 There are about 12 people from my support group that are going and I am pretty sure that most of them are planning on doing the fashion show. I kinda told them they had to! What would be the best way for me to get all their pictures to you?

 Hello Everyone

I am sending out this announcement with much regret........White PLains HS has removed our group from their facility, therefore our Support Group will no longer meet. Wednesdays meeting is cancelled. We apologize for the inconvenience.

However, I am currently seeking to find another place and if you have any ideas, PLEASE let me know a.s.a.p

Topic: NY Obesity Help Conference October 2011
Anyone interested in participating in the fashion show for the Long Island, NY OH conference on October 22, 2011 please contact me to provide information and photos.

The OH Fashion Shows are open to anyone who wants to participate. After having surgery and working so hard to stay on track, you deserve to show off a bit! We ask that you send high resolution "before" photos and a brief blurb stating your surgeon's name, surgery type, starting weight and current weight (your choice). OH will put them all together to be shown on a large screen while you strut your stuff on the catwalk to music! This starts at 8pm on Saturday evening and we ask that you provide the outfit that you would like to be photographed in! To keep with our schedule, you may be asked to join the other models by 7:45pm that evening to coordinate the lineup.

Upon submitting your photo, you are giving ObesityHelp your permission to use your likeness on our website or in our magazine.

Any other questions? Just ask!!!

Topic: Need some transitional clothes (Upper W Side, NYC)
Need some transitional clothes? Would rather sell them for $1-2 a piece to a WLS friend than give them to thrift.

Beautiful Eileen Fisher, Flax, Michael Kors, Old Navy, Lands End in sizes 3x.

Just let me know when you want to come see them and I'll be there!
