Topic: RE: Group in Hemet Area
I'm in Temecula. Not a support group per say but we usually do a SoCal Meet & Greet and a few get togethers (Tom's Farms Corona, Old Town Temecula) a few times a year.

This was the pics from last years event: http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2011/08/5037-pounds-lost-with-weight-loss.html

If you are on facebook or twitter friend me @eggface cause I'll be sure to post the 411 on those.

Welcome to the neighborhood ;)

Topic: So Cal - Long Beach Coffee THIS Saturday!! 2/25
Long Beach Coffee an oldie but goodie on the California forum.  It stared over 6 years ago.  Different people have picked up the gauntlet and attempted to keep this tradition going...and now it's my turn.

I invite ALL ops to join us, that's preops, postops, waitingops, frustratedops etc etc for fellowship with those that either know where you've been or know where your going!!

12:00pm until whenever we tire out (usually we're there 1-2 hours)

In the Kmart/Lowes Center at Bellflower Blvd and Spring St

Topic: Heads up: Free Webinar Series
The Obesity Action Coalition (OAC) & Obesity Prevention, Policy & Management are hosting a FREE webinar series. The Complexity of Obesity. Awesome title IMHO because anyone who is fighting this war on a personal level knows obesity is more than the simple math of calories in, calories out.

These online events will occur approximately every six weeks throughout 2012 & 2013 with a variety of topics, speakers, and panels discussing obesity related topics, the first of which (intro to all the topics that will be covered) took place on Feb 7th but you can download the full presentation with audio from the OAC's web site:

The next webinar is set for Thursday, March 29, 2012 and will focus on the topic of "Addiction." You have to register for the webinars but they are FREE. When you register you get a log in code.
