Hello Everyone,

The last group meeting was great. We had three new post op's members join us. Teresa, LSasha and Raquel thank you for coming out. As I said so many times that day, Teresa reminded me of my friend Angie. So out going and sweet as can be. I was really able to open up to you. LSasha you are a very nice person. We will need to talk more next time. Raquel we didn't really get a chance to talk much but I look forward to meeting with you again. We had not seen Billie Jean in a while and I was happy to see her walk in. I'm glad you are learning how your new banded tummy works. It helps to see others and how they are handling things after being banded. I Will join you guys soon and be able to share my story. I can't wait. To the rest of the group hugs to ya all.

I'm still working on the next location... any sugesstions? I know we want to meet in Bowie and I have a few places in mind. I want to go check on one place. I will ride out there sometime this week.

Talk with ya soon, Karen

Hi Karen,

I was just emailing Raquel. Carrabbas does not open until 3pm on Sunday ...so that's out. Other choices are Jaspers, Unos, Olive Garden, DuClaw, Applebee's, Chili's, On the Border, Rips, Longhorn.... Let me know what you think. ANd no reason to ride out here...I'm right here. Let me know what you need I'll be glad to check out a place or whatever.

All are welcome. Looking forward to seeing everybody.

Cristina

Oh wow the next meeting will be right after a fill.....no tall or short cake for me. Hey Karen you are too sweet as I have said before. We all admire you for what you are doing and standing up for others who may not be able to. Keep up the good fight. How is Breakfast coming along.....did I see a cappicino in your pocket?

Good Morning Stocky.

Hi Crystal

Oh how nice of you. As you can see I'm the quiet angelic one, right Teresa :paranoid :devious

Yeah LSasha you are real angelic....:cross-eye ...ouch I tripped over.....is this your pitch fork.....girl pick it up.

Christina that would help me out alot thanks. Can you tell me more about Jaspers ? I have never been there, although I pass right by there all the time. The place I was looking in to I just called today and the phone has been turned off lol. I guess we won't go there.

Teresa ... damn you got some good eyes girl. That slim fast Cappuccino delight was good. My husband also liked it. But I think for myself I would have to do a different flavor each day or something. Thanks for the tip.

Looking forward to meeting again soon... Karen

Hello everyone I can't wait till the next meeting. I have been forgeting about breakfast again since i have been back at work. i need to buy some cap. delight for here. I need o start posting every day to the what are we eating thread maybe it will help me eat better and remember breakfast. Well can't wait to see everyone again and hope to meet new people. So anyone out there who isn't already in our group keep watching to see where we will be and come on out. Everyone is welcome.

Hi Karen, and everybody

I spoke to a couple of folks and .... I was thinking maybe On the Border would be a good choice. I think we will have a few on mushies that week, due to fills etc. Mexican has lots of mushie choices. What you all think?
