Hello and Happy New Year! Welcome to 2009 and a renewed opportunity to do the best you can to reach your goals!

I'd like to get as many people as we can to re-start our meetup group after the holiday slow-down.

WHEN: Saturday, January 24, 2009 at 1:00pm

WHERE: PF Chang's in Summerlin, on the corner of Charleston and Rampart

Take 215 to Charleston and head East, or take Summerlin Parkway to Rampart and head South; near Whole Foods, Barnes & Noble, and not far from Rampart Casino or the JW Marriot (I am a landmark person).

I chose PF Chang's again as an oldie, but goodie, and to speed the process along. They have lots of options from which to choose healthy meals, and they are not all necessarily one type of food or another.

Hope to see you there!

Felicia

Dear FeliciaLevy75, Howdy & Happy New Year! I just got your P.M. I like the gent handle. Congrats on 110 pound loss! I like all the threads your on. Saturdays @ 1P.M. is the only time I work during the week. Margie has a doctor appt. Tell Judy to keep up the good work. Say Hi to all. Hasta Pronto! George:thumbup::thumbup:

What if we made it Sunday?

Im almost 6 months out... what can u eat there???... im still living on soups.... Im so sad!!!!!!!

Steve and I will come to either a Saturday or a Sunday once it has been decided.

Meshelle, they have Soup, fish, chicken, veggies.... something for everyone! (That said, soup 6 months out? Are you saying you can't eat normal food? Maybe you are too tight?)

I am going to keep it Saturday for now, but like Cassy, I am flexible, so we'll see how it goes.

I met a guy last night who had the surgery a year ago and could use support and a kick in the pants to get motivated again. I told him about our lunch and he and his wife may join us.

My mom and I are recent newcomers to the world of Lap Band. She had her surgery 12/15 and I had mine 12/18. We'd love to come and meet with others who are further down the road.

We both had Dr Atkinson from the SWCC do our surgeries.

Thanx, Felicia. I am really trying to knock off a few more pounds for my 1 year band day. I'm having a blast swimming & hiking. Mostly Death Valley, also Red Rocks, Zion + Valley of Fire. I came into town for the Wed. night meeting. I'll catch up with all in Feb. Hasta Pronto, George:thumbup::laugh::thumbup:

MajorSam, WELCOME!! We are soooo glad you can join us, and hope to see you there on Saturday!

George, you are on the hook for February, my friend!

SO!!

This Saturday we should have...

Felicia

Judy

Cassy + Steve

MajorSam + Mom

Anyone else??

Just a reminder that I will see you all on Saturday! If you need a contact # or directions, etc., just send me a PM and I will send you my number.

Thanks!

Felicia!

Thanks for the welcome. Mom and I will be there with bells on. Did anyone else have their surgery at SWCC? I tried to mention this get together at the last meeting but no one seemed to have heard me. There was probably at least 30 people or more at the support group.

Sam

Yes, quite a few of us had it with SWCC and some that did not have their fills and after care there. We're a mixed bunch, but we're good people!

See you in a few hours!
