Ok, call me a glutton for punishment but I've been thinking that maybe putting together a Sleever's Rendezvous of sorts might be fun! What do you guys think? Stupid idea? It would be open to any sleever at any stage. Where would we do it and when? (I'm in the Florida Keys and it's pretty cool here...) Activities? How many days long? Anyone wanna help coordinate? Love to hear your thoughts and ideas...

Happy 2011!

It is a great idea! But far from me too.

yep, we can do it anywhere - just need feedback and ideas. Here in the Keys, we can fish, dive, snorkel, sail, kayak, get lobster, EAT lobster - lol - drink, plan a trip to Key West (party central and tons of great history). I can get hotel rooms reasonably cheap too as long as clean is the only real priority.... :rolleyes: I can put together all of the watersports activites easy peasy fwiw.

Austin is a good, central fun town too... If the majority are on the west coast, San Diego maybe?

Cool!

I can fly anywhere, and wouldn't even mind helping you organize this. For me it is about timing. I am a full time college student and work...so the summer and holiday vacations work best for me :)

Again, you guys throw some dates at me and we'll see what the group thinks!

Yes I'm all for the summer as well :) Centrally located would be best I think... so not everyone will have to travel twice as far... if that makes sense. Texas sounds great :) Of course it gets hot in summer there too... Never been there though and have always wanted to go!!!

Keep me posted. The mister is more than likely going to be deployed next year sometime since we dodged it this year because of his job assignment. We live in the NW panhandle of Florida. We have the fun activities here on the gulf as well. But, my family is in Texas.

It's much easier for me to sneak away when he's deployed, and the kiddo is out of school.

I would love to come too -- although coming from the southern part of South America means I definitely would be traveling a lot -- if it's done during the summer (preferably earlier rather than later) I could tie it in to our return trip to the States -- that would be awesome :)

I would be interested. Maybe a 3 day weekend. As long as it is continental US, I don't mind traveling.

This sounds like a great idea! I would love to meet people who have helped me so much during this process. I am in CA, Sacramento actually. Summer is always a great time for a vacation!

There has been talk of this before and it seemed like people thought Vegas would be the answer. There are usually some good deals on airfare to Vegas.

I did a Caribbean cruise and the airfare to Florida was more expensive than the cruise.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
