I am scheduled to attend the training sessions for OH meeting leaders this Saturday.  It consists of several courses and I'm lucky enough to be able to attend them all on the same day.  It's going to make for a pretty long day but... I am up for it!  This will allow me to help my friend Lauren facilitate her group: Lawrenceville WINGS and it'll also prepare me for leading my own group.

Once I take this class, my next task is scouting out a facility.  I am not a fan of meeting at restaurants.  It's distracting and can put people in the awkward situation of smelling foods they might really want to eat but wouldn't help them reach their goals.

So I have some searching to do in the Tucker / Northlake area.  If anyone has ideas, please send me a message!

Looks like the group is growing.  Maybe a little slowly but we are working to make it's content relevant to the Atlanta Metro Area.  Check out the Message Board for some new titles including: Recipes and Around Atlanta.  We'll try to add some healthy recipes that are band & gastric bypass friendly.  

Feel free to post your favorite receipes and/or restaurants for others to enjoy!

I have journaled almost everyday on OH for quite a while but this group blogging will be different.  I have to think about the kinds of things I want to journal/blog about instead of on my personal journal.

I welcome everyone to the group and encourage you to submit suggestions to me on ways to make this group even better! 

I am hoping we can schedule "chats" where we can all interact online and maybe even schedule events where we meet somewhere to discuss WLS related topics.

Welcome again.
