Watch us shrink! Here are our get-together pics from the first day we all met in person! Let's keep our comments on the Chat thread so those of us with the evil Dial-Up can view without washing our hair between page loads...LOL

Kathy I seriously want that shirt you are wearing when you are swiming in it! I just love it...and it looks SO good on you!!!

It's got your name on it. I'll take good care of it, hand-wash-in-cold water-with-Woolite-and-hang-to-dry kind of care. It's too big now, but they didn't have it in an XL. I can't wear the "other side of Dress Barn" XL, they are too small! Anyway, you are the next owner! Want the trousers that go with? They are 16Ws. They sit just below the waist with a wide waist band. They are surprisingly comfy! Anyhow, you got dibs!

... and am I the only one who noticed Kathy's collar bones? Way to go girl! I don't remember what my collar bones look like.

Karen, over on the support forum, I have a thread called "Kathy's Slow Loser NSV thread" where I posted this pic and Jan's lunch pic. Less than 10 pounds loss in my weight, but it's made a world of difference. Go check it out! I have collar bones! LOL Thanks!

Teresita Thank you so much...That is great.....

Boy you can see a change. I love it!!!!!

You all look fantastic! So how far is Hickory from Charlotte? I'm flying into Charlotte on June 26th and working in Hickory that week. If anyone is close enough, maybe we could find time for dinner.

Hickory is only a little over an hour from Charlotte. Not far at all!

Oh, I am soooooo THERE!!!!! I'm between Hickory and Charlotte. So close Leatha! I wanna meet for dinner!!!! Yippeeee!

Problem is, I don't know Hickory that well. If it's off I-40 though, I can find it. Denika? Any suggestions? Where are you staying, Leatha? (Or PM me if you don't want to post that info to the world! LOL) COOOL!!!

My plans are to fly in on Monday, June 26th. I'll be landing in Charlotte about 4pm and driving to Hickory. I don't know much about Hickory either. I've never been there before, but I'm scheduled to stay somewhere on the 13th Avenue Dr, which appears to be right off I40.

I'll be staying until Friday evening and hopefully I won't be working late hours, so I'll have most evenings free (I hope). Or, we could meet up nearer to your place on my way through Monday evening. I'm pretty flexible.

Maybe I could drive towards Kathy's way and we could ride together? Would love to meet ya for dinner. I should be able to do any evening.

Do you know the name of your hotel? It does sound like it's right off of I-40. There are lots of places to eat around there too. I can help with directions or anything too. (I'm originally from Hickory.) I am totally in if you all are going to meet up. I'll be out of school by then (I teach) so I'll be just as free as can be! I'll even meet you guys if you decide to meet in between Hickory and Charlotte somewhere. I'll do whatever is best for everyone!

Ok give me the day and time and I will see what I can do...Oh the chance to meet a fellow bandster....

Here's our July pic...
