[MommaCEO 45]

Anyone interested in meeting in person in South oc. I live in rsm, near mission viejo. I have 2 friends who have also had a VSG who would like to do a support group.

I was also thinking of using "the beck diet solution" by Judith Beck as a study.

Hi MommaCEO,

I finally found this chapter. I private mailed you, but I wanted to post here as well.

I live in Oceanside and am interested in attending the June 18 meeting in Irvine.

Will you be posting details? It's only 2 days away.

Thanks. Nancy

Tonight is not possible, I'm sorry. Please post if we are buying the book to use as a study guide. Thanks a bunch!

[MommaCEO 45]

Book is not necessary, lets just get the group off the ground first, but I do highly recommend it as does my surgeons office and the support group associated.. Unfortunately tonight did not go off. Let's try again Jul 2nd. I will find a location.

[MommaCEO 45]

Meeting Wednesday July 2 at 6:30

Looking for a place near freeway in lake forest or irvine

I did drive from Oceanside to Irvine last Thursday, I believed, based on the information here. You can imagine my disappointment when you cancelled this meeting at almost 6 p.m., which was 35 minutes before it was supposed to start. I had been on the road since 4:30, and was already there when I got your message on my phone.

There are also no fewer than 6 different seating sections outside Starbucks by the grassy area you mentioned. I hoped someone else also may have made the effort to go, and we could meet, but it was impossible to connect with anyone with the identifiers you provided.

I don't think I will spend the hours in traffic, and spend my time and gas again. I would advise anyone who does consider going on July 2 to get a firm confirmation that the next time it won't also be cancelled 35 minutes before it starts. There really has to be a higher level of responsibility if you really want to start a group.

I didn't cancel. I sat at Starbucks until 7:30 waiting.

I'm not sure where you got a cancellation notice. I apologies for the confusion.
