I am so excited...Tuesday night was our second weight loss support group meeting held in Greenville, Ohio...My two friends Carmen, Mo, and myself started this new group...We call ourselves * Little By Little*  Weight Loss Support Group...We had 3 visitors to show up at the first meeting...This month we had 8 visitors to show up...We were so thrilled to have everyone there...We all seemed to have a wonderful time...We opened with a friendly welcome, and then everyone was asked to tell their name, what kind of surgery they had and when, and then answered a question which was * what is your favorite and least favorite food?*...This seemed to give everyone a chance to warm up to everyone, getting to know each other a little better...The topic for the evening was * Beverages*...Mo mixed up a few different flavored beverages, all sugar free, for everyone to sample...Open discussion was then held about different types, sugar content, carbonation, caffeine, whether or not they drank during a meal, and etc...Information was then given about a local consignment shop in Greenville, that sells clothes starting at size 16 and goes up...The name of the shop is called * CHRISTINA'S CONSIGNMENT BOUTIQUE*...Its a really nice shop, has tons of clothes to chose from...She even carries purses, shoes, jewelry, scrubs, make-up, and more...If anyone would like more information about her shop, please message me and I can give you more details...Everyone then enjoyed having a small sample of a * Chicken, Spinach & Cheese* pizza that Mo made...She provided the recipe and information about this healthy pizza...We even gave a door prize away, which is always cool, especially if you are the one to win it...HAHA...I made a list of everyones name, address, phone numbers, and email addresses so we can copy them off to hand out to everyone at our next meeting, so this way we can help to support each other during the rest of the month by phone calls and email letters/ cards...We handed out a short questionnaire for everyone to fill out...Part of the questionnare involved them telling us if they have any ideas, suggestions for upcoming meetings, programs...Hopefully some will even volunteer to be a part of the program so we can learn things that they have to teach us...In time we plan to get together for outside activities beyond the meeting to do things such as going bowling, walking local trails, shopping for clothes and having a fashion show, and much more...Its always great to make new friends and to know that theres someone out there that actually cares and is there to support you...Our next meeting will be held July the 1st ( Tuesday)...If anyone is interested in coming, and joining a great group of ladies, and ONE GENTLEMAN, please feel free to message me for further information...Our only gentleman Jeremy is hoping that more men come soon before all of us women drive him nuts...HAHA...Hes a super cool guy and is such a great pleasure to have in our group...Guaranteed to make you laugh and forget all your problems...I am so thrilled to be a part of this new group...Hope to see you there !!!

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only TRUE FRIENDS will leave footprints in your heart...And may that friendship have such a ONENESS that when one weeps the other will taste salt...Friends are like balloons ; once you let them go you can't get them back....So I'm going to tie you to my heart so I never lose you.

I hope to be at your next meeting. Tell Carmen too. We had lunch together 1 time before she had her surgery. Give me the dates and I'll be there. I have a friend in Covington who is waiting for approval and I may bring her if that's ok.
