Lost 25 pounds pre-op
Hope everyone had a WOW moment for Christmas As we all know Christmas is never going to be the same after WLS.
I know we have some members that are looking for approval and I want to apologize to them for not responding.. Dan and I have not been able to connect yet to find out how this can be rectified.
I have general ideas that I would like some in put from member for upcoming events.
Here are some Ideas I have for having and active social WLS Support groups.
With the winter months some of the activities will have to be inside but once the warmer weather comes along we could do some more outside and physical activities
Here are some hopeful events I hope to organize after the New Year.
Game Nite at Home
3D Movie at CT Science Center
Eagle Watch and Seminar with an Eagle Expert
Please give us some ideas you would like to do with fellow WLS members
Hope everyone has a Happy New Year

2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
