    Small world Don! How many other members do we have that want to meet?

    I can say one thing...if we meet up we should bring the protein, vitamins or diet foods that we tried and didn't like to see if the others would like them. I hate throwing stuff out that is still date good. I have Isopure in grape and fruit punch, Protein powder pouches unopened, B12 lozenges and a few other things I don't use. Heck I have Syntrax twisted cherry and Fuzzy Navel I opened but, only took a couple scoops from because I tried one and gave some to my neighbor because I just can't drink it. I'm willing to share that too.

    Savers, Salvation Army and Thrift stores are the best to buy from while losing. The day after Thanksgiving Walmart usually has jeans on special for about $10-16 bucks too.
