Is Bent Oak right next to Whispering Winds off Apopka Blvd???? Because that is where I live, it sounded very familar. No... Chilis sounds great to me! I have been isolated in the house, not meeting people and not making new friends for far too long now.This will be good for me. I 'm kind of nervous that I will come across as really boreing since I am disabled and don't work anymore and I have no kids or significant other anymore. No scrapbooking hobbies. Yawn! Geeze I bore me! Ha! But ya know sometimes ya gotta say.....What the Hell...and try anyway and thats what I am going to do! So let's try to get together and see whats up in LapBand Land in our neck of the woods!

I'm going to St. Augustine with my friends from work tmo, but maybe we could get coffee Saturday morning. You gotta think of your band as your own personal power tool to get what you really want. Has it been x rayed for proper placement lately? Deb

Hi! Borders or Chilis or Starbucks are good places for coffee. Is 10:00 too early? Melody, you are welcome to join us! Deb

Deb, I am really sorry but I have had something very unexpected come up and I am going to need a rain check. My sister and brother in law from WPB are coming in to surprise my Dad { we live together} for the day! I was really looking forward to meeting you and possibly Melody. Let's see if we can get our rain check in before Xmas, that way we each get a new friend as a present to ourselves! Ho Ho Ho!

Key West and the lower keys, their are a number of us that have had WLS we get to group up and compare notes sometimes. We will go to Outback Steak House and invite unbanded others to eat the leftovers. We have fun. New people are welcome. I was a leftover eater for several years.

[Debby 0]

Absolutely love Key West. You are so lucky to live there! Would love to meet sometime to compare notes and talk and laugh. Can't eat to much, but could meet at Papas or Margravitaville!!!! My hub will eat our leftovers!When you lose 80lbs. youwill be leaping all over!!!! Deb

I will post the next social when it is set-up. We have a nervious pre-band person in Steve. He and his wife own and run Boston Bricks on Stock Island. He is looking for information and help to calm his nerves.
