Southern California HCG Meetup in formation.....need ideas please!

[Stevie Renee]

Lovely California ladies!

I ended up having to hang with the in-laws as they had a lot going on with various stuff & needed us to help.

A perfect day yesterday to visit!

[verbqueen]

Here we all are, having a great time!

[marion93]

Thank you for posting the pics, Zbunny and Verbqueen! I haven't figured out how to load pics on this forum yet, but when I do, I have a couple to load too.

I finally have a bit of time to do a proper post, so let me say that, I had a blast meeting all of you ladies this Saturday! It is so refreshing to hang out with other people who really know, and can relate, to the hcg journey....the ups and the downs of it. Also, the four of you are such beautiful and supportive ladies (inside and out!). It was evident to me that I was hanging out with a unique group of amazing women!

Stevie; we missed you, but there was talk about maybe doing another SoCal hcg meetup, so maybe you can come to that when it gets put together? It would be awesome to meet you!

[Zbunny]

Stevie, you were definitely there with us in person, as several of us noted our love of Stevie Ray Vaughan AND (kismet!) a Stevie Ray song came on the speaker right then!

I love it!!

Hope to make the next one.

Okay, I am clueless as to putting up pictures here , but I finally got my pictures onto facebook . If you all want to facebook friend me let me know. I am hidden on there, so I will probably have to add you first.

[Zbunny]

Here are a few of Marion's pics for us to enjoy

...and some of the fishies:

Where are you, Halebop? We had so much fun, we definitely want to do it again. Maybe a whale watching voyage?

[halebop]

I live in LA / San Fernando valley but will happily drive!

[shelbyla]

Halebop! You're back! I think you were around when I was doing my rounds... Didn't realize you were in SoCal. I'm thinking mini golf might be fun too!

[halebop]

I'm back...and up 14 pounds

Not sure if I do another round to lose it (I'd like to lose 25-30). I do better when I'm in the gym (lifting weights is my favorite) and I haven't been doing that. I want to get back to it but can't if I start a new O2 (until after). I really really want this weight off and off for good. I remember how great the losing was in round 1. Maybe I hold off on starting back at lifting...can't decide.

BUT I do know I'd love to meet up with everyone. shelbyla helped me a ton my first round so that's why I dumped all my indecisiveness into this thread

[shelbyla]

Well, hale, I'll probably being doing another round at the beginning of the year. I talked to a gf today who is interested in joining me. (She's done 2 slightly more rogue rounds.) I've got at least 10 that I'd like to take off and I am praying right now that it's ONLY ten as the holidays do tend to get to me! If you start your exercise now, get yourself into it, you'll be ok to continue it in January--if you'd care to join us! Just sayin'... We SoCal girls need to stick together!

[marion93]

Thank you Zbunny, for putting up my pics! I haven't had time to figure out the pics thing on this forum.

Yes! Love to meet you, and there will be another meetup, just don't know when.

Mini golf sounds great, as well as the whale watching idea!

[halebop]

Yeah! I'm excited to meet everyone. Maybe that will be my plan...get back to the gym now, eat beeter (and less), don't make things worse with holiday eating and then do a round in jan and stick with the gym when I do since it won't be starting a new program.

[Zbunny]

Hale, I am thinking I'll be joining Michelle to do a round in January as well, and I'll bet a bunch of others around these parts will want to do one, so let's just do it, girls! And let's definitely get together again -- for mini golf, whale watching, go-cart racing, heck, we could go to the symphony! This is a fun group, and I'm sure there are more So-Cal people around here -- we just need to entice them to join us!

[verbqueen]

I'd love to get together again! It was really fun! (And I started another round last week...)

[halebop]

May I ask the local ladies posting here (who I hope to meet soon!) Have you alk used hhcg or some rx too?

[verbqueen]

For me, just homeopathic.

[Zbunny]

I used homeopathic too.

[shelbyla]

Homeopathic for me as well. I used various types of drops and pellets, including Intermountain.

[marion93]

I used rx injections. I think I am the only one.

[Twirl]

I use homeopathic.

I'm up for another round in Jan!

[.barbara.]

Hi, I would like to come to the next meetup. I live in San Juan Capistrano. I'm just finishing up my first round phase 2 and moving on to stabilization. I want to start up again January 1st Cheesecake Factory...Oh yeah!

I'm doing the injections but subcutaneously not intramuscularly....is that a word?

I have been checking out some other HCG boards, it would be wonderful to have friends to talk to in person about all the stuff we are doing.

Anyway count me in ....

Welcome to LCF! You will love this board
I have been here for years - lol

[shelbyla]

Welcome barbara! You'll love it here! Come join us on the P3/4 thread and jump right in!

[shelbyla]

It looks like we may be starting a little "local" thread here. I may start a West Coast Girls thread or something like that so we can all stay in touch. What say you all?

Yes! Come join us! We have tossed around a couple of ideas for the next one, but haven't committed to one idea yet. I think it probably will happen after the holidays since most people are busy during this time. Although, feel free to correct me if you all would like another meetup earlier. I am certainly game!

Shelby, that is a fabulous idea! (btw, I have to call you Shelby and not Michelle for the same reason as your other friend needs to call you Michelle....My fiance's ex is named Michelle, so I like to think of you as Shelby!
