If I remember correctly the meeting is the 1st Tue. of the month from 5-6.  Am I right?  I'm planning to go.  This will be my first one.

Can you tell me where the meeting is?  Or are there signs?  Should I get there early?  Is the group big?  What can I expect?

This will be my second meeting, so I'm certainly no pro either.  I think that last week it was on the 2nd floor in a small conference room.  There were signs.  I got there just at 5, and I would say there were probably about 15 people there plus two facilitators from the DHMC staff.  The majority of people there were lap banders, with only a few RNY people.  They are really good about starting and ending on time, and will weigh you at the end, if you want.  They start the meeting by going around the table, and each person tells what type of surgery they had and when they had it. 
Don't be nervous, it's a very relaxed atmosphere.  If you want, you can look for me.  I'm wearing a light blue blazer, glasses, and my hair (brown-from-a-bottle) is up in a clip.  :)  By the way, are you the person who knows Celeste here at the court?

Ok.  That's good info.  I believe Linda Tate attends the meetings.  She is the nutrionist.  I'll look for you.  I'll probably be wearing a denim jacket and brown pants.  I am not the person who knows Celeste.  Sorry.

Oh don't be sorry.  I just can't remember who it was.  I've never met her in person either, just on this board, so I was trying to make a connection.  See you at 5.
