At the Nix Weight Loss Surgery Center, we realize the journey doesn’t end when the surgery is over. That is why we have designed our support group to help produce the greatest level of success for our patients.
These meetings provide patients and family members with a forum to discuss their successes and struggles with weight loss surgery. Surgery itself will not immediately resolve emotional issues or heal the years of damage that morbid obesity may have caused for a patient, but support groups can assist patients with their short and long term needs. Studies have shown that patients with strong support systems are more likely to succeed with their weight loss goals.
We feel that we have created something truly special to assist you in your weight loss journey.
Here are some examples of Support Group topics:
- “Be the you on the outside that you are on the inside”
- Personal Accountability and Measuring your Progress
- Goal Setting
- Sleep Disorders and Weight Loss
- “Catch and Release” Clothing Exchange
- Self Esteem and Positive Change
- Sabotaging your Weight Loss
