Topic: RE: One week! Come on!
I'm shy too... but I have a ....  oh wait... wrong venue...  I mean

Don't be shy! Please :)  Here's my schpeel...

ok here's the deal people.  We're all either fat, or used to be fat, or recovering fatties.. whatever...  the second you walk in that hotel you need to leave all your inhibitions behind.  You are with family now.  There is no one in that place who is going to judge you (unless of course you're that girl who's had way too much to drink and is puking her guts out in the potted plants wondering where her clothes are... we won't judge... we'll just point and laugh and talk **** about you behind your back.... but we'll be there to hold your hair back in the morning when you're praying to the porcelain goddess k?)
This is my first convention and my first time meeting most of you... and I see so many people say that they are shy.  We've all been there.  We've all been kicked for our looks.  But guess what!  We're all putting on our pants one leg at a time and getting on the same boat.  Stand Tall and Proud knowing that we're all in this together.  Let that inner socialite free... you know you want to

hrm... maybe those new meds really are working...

Make sure you say hi to me... you can't miss me... I'll be the 6'9" behemoth with sunglasses standing in front of MM protecting her from stalkers ;-)

Topic: RE: Our cycling club made the newspaper
You live in an area with great trails. I have family in Utica. The Kokosing Gap Trail in Mt. Vernon is just amazing and easy to ride. Heart of Ohio is not paved and harder to ride. Also, just a few miles north in Butler/Bellville is the Richland B&O Trail. I love it too. It's a super easy to ride. Join our club. We do sometimes come your way for a ride on Saturdays or Sundays. Happy cycling!

Hello,

I know that we are getting down to crunch time, but I just wanted to put it out there that my room still has room for one more.  If you need a room and was hoping to to try and get one once you got there, look no further.

Contact me through this site asap, if you need a spot to  lay your head.  lol 

The price split four ways is 69.62.  Let me know.

The beauty of a woman is not seen through what she wears. It is seen through how she carries herself and the way she doesn’t allow herself to settle. Don’t ever let anyone take for granted the beauty that is within you. Stand firm and know that you’re a wonderful person. Always remember your value and respect yourself. I’m so blessed to have you in my life.  Sometimes we all need to be reminded how special we really are!

I was hoping to be able to go but after looking over the money for this month I can't afford the hotel stay.

Info about Mr. Sushi's: http://mrsushicincinnati.com/

Please PM me if you WILL USE this.

Topic: Revision/Medicare/Dr. Maguire?
Hey peeps,

I am just wondering if any one who has Medicare had a Revision with Dr. Maguire.  I had a VBG in 1986 & then had a VBG reversal in 1996 now I am seeking a revision to the DS.  I would really appreciate it if you or someone you know of was in my situation - that you leave me a message or pm me.  I really need some help.  Thank you a million times over!

GIA!

Topic: Fun on Friday night after the meet 'n greet in Cincy!
  Hey everyone!

During the summer at Fountain Square (where the event hotel is), there is live music and other entertainment until 1 am!  Maybe some of us can go there after the meet and greet (if I'm organized enough, tee hee) and have some fun!

Let's talk near the end of the meet and greet...maybe we'll just have Bo announce it.....
