I've told friends and family, but have chosen not to tell those at work. I wouldn't call it a supportive working environment. I'm so glad to hear yours is; that's wonderful. Family has been great too since they've obviously known me my whole life and have seen my struggles with weight. Friends have fallen into two camps; "normal" folks have been great,and the "skinny" friends I've found that just don't understand. Some of those have been against it and some have had the initial 2-minute discussion and it's never come up again.

Sorry to hear this weekend's meetup due to the weather, but I understand. How often does this group meet?

We used to meet once a season but we're really trying to make it once a month. It's hard because everyone is so busy. But I often meet up one on one with other NYC folks. If you ever want to meet for coffee or some such thing, let me know and I'll be happy to make plans with you. I've done it with others from this site and have met some terrific people.
