"I wasn't sure I would be comfortable in a group of strangers, but I didn't
feel that way once I walked in the door. WOW. We had so much in common and I
now know I am not alone on my WLS journey. And Katie shared excellent
information and made the whole thing interesting and fun. She has some
amazing insights and is so profoundly inspirational, because she has walked
the walk and has overcome many of her own struggles..."
