Lunch Bunch - July 17th

Just to give everyone a heads up that the date for the July Lunch Bunch has changed from our normal 2nd Saturday of the month. We will still meet at 1pm and, as always, I will need a headcount by Friday evening - Saturday morning at the latest.

We will meet at Chili's at Rivergate unless I receive requests for another area of town. We are willing to move to the location that is going to be most convenient for everyone.

Remember, this group is open to everyone -
   any stage of the journey - pre-op, post-op, just researching, etc
   any hospital
   any doctor
   any surgery

We are all have the same destination in mind, a healthier us. We just take varied paths depending on our surgery choice. This is a good way to learn how to eat at a restaurant and enjoy the company as well as the food. We are always willing to help newbies find good options for their food stage and tolerances on any menu. Heck, we've even been known to share entrees rather than take home leftovers. LOL

We welcome support people too. They are an important part of the journey and they need to be able to talk to other support people.

Yeah!!!  Count me in!  Love Chili's!

I am going to try to come (for the first time). I had RNY on 6/14- and would love to meet others who are also on this journey.

Linda

We all hope to see you there.

It is always fun to visit swap stories, clothing, recipes, etc.

There are a few "colorfull" people that are great that attend.

I plan to be there!

As of now I plan to come say hello with my mom but if my scedule changes I will let you know! Will be good to see everyone again.

I will be there Saturday.  May be running late as I have an event around the fairgrounds before that.  Look forward to seeing everyone.  It's been waaaaaaaaaaaay too long.

 I just now found this post.  I usually lurk on the VSG board but I would love to come to the next lunch meeting.  I am still preop but waiting now for a call to get my surgery date.   I have attended a couple of meetings at Hendersonville Hospital but my surgery will be at Vanderbilt.  I would really love to connect with some folks on this side of the river where I live.

Thanks

I always enjoy lunch bunch! We share experiences and products and have a good time getting to know one another. It is the 2nd Saturday of each month at 1pm at a different location each time somewhere in or around Nashville and is attended by patients of all surgeries, all hospitals, all Drs - no discrimination here! :-) The usual organizer has stepped down and asked for someone else to step up and take over organizing it, but I haven't seen any volunteers yet... However, the location is usually announced here on the TN board a week in advance. So stay tuned!
