Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group

Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.

No app that I know of but I'm on my phone now. I just saved the link to my home screen to open anytime I want. Unless I want to write a long post, my phone is my primary tool for coming here. I haven't looked for other support groups that might have apps because I like it here. FB had some groups but they turned out to be disappointing and not anywhere as supportive or helpful.

I just checked apps and there is a Bariatric Pal app. Just use the search word Bariatric

Hey, I managed to do it from my phone and create a short cut onto my home screen beside facebook :-) thank you!

I don't post on the groups on facebook bc I can't find any private groups and I just don't want everyone on my page up in my business :-)

No app yet, but I know that they have a team working on a re-design of the website. Perhaps a phone app will not be long off..... :)

Sweetconfusion,
There is a private FB group made up of people from this group. You have to be invited. It is a very good, positive group. I would need to know your FB name to be able to try to invite you. I don't know if I would also need to friend you. Let me know. If you want, you can message me on here.
