hey everyone! Sorry I haven't been on here. I'll be there on the 4th, but a reminder would be helpful. I'm going to try to get a fill soon because I've not only been able to eat too much, but I've been on steroids for a few weeks due to an eye issue...both are causing me to gain a few pounds. Nothing drastic, but enough to bum me out. I also have to get my ass to the gym again! I'm a slacker. Looking forward to seeing you all. Theresa -

Hey, I'm going to be out of town next week until the 1st, and I still want to meet up at Red Robin. Can one of you who is a facebook friend of mine remind me about RR on facebook on the 1st? I always check that, but don't always check this site. Thank you! -

Hey guys! May 1 works for me too...even though the time conflicts with The Amazing Race (my favorite show). I'll give it up that night just for you. I missed the last get-together, so I'm really looking forward to this one. I am on a long-term plateau, but still only about 20 pounds from goal. I'll see if my daughter is available to join us that night. She's down about 65 pounds since her surgery in October. -

So, ever since they changed the format of this site, I don't get updates sent to my phone or email, so therefore, I don't think anyone's been writing. I was bored this evening and thought I'd check in. Turns out that people ARE writing. Hey peeps! Count me in for whatever happens on March 23/24. I'll try to check in on this site more often. -

I was wondering why no one was on here, then when I finally checked in, I notice that they've changed this site so much that I had to re-register. I hadn't been getting email notifications that there were new postings. Julie, I hope everything works out for you...and soon. I'm up for Red Robin whenever anyone else is. -

Wow...nobody has posted on here in the past month! Come out of hiding and talk to me. Big news: My 19-year-old daughter was banded this afternoon by Dr. K. I'm jealous that she is getting this early start on the life change. I keep saying that my only regret about getting the band is that I didn't do it sooner. She's in the normal amount of pain, so it's looking good. Maybe she'll join us at our next Red Robin outing. -

Hey ladies! I am experiencing a serious craving for Red Robin. Tuesdays work best for me, but I'm pretty flexible. Anyone want to get together sometime soon? -

Marie, if you can't vent here, you can't vent anywhere. Sorry about the job situation. I hope things change for the better for both you and the hubby. If you come into town for a fill, let us know so maybe we can get together. I go back to work on Aug. 2, but I work school hours, so I have a lot of time on my hands. -

Hey everyone! Hope you're having a wonderful summer. Mine ends in about two weeks when school starts. -

It's looking like I'll be out of town too. If that changes, I'll let you know.
