I might be out of town at that time but if not I would like to come. If I don't make it I definitely want to come to the next one!

Welcome, please email Mandy, our coordinator, at bariatricpaljacksonvillefl@gmail.com so she can add you to our group. We should enjoy the fun! Linda

Thank you! I just sent her the email!

So, are we meeting tomorrow?

[LindafromFlorida 1,542]

I have not heard from our coordinator through Bariatric Pal so maybe something came up. Mandy, can you tell us what is going on? I am sure something came up. I went ahead and made other plans tomorrow. I am leaving Monday for a family reunion in West Virginia for a week. Please hang in there friends and maybe later this month we can work something out. I really want to meet you all and get together. In the meantime I will check emails and messages here. We can do this! Linda

I am definitely interested and yes we can do this!!

My name is Mandy I have been in contact with Alex and I will be working with the Jacksonville chapter for local support meetings. We are working to have the first meeting in June. Please feel free to give me your best times/days so I can try to make this is accessible as possible. I will be talking to St. Vincent's Riverside today about using their meeting room. Also let me know if there are any particular guest speakers you would like to see. I'm thinking about a healthy cooking demo, maybe some plastic surgery seminars, I have someone that can help you pick out the correct workout/running shoes and he will offer discounts at his sales location. Any other requests? I figure I will talk to the local hospitals and see if they will allow us to host in their conference rooms, and we can either rotate areas or if there is a good central area we can make it a set monthly location.

Mandy, have you decided when we might be able to meet? Thanks, Linda

I hope everyone is doing well. I went to West Virginia on July 2 and had a nice trip. I am hoping we can get together soon. Let us all hang together and keep posting until we can have a meeting. Linda

Hi everyone. I hope you all are doing well. I am kind of stuck and not losing weight since the heat is keeping me inside. However I did just order a yoga dvd and low impact fitness dvd to get me out of this slump. How is everyone? Linda
