Can you feel the love

Today at the meetup in Raliegh was wonderful.
We had a large crowd new and old faces.
I am honered to have found OH and the wonderful people I have met.
At our meeting I can walk into the room and feel I am amongst friends.
I feel we can always come to our meetings and speak freely of our WOWS and also our difficultys.
My life would not be complete without these monthly meetings.

Bravo Annie,
How nicely said and how true. It was a wonderful meeting. I met new faces ...which were all lovely... I met some I have met before and was wowed by the changes in all. These photos and avitars just don't do our OH friends justice.
     I encourage ALL the newbys and oldbys alike.... if you have never been to one of these meeting try to go to at least one. They are held all over so there is bound to be one within driving distance to all. If not, have one yourself. (Build it they will come.....) It will be rewarding.
       All these people realy DO want to see you succeed. No one cares..who has lost the most....who is the biggest,....who is the smallest.....or who's dog is better. We are all just happy to have a common goal and to have a common place of origin in wls. I am happy to have the honor to come to know and care for such a lovely group of people.
Thank You
Myrtis

Hi Myrtis,

I just wanted to let you know that I was delighted to finally, actually meet you and your dear husband. Thanks so very much for bring the Nectar Protien to share. I and so many others truly appreciated your generousity. I loved seeing your album. Keep working on it.

Hi Annie,

I must say that I think that the support in our monthly meetings is absolutely palpable. As you say, you can actually 'feel' the support.

Thank you for always extending your hand of friendship and support to all.

Warmly,

Barb

 Maybe all yall need is an excuse to come out west and see the smokeys again. My wife and I get to do the bariatric meet up everyday it would not be so bad to see some new faces out this way one day. Im glad yall had a good turn out and eveyone had a great time. 

Keep us posted about when you have your meetups. You may find a caravan of piedmont and coastal wls people heading west. I am always game to meet new people.
