Okay, so is anyone up for lunch (or even dinner) on say .. Feb 1st or 2nd, on Chapel Street? Kids are back in school by then .. thankfully!

With regards to dates and times, I'm so easy lol.

hEy Jess

wot about next weds lunch like at 12pm or something??

if no one else is interested we can just go to willy:) for a coffee

Wednesday would be GREAT for me (that's the first isnt it?). Eliza will be in daycare as well and I wont have to bring ANY kids with me. Yay.

And I'm happy to come to Willy too if that's what you'd prefer. It's a pretty easy trip straight down the freeway.

I can do Thursday too though, will just have a 3 year old in tow.

ah cool:)

so jess wot day suits u better??

Wednesday sounds great If Prahran or South Yarra is closer for you ladies, that's fine with me? I'm easy lol...

Wednesday's great. Is there anywhere for coffee near the Water in Williamstown? That might be nice if its warm. Otherwise, yes Prahran would be a bit closer for me, but I really dont mind.

Gosh, I'm over the 40 degree days at the moment.

yeah there are quite a few coffee places on the strand which is opposite the water

Jess we could go to the rotunda which has the views of the ocean:)

*nods* Rotunda is great, as is Sirens on the deck, for the views They do a nice salad or anykind of seafood there too.

The current forecast for Wednesday is 28 (nice!!), rain in the afternoon .. but that shouldn't effect us.

Jacqui, are you familiar with Williamstown at all? Rotunda and Siren's are both right beside the Willie public beach.

My mobile number is 0407 043 863, incase anyone gets lost or can't make it or whatever. I'll be outside near Sirens at say, 12ish?

And if ya'll know anyone from other message boards that want to join us, the more the merrier

Yep, my SIL lives in Newport so I know Williamstown enough to get there and find the place. I think it would be nice over near the water and a bit quieter than SY or Prahran.

See you there!

k.....cya girls there on weds:)

Hi to all,

I live in Melbourne and am new to this site (I just registered today). I am absolutely thrilled at the idea of catching up with other people in Melbourne who have had the band. I had my band at The Avenue Hospital in May, 2004. I have lost 55kg, but at least another 15 to go (If I am aiming at 70kg... sometimes I dream of being lower than that.. but heck, at the moment I would be glad to be below 80kgs (that was my goal by my 2 year mark, but at the moment I have stagnated and it appears a bit unrealistic).

I can't make it to a lunchtime activity because I have to work ... But please keep me in mind if you plan something in future - maybe I would be able to take some flex time.. or maybe outside normal working hours?? (although I know this would be difficult for those who have kids).

Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself briefly and say that I am very excited to have discovered the site!!

Cheers,

Kaysha.
