MN - Minneapolis/St.Paul

Looking for folks to connect with from the northern suburbs, etc. I'm in Champlin but if we have enough folks maybe a rotation of locations to accommodate the variety of locations would be the way to go. I love a little coffee shop (can't drink it but love the aroma). Any thoughts?

    Welcome Sarah! I currently live in Burnsville, but work in Minneapolis. We are also planning to move north soon... I hope you can make it to the dinners. I went to the first one. It was fun and great

I won't be able to make it on the 20th, as I'll be on vacation. I hope to join you at some point in the future though!

Anyone from Minnesota want to connect?

I'm in MN. There is a thread on the US Local Chapters for the MN folks. I haven't met any of the others from here yet. I'm fairly new.

Where are you at in MN? I'm up in the St Cloud area.

Elk river, about 30 minutes from you

Awesome! I think there's someone in either Blaine or Champlin. There are only a handful of us from MN.

Where are you at in the process? I'm just getting starting, hoping for surgery in Nov/Dec.

I am done with my 6 month weight loss and now need to lose my last 25 pounds. It's been a gain , loss, gain, loss kind of year.

I can't find the mn chapter could you post a link for me

Awesome! I need to lose 25 before my surgery too. Thankfully, my insurance doesn't have the 6 month requirement. I think it's just one thread for MN. Let me see if I can figure out how to post a link.

Sarah562007 - this is the thread.

Thank you! And good luck to you too!

Hello! Newbie here, from elk river and work in the cities :)

Welcome Sarah! I currently live in Burnsville, but work in Minneapolis. We are also planning to move north soon... I hope you can make it to the dinners. I went to the first one. It was fun and great to talk with people that know what we are going through. I wish I'd had it when I started over a yr ago...

Yeab I would love that! I have no one to talk to about this that understands. And if I hear one more person tell me I'm taking the easy way out I may poke someone in the eyeball!
