Anyone up for a potluck supper club?

I am in the 3 year club as well....good to see you posting Jon.  I would be interested in a get together----would love to meet you all. Tracey

Hi Jon, I am over 3 yrs myself and I definitely know that it is now work. Did you jus****ch your carb intake - anything else? Up the exercise a lot? With my back, I'm so scared to do anything. I don't want to aggrevate it. I would love to drop 20 lbs. I think it is a great idea to have a get together. Hopefully it could be on a Sunday???? I always have to work on Saturday. I wonder if our new friend Ahmed would join us? I very much so would like to meet him. Take care, Carey

Does a bag of Baked Cheetos count as a dish to pass?  Sounds like a great idea, set a date and how you want to handle the assignments.  I'd like to meet the older-timers as well, how do we get word to them? Westsiders, shall we carpool?

Great idea Jon. How about finding a park. Every one can bring a dish to pass and their own drinks and table service. The restrooms will already be there, and there won't be a big mess to clean up at your house.  Some of us out this way can carpool. I would really like to go. Can you make it a Saturday?  God bless, Annette

Hi Jon,  I would love to participate in a get together.  I haven't met to many people out here and I think it's time I do.  Thanks........

Hey Jon, I'm in just let me know the date and I will surely bring something too.  I'm two years out does that count???/

You can count me in too Jon just let me know where and when. If you need help I am there just let me know.. Paul

We're still out here, just not as vocal as we used to be. Congratulation, on the weightloss. It sounds likes like you found what works for you. I am weaning off the med that was contributing to my weight gain. Hopefully I will be completely off it in a week or 2. It scares the crap out of me though. I recently found a wonderful site(Sparkpeople.com) that really helps me to keep a very close eye on my food intake and my calories burned as well as many other things. I also bought a new talking pedometer, it tells me my progress thru out the day, steps, calories burned, time, distance. I wear it all day everyday, because it talks, it constantly reminds me to keep moving. I usually hit between 10-12,000 steps everyday. I have lost about 4.5 lbs and 4+ inches so far.   Yes, it is much more difficult to lose now. One thing I have learned is, because of the starvation mode we where in for such an extended period of time, it really messes with your metabolism, and if you don't get regular exercise, you won't lose or you may even gain. I hope the newbies will learn from the issues that we have had to pioneer thur. It may save them a lot of heartache. Just eating right just doesn't cut it. Even though my med added to my weight gain I am sure the lack of regular exercise didn't help. I do my best to keep moving as much as I can. My goal every day is to get at least 10,000 steps. I just bought a glider over the weekend, so I will be hitting that every day to.   I would love to come to the get together, but the gas prices today just won't permit it. I drive an SUV and being 2hrs away, I would have to take out a loan to buy gas....LOL. Well I hope you all have a great time.   

I would be interested.  I haven't seen a you in quite a while.  I have some new dessert recipes. 

I would love to come I miss our monthly supper dinner.
