Hi! My name is Jay, I live in Arlington and would love to meet you all. I'm not yet banded, but waitting for insurance approval, I submitted all my papers last friday. I have tons of questions, but the first one is: Is it Ok to bring kids to dinner? If not maybe I can make some arrangement for babysitting. Looking foward to meet you... :hungry:

Hi Jay!

Pappas is definitely a family restaurant, so I think kids would be welcome. So far none of us has any young ones to bring, so we've been kidless, but I think it would be ok for you to bring them.

One thing to note, we do get pretty graphic (gross) with our discussions about banded life. It could be shocking, depending on the kid.

I'm glad you're going to come!

Definitely I’m getting a babysitter, I want to here it all, good:) , bad:mad: , graphic:omg: , gross:puke: etc… I take it all. See you there!

I think DH and I can make that. Just don't hate him cuz he only weighs 128 lbs.

[JanetC 2]

LOL, we have a couple of others that look great every time, but aren't shrinking. We love 'em anyway! And try not to look at them funny when they take large bites. :mad:

Looking forward to meeting you!

Janet, Joy and I will be doing a family thing in Plano that afternoon, but we intent to be there for dinner. Barring my having to work mandatory overtime. You know how people in Dallas get when the lights go out......sheeeeeesh! hehehe

May I get in too? I haven't been frequenting the recently because of being busy and here is an opportunity.

I was banded December 27.

[MyKdsDad 1]

Yes ma'am, all are welcome. And bring your appetite, the barbeque is quite good, too.

[JanetC 2]

We'd love to see you, Shy! And Randy, you two had better make it! :myscared: (J/K, we'll still love you even if you skip one!)

Blah, where did the pic link go? Oh well, I'll do 'em as attachments.

What a happy, friendly group of people! I can't wait.

I looked at the menu to see what was there and would go down well. I am still at an experimentation stage. My band is fickle. I don't care - it is working for me and I am happy.

Hey Janet, did Divanita send her after picture to you, also? She really needs to put it in the Before and After thread.

Hi, y'all!

Loved being with the gang again! YeeHa!

I'm still fighting a really bad sinus infection. Thanks for posting the pics, Janet! I'll try to make it on 3/24; will be in DC that week.

I wanted to bump this thread back up to the top for all of the bandsters that are in the DFW area. We will be getting together on Saturday, the 24th of March, at Pappas BBQ. We aren't a formal group, just a bunch of folks that have similar goals. The food at Pappas' is great! But the best part is the people we get to meet and visit with. So everyone that wants, come on out for a while.

[MyKdsDad 1]

Bump, again.
