Is anyone in the West Palm Beach or S. Florida area?
I'm considering starting a WLS MeetUp but trying to guage interest first. I've kept the surgery a secret from the majority of everyone I know, so it'd be nice to become friends with other who can relate to the odd eating and crazy stomach noises. =)

Exercise in increments vs all at once?
