I am always interested in meeting up with great people. Even though I don't live in your area, I am willing to travel because there aren't any groups around me. You have my info and here are some answers to your questions...
best time and day of week for you to meet - I prefer anytime between 10a-2pm weekdays
How often you would be willing to attend IE.. 1 x per week, bi-weekly, monthly. - Monthly
What you would like to contribute to the administrative (planning, records, activities topics of discussion, meeting agendas, news letters, presentations) - Activities and Topics
How much time you prefer a general meeting should last. Should we plan special trips and activities. - One hour w/ the opportunity to go longer if the discussion runs over
Would you be willing to contribute to administrative cost such as, printing information, refreshments, ? If so How much do you think would be reasonable/ do-able for you budget? - I can help with costs sometimes, but am on a limited income. I think maybe a sign up sheet for refreshments and maybe a rotation system for the printing of articles, etc. I don't think we will have a need for more than say 15 copies, and most of us can do that on our home printer.

After we see who is interested and here they live and what times are good for everybody. We can zero in on a place and time to hold our first few meeting to organize better.
My hours at my new job very but I will try to make them adjust to my schedule.
Miss you and hope we can get this happening soon!
Like start right after labor day!

Generally Thursday or Friday evenings or Saturday mornings are best for me.

Although I can talk a blue streak. I don't want to be the floor show! Initially I am just trying to get a day and time for a starting point. We are all at different levels in our journey and can be most benificila to each other and know how to best be supportive to each other.
The Questions I have asked will give everyone some ideas on what kind of a supportive meeting we should have.
I kind of hope to have at least one or two meetings each month where we and our family are welcome. also we could as a group plan a special outing or activity for us and our support people to attend. Closed meeting if need be!
But like I said One person cannot do and run it all.

Totally interested Mary!!! I grew up in Westland, but live in Pinckney now (about an hour away). I would be willing to travel though, but probably only bi-weekly. Also willing to help out with stuff, just depending on what you would need me to do.
I really need to surround myself with other Gastric Bypass people and those wanting WLS as well.... I need support and also want to be able to a support to others.
Keep me posted on what happens... Looking forward to something like this....
