Weight Loss Surgery Support
If you have undergone weight loss surgery, joining one of our support groups can have a positive effect on your recovery and weight loss success. Our weight loss surgeons recommend ongoing support to help you achieve the greatest level of success.
Weight Loss Support Group
Meeting other women who are going through the same experience can be tremendously helpful to you and to your long-term weight loss success. Woman’s hosts a monthly support group meeting open to all weight loss surgery patients and patients in the process of planning weight loss surgery.
Each session is led by one of our weight loss professionals and focuses on a specific topic. Participants have the opportunity to talk about the topic. Sharing with others who are going through a similar experience often creates new friendships and special bonds — all in a comfortable, supportive environment.
Participating in a support group can keep you motivated, help you celebrate milestones and provide different perspectives on everyday successes and challenges.
Support Meetings
Our support group meetings are held on the second Wednesday of every month from 6:00-7:30 PM in-person at Woman’s conference rooms or via ZOOM virtual meeting. Meetings are free and open to the community’s weight loss surgical patients. Contact us so that we can send you more information! Call 225-215-7982 or email Stephanie.
If you’ve had surgery, are in the pre-operative process or are considering weight loss surgery, you are welcome, regardless of surgical facility, surgeon or surgery type.
Please give us your suggestions for future support group meetings.
