Previously our Groups did not have any defined Categories. They do now, and all groups have been assigned into a Category.
We wanted to wait to add categories until there were enough groups to effectively identify what categories were popular. This is how the cookie crumbled, and how many groups fell into each category:
General Interest / Lifestyle (5)
Similar Medical Circumstance (3)
Surgery The Same Month (13)
We Are About The Same Age (6)
We Have The Same Insurance Company (1)
We Have The Same Surgeon (11)
We Live Near Each Other (46)
We Started At About The Same Weight (2)
We Work In The Same Field (2)
If you would like to create a group for people who share the same common interest, by all means, please do! This is the link to create a group:
http://www.gastricsleeve.com/forum/group.php?do=create
But please check if a similar group exists already. If so, please join and participate in that group. You may see a list of all the group categories from this page:
http://www.gastricsleeve.com/forum/groups/
On that page you can also see a list of the groups you belong to, a list of new groups, and a list of recently updated groups. Check them out and make some friends!
As we move forward, suggestions for improving groups are welcome. We have some ideas how it can be improved farther, and plan to implement them, but would love to hear yours as well.
Hope everyone enjoys the changes and makes the most of our fine gastric sleeve community.
