let me know!

Picked up the recommended book (it's free on Kindle Unlimited) and will order the workbook after Christmas. Really looking forward to this group.
