new to the forum

I am new to the Minnesota Weight Loss forum and would like to get involved with the group.  I am 2 weeks post op Lap Band surgery.  I am starting the Pureed diet and am very happy to be able to eat some meat!. 

Is there a coffee group in the western suburbs?  I's like to connect with folks that truly understand the weight loss journey.  When I looked at the calendar of events the only events that I found were at Fairview (?).  I work full time so evening or weekend date will work best for me. Thanks for being a source of information and support.  Have a peaceful Thanksgiving! Olivia
