Finding excellent Non food fun activities in Austin

I just joined a few meet up groups here in Austin. Social groups, Hiking groups, groups that want to walk to lose weight and laid back happy hours. I am thrilled to find some non-food rewards for my weight loss adventure. Going to volunteer to beautify some gardens, hiking wild basin, happy hours with other singles looking to meet new people, adventure activities and helping out in our community. I am thrilled to find some active, non-eatinfg activities that where I will be able to make more friends. This weight loss journey is hard. Lifestyle changes take time but I am taking a proactive approach to re-integrate back into healthy social settings. My obesity has me very socially isolated. I go to monthly support group meetings at my doctors office but once a month isn't helping me enough. So tonight I joined a few meet up groups who do fun things in Austin. I am thrilled to have found these groups. I am going to use the time to develop satisfying activities that do ont involve eating. Just looking to replace the old rewards of eating the wrong thing with social, active activities with other people. I had been searching for a way to work out isolation obesity put me in. Yah!!!
