If I lived in Winnipeg I would love to come for coffee! Maybe once the weather is better, if you plan one on a weekend I can come in for a visit.

I'd like to have it centrally located within easy bus and car routes. Right now I'm thinking either something in a coffee shop that's not too busy and offers some privacy. A place that comes tomind is the coffee shop on Albert and Bannatyne which is not busy and has a large table in the back. Even something in the suburbs as long as its not far (like Fort Richmond) and on frequent main bus routes. I don't know of others off hand but if everyone offers suggestions maybe we can put something together.
Right now I can make days and evenings (and weekends) but I'm thinking evenings or weekend afternoons in the long run.
I sometimes go to OA in Elmwood on Saturday mornings and it works because the people involved make the meetings work by showing up. If we make it difficult to get together because of time and distance then I think we end up back to where we are. (limited get togethers and not always easy to get to)
I'm totally interested... Count me in when you narrow anything down or hear from others ;)
Hi to all...I received my acceptance letter on March 3,2013...am very anxious about the surgery. I keep phoning the Center but my calls are not returned. I am hoping for surgery before a 5 year wait time as I am going to be 55 in December. Any words of wisdom/advice... Could really use some right now...I am very anxious.
Thank You,
Cara

Hello! I'm not a regular poster over here but I happened to catch your post and I'm so happy for you and wanted to say congratulations! Stay in the good fight and keep on keepin' on.
I've tried this before without much success but...
I know there's a coffee get together planned for tonight, but does anyone else want to meet for coffee somewhere more central than out in Fort Richmond; on a more frequent basis; which are not tied to when there are workshops at Victoria Hospital? (which are only open to those who had surgery through the Manitoba Bariatric Program)
If so please PM me. I'd like to meet fellow pre and post bariatric surgery patients in person and exchange information and support instead of just online.
