Bikergrammy, I forgot to tell you that some of the gang going on the cruise are meeting for lunch next Saturday at Pappasittos in Humble. Sallyjo is one of them. I'm going and so is Pinkylee from our June group. Maybe you can join us. It should be fun to see some of the others on lapbandtalk. Let me know.

Tai Chi at May Community Center. Free Wed. at 6:30 PM or Wed at 7:30 PM. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Register at 281-324-3373. (Also yoga at 6 PM Tues and Thurs)

so - do you have to live in huffman to use the may center?? i soooo want to do tai chi!!!

sure had a great visit with Barbara and Suzanne last monday at humble city cafe. where and when is the next get together?

[barbara465 2]

I believe the next one is week from Monday. Can we make it at 6:15 so I can go to Tai Chi? Humble Inn or La Villa, either one works for me.

I wanted to go to the opening of chocolate. How was it? The concept and the designs looked great in the paper. Dick thought it was too much temptation for me. He was right, but I still want to go.

The lunch is Saturday at Pappisittos at 11:30 for those that want to meet up with the lapbanders that are going on the cruise. SallyJo is organizing it.

You don't have to live in Huffman or anywhere to go to the May center. It is a free community center for all.

Hi Friends, just an FYI...If you haven't read "Fighting Weight" by Khaliah Ali...you ought too. She's Mohamed Ali's daughter and she's been banded. She wrote this book with her surgeon and it tells the whole story. Much of it is her experience but her doctor writes a good bit of it. I wish our doc's would have read it. We would be much better informed by now if they had. She went from 325 to 150 and I think she's 5'7'' or 5'9''. Anyway I found it so helpful. I didn't know it takes us about 3 years, to get the total weight loss. It talks about fills and how much and when we should get them. What to eat and when. Lot's of things I'd never heard. I got it at Barnes and Nobles.

I forgot the most important part of the book!!! The doc has had the surgery himself!

Good for you Bikergrammy! I fell off the wagon into the ditch on my husbands Bday not even mine:( I'm happy for you, and I've climbed back up out of the ditch.

I havent logged on in forever. I was wondering if any one still meets in Humble on Mondays. I would love to attend. Hope to hear from someone soon.

anyone in the 1960/249 area?

Chocolata sounded so good in the paper! IMO it was diappointing. The chocolate was bland. Most of the recipes hadn't been made...It was basically ice cream with toppings... There were too few people and not well trained, and the store was just that...a glorified ice cream store with a few places to sit down. I don't know what happened to all the other stuff in the paper, or the high powered design guys they listed.

Hi everyone. I haven't posted much lately, but I am still with you in spirit. When Lupus rains, it pours. I had to go on more meds for Lupus, and they weakened (further) my bones, so my last Tai Chi class resulted in a couple of cracked vertebrae and compressed disks. Add to that the usual Lupus symptoms, and I've been a whiney blob. Connective tissue pain and kidney malfunctions among the many symptoms.... Oddly, I'm sort of used to it, so I'm bouncing back pretty well...hence my trip with hubby and relatives to the opening of chocolata. Another few weeks, and I should be able to do exercise beyond a light stretching. I'm not moving, so I'm not losing weight, but not gaining either,so I'm content. I'm basically caring for dogs, resting, and firing up some summer jewelry---some diamond stack rings, a weird citrine and smoky quartz ring that I alone like, and some summer stuff in mixed aquamarine and light tanzanite. Just tinkering and putzing. I never thought I'd say this, but I miss exercise!!!!! I'll see you at the next dinner, and I'm looking forward to it!
