Harris/Galveston County people looking for Support

A couple of us from Friendswood and Texas City Area have meet once for coffee or a bottle of water at Starbucks so we could talk about our experiece and would like others to join us. Men or Women are welcome. It doesn't matter what Dr you used we have different Drs. Also you could bring your spouse or a friend whatever makes you comfortable

We are open to meeting anywhere that is public so people will feel safe. If you are interested just reply to this thread. It was really fun meeting others that are going through the same thing. We said an hour but we talked 2 hours. But people could and go as they want

We thought we could meet once a month or more if some want to. Thanks!!:)

This time it was Starbucks at Baybrook Mall. Next time it will be at a different Starbuck the mall was so busy and too much noise. You are welcome to come. You would be an inspiratation for us. One of the girls there today had lost over 100 lbs too. If you want you can bring your wife or girlfriend whatever make you comfortable. I will let you know when we will meet again. Maybe you could come. The very first time my husband went with me since it was the first time I ever met someone on the internet

I'm easy like Sunday mornings. wherever is fine with me. My wife is a starbucks addict. We went to Seattle last week and her main focus while there was to go to the first starbucks.
