Can anyone set up a group for bariatric patients, or those that have had the surgery?

Moderator edit: updated subject for clarity.

If you look through it; but still want to create another, you can, since you are registered @53nfierce,

I don’t have a desktop computer, so I don’t know if I can find a bariatric group on my phone app. Any thoughts?

I dont know how long that group has been there. But you might want to join and start posting in it. It might make it come alive. Worth a try before starting a new one.
