POSSIBLE GET TOGETHER??????

Hello Hello... calling all "old timers" and newbies too... was wondering if anyone if interested in a get together... brunch? lunch? coffee chat? life we used to have in the "old days"... i had surgery in 2012 in Hamilton, ON .... and prior to my surgery date would frequent this site every hour of every day.... and the friends i made.... and the chat get togethers i'd attend... then after having surgery... coming onto this site began to be far and few... sad i know... and the people i met along the way have gone their own ways too!! we all got to our goal... and we all went on to live our lives. myself, i moved away from my monthly meetings in Burlington with Linda and a great group of people that attended. Karen in Mississauga would have coffee chats at Tim Horton's... and those we amazing people too!!! Life goes on I guess...SO, if anyone would like to get together... i think it would be awesome... please comment and let's do this!!!!

Thanks

I had surgery (RNY) in 2012 and used to join everyone at the Tim's that Karen usually arranged. I was saddened to see the decline in posts (I've heard many use facebook groups now). I would certainly be interested. I am in west end Toronto and don't mind travelling in the GTA.

Hi Patricia... I too used to travel to Tim's in Mississauga to meet with Karen... hopefully we can arrange something

Hi Patricia... great to know... hoping to get a few more 'Oldies' ... and i now live in Belleville but will travel - no problem with that!!

will be in touch!

thanks

Hi! I remember some of your names. I had VSG in 2009 in Ypsilanti, MI. I've been on a rollercoaster ride with my weight. I've stayed well below what I went into surgery at. I've never been able to maintain a lower weight.
I remember Karen but haven't heard of her in years.

i got in touch with Karen a few years ago.... and there was talk of lunch but then she disappeared... ???? or got busy with life... i know she went thru a rough patch with her health but was on the mend... i don't think many go on obesity help anymore... sadly... haven't had much response... oh well... one can only try

take care of you!!!

Hi I am afraid I do not travel very far anymore. I live in the east end of Toronto if there are any Toronto people. A few people are meeting this Sunday with Dawn Stefani from Windsor. She runs a site on Facebook called

Ontario, Canada Bariatric Surgery Support Group

It would be nice to have meet-ups locally more often. At one time we met in Toronto on the Danforth.

Hi Patm ... great to hear from you and thanks for replying.... my goodness this post of mine is "ancient" ... and sadly a get together never did happen. I remember days prior to surgery there'd be a bunch of us online every single day... made a great bunch of friends... the did the meet n greets.. then i guess life got in the way, covid happened and we all "disappeared" ....
