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.

Feb 5th works for me. The restaurant is not crowded that early on a Monday night so I think we can just grab a table and add to it if more show up.

That's a little early for me . . . I can't make it.

Rhonda-what time can you be there?

probably not until 6:30 -- I work downtown until 5:30 pm and I have a little one to attend to also. It might be 7:00 before I can get there. :straight

Everybody OK with 6:30 and late stragglers are welcome? Let's do a head count of who's coming.

If we just end up with two again, we can always go to the Houston or The Woodlands meetings and not do our own......

I can do 6:30pm on Feb 5. Hopefully will be bringing hubby and my Mom along also.

YAY! So February 5th at 6:30? What is the location? By the way I had the LapBand on October 2nd. Dr. Alanis at Innova hospital did my surgery. I have lost 45 lbs so far, and I am so happy someone organized this.

OK 6:30 is fine with me. I'll be there.

and that's at Humble City Cafe, right?

Humble City Cafe on Main Street. 6:30 PM Feb 5th. Unless we hear that someone can't make it and we need to consider alternatives..... I'll have a sign on the table that says BANDSTERS.

I would love to be there but I have school and work to attend. Is Friday night an option or the weekend?

BetsyJane, maybe each month you should hold the meet a different day & time -- that way everyone can make it.

I'll make an appearance at 6:30 that day but I need to leave quickly because it's a friend of mine's birthday. We're having a party for her at 7:00!

Fridays and weekends are great for me! Couldn't we just meet at Starbucks in Humble on a Sunday afternoon?

I am not banded yet but I am in the process. I would love to meet with you guys and "shoot the breeze". I work nights though so Sunday is a great day - Afternoon/Evening...I go to church in the AM.

Starbucks is a great spot - the only thing is there coffee/frappuccinos/etc. are so high in calories and I get weak when I see there SIGN that I would hope we didn't have it there all the time.

I know there is a Subway, Pappasitos, and others around there that we could meet, but I'm good. Maybe I will use that day as my reward day and have a "low fat" drink or something.

You are never going to find a perfect time for everyone. It is better to have a regular time for the meetings so everyone will know when they are. If others want to meet at a different time occasionally we can post that. That way some of the ones that can't meet on Monday at 6:30 might want to join the group when an additional meeting is scheduled.

Some Sunday at Starbucks or Panera's in Humble would be fine with me.

Sunday is great for me!
