Come join us. We are bandsters without a local support group, and we're going to meet, say hi, and chat about possibly starting our own group.

We are meeting this Wednesday December 13 at 6:30 PM at Humble City Cafe near the SE corner of the intersection of 1960 and 59, on Main Street.

Let me know if you're coming and I'll make a reservation in the name of Bandsters.

Wednesday the 25th at what time and where?

Nara Thai

18455 West Lake Houston Parkway

Wed 25th 5:30 PM

The new person is Rebecca P.

Count me in. Besty can you tell me how to get there from 59. Thanks.

Suzanne.

East on 1960. Just before you get to La Villa, turn right at Walgreens (W Lake Houston Pkwy). Drive a few blocks and you'll see shopping strips on the right. I think it's the second one. There's a Forever Young MediSpa next to it.

Dick and I went there for dinner tonight. I had shrimp in a mango sauce. Dick had bean and beef in curry sauce. Both were good. Shrimp was in a sweet/sour sauce so it was good. Not hot at all. I even had a little bit of fried rice. Yum.

Thanks Besty, I will be there. It will be fun trying something new.

Suzanne.

got this private message from Cynmen.....

Betsyjane, I see you are a Dr. Spivak veteran. Your BMI also looks in the neighborhood of mind. How have you done since your banding? I anticipate surgery in mid-late May. Waiting for CIGNA response now.

Hey that's great! It's a wonderful journey to embark on. My weight loss has been in fits and starts as I learn new things....but my overall average weight loss has been just under 2 pounds a week. That's certainly a first for me! One of my odd benchmarks is t-shirt size, and I've dropped 4 t-shirt sizes. Are you coming to one of our meetings?

Do you mean Spivak's meetings on Tuesday? I will go to as many as I can. I live in Clear Lake so it's not 100% convenient, but I will try. How many folks show up generally?

Oh...I thought you were up here since you're in the Humble Kingwood group! I've only been to one Spivak meeting, and it was crowded...a full house. Lana and I went and I think we both got a lot out of it. But it's a long way for us too, so we'll go infrequently.

If you're ever up our way, come join us!

Hey Gang - I had to re-register with a different email address before the board would allow me to post... Don't know what in the world is up with that!!

Hey girl, good to have you back. I was asking about you. Hope to see you Wednesday.

SaWatDi. (That's Hi in Thai) I missed the last get together, so I'm soooo looking forward to seeing everybody!
