Phooey! And I was really looking forward to going to the support group in Richmond. Maybe I'll try to start one at Kaiser of Marin. Any tips from anyone?

Hi Sherri, Don't give up on Richmond but if you could start one in

Marin, I would kiss your feet. You know my belief is that there are

no fat people in Marin, only me. I looked for a support groups but I

have never found one for anyone here. Maybe you can find one. I

heard there was one, not just for Kaiser people, but I have never

been given any info on it. I would go if there were one in Marin,

that is for sure. Love, Lilka
