I have a pretty flexible schedule for the next meeting or time as I'm single and don't have kids or spouse conflicts to work around so whatever you pick will probably work for me.

I say Polaris is probably a good bet. For consistency and ease of finding it and for Angie driving in from up north! :eek:

Ok! Since it seems that Saturday afternoon is the best bet for most of us why don't we plan to meet at Polaris in the food court at 2pm on Saturday February 9th?

Special K... will you bring the balloon and poster again? We'll be co-planners :-)

Does that sound good for everyone?

Yep, I'll bring along the poster I made and a helium balloon so you can all look for the balloon to find us. Last meeting we were just in front of Great Indoors where it was a little less noisy and less crowded but just pick a spot, we'll find each other with the balloon.

ok it is marked on my calendar with a sharpie!!!!! I can't wait to meet you all. On a biggest loser team at work weigh-in is Monday.I think it is cool my work is doing this to encourage a healthier life style they even gave us a week with a personal trainer. I haven't used that yet as I am taking classes at the Y 4 days a week. I wonder what my team gets if they win? I have really been working hard exercising 4 days a week and logging everything I eat and my scale seems to be stuck. I hope it decideds to move down on Monday.

Angie, log in Polaris Shopping Place...that's the mall. Or log in "The Great Indoors" which will put you right next to the food court. It is right off of 71, before you get to the outer belt of 270.

I can't wait to meet everyone.

Hi HeatherA,

Yes, I'm with Fresh Start! I'm nervous and was expecting to have my information sent to insurance no longer than Thurs. But they were faxed on Friday evening. Meaning Monday, so I guess the wait starts tomorrow. Yes, I would love to attend the support group because I need that support really bad.

Looks like Feb 9th is the day at Polaris. You can email me also: shotoftequila2003@yahoo.com

I'm so glad that you are doing better, I look forward to meeting with everyone!

Especially those of you going to Riverside. The staff will be joining the group too. Plus you can ask those who were banded before you!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
