Re: Need your help - Joe's OA group

[Guest guest]

You're right there is something weird going on. when I searched for WLS I

came up with a listing for

12 WLS-OArecovery

This group is a support group for those who wish to continue to follow the

12 step compulsive overeater's program who choose to use weight loss surgery

as a tool in their recovery. We feel that the 12 step program can help

maximize the effects and value of our recovery.

92 For Members

when I clicked on it the page said:

Oops...

There is no group called WLS-OArecovery.
