New member interested in coffee group

I went to one coffee and long to go to another.  Living in Hugo and driving that far is hard, but really really worth it.

I will put I am 80% in for coffee.  

Is there another coffee date in Maple Grove this Saturday 2/27?  After asking about this, I had a cold (think one year old twins)...we come down with a lot more colds this year.  Would love to meet some of you and although I am close to my surgery date, I am having some last minute thoughts about lap band instead of gastric bypass; I like the idea of less invasive, less risk but do not like what I am hearing about feeling starved, etc.   Is this hunger feeling a common effect after having the lap band?  THanks so much.
