Me either! It sucks when you are at a table in a restaurant and they fill it w/carb rich foods and you get tempted

But ya know, there are some low carb alcholic options out there
Okay ok, I better stop before you think that's all I do!
Really, I don't drink much Well, at least not before noon

I am up for a meet

I'd love to come, too. Personally, it would be easier for me if it were a family friendly affair, but I'll keep checking back to see what develops!
