There seems to be a lot of interest in another Calgary get together.

I am going to take the plunge and suggest Sunday, March 23 at 1:30 at Second Cup in Kensington on 10th Street (across from Safeway).

Hi Jan, thanks for the message. I'm going to be in Saskatoon for a wedding that weekend so I can't make it. I hope you all enjoy. Hopefully I can make the next one. Thanks,

I'm looking forward to a chance to meet everyone. So far I haven't met anyone in person who is low-carbing. I haven't gone into a coffee shop in 2 months, are there sweet sugar-free specialty coffees available? I never thought to ask if they made SF versions. Is this ladies only? One of my boyfriends co-workers was low carbing but he fell off the wagon. I know he was doing it alone and I think that if he had low carb companions it would be easier to stick to it. This date is going in the daytimer!

Laura-Lyn,

Other than sugar substitutes, I don't know about other sweetners in coffee. I drink mine with milk only.

I hope we get more interest, otherwise we might have to postpone this. I guess we still have a couple of weeks for the Calgary folks to respond.

Yes, I am sure a male presence would be most welcome.

Sounds really good but Spring Break starts that weekend so I'll be out of town. Have fun.

nice to see so many fellow Calgarians on this site, would love to get together and meet some of you and talk low carb but we are off to Saskatchewan the weekend of March 22-23 so won't be able to make this one.

Hi Jan:

I've just joined this group, and have never posted, but am pleased that there are so many Calgarians doing this LC WOE

I have marked this date in my daytimer, and I am really looking forward to meeting you all; however I sometimes work on Sundays, so I cannot promise too much in advance. If this is, indeed, for both men and women, I will pass on the info to my Bro. and a Friend who are also LCing.

Hope to see you soon,
Light and Laugher,
Donna Kiss

I get the impression I have picked a bad date with spring break, etc. Would someone like to suggest another date? I have been extemely busy this month as well, so maybe sometime in April (not too close to Easter) would be a better choice.

Jan

I stil would like to meet everyone but I will be working on that Sunday. Maybe next time.

Jan

I have just joined the forum this evening and am very excited to see a group that meets for support. I am wondering if you are still meeting on Sunday the 23rd or if the date has changed. My husband & I are both LCing and have some questions and hope that people have some tips for us.

Angela

Angela,

Sorry I haven't checked in to the forum for a few days, so I just read your posting.

I believe, due to lack of interest or availability, the March 23rd get together is cancelled. I don't know when it will be rescheduled. Any suggestions or arrangements by other Calgarians are more than welcome.

As far as questions about low carbing - if you have the time to do a search, there is an abundance of information on this site as well as many others. Have you tried posting your inquiries on some of the appropriate forums here? There are many helpful folks who may be able to answer your questions.

Good luck and maybe we will meet someday.

Jan

I don't know when a good date for a gathering would be, but how about sometime in late april. Maybe Sunday April 27. It would be after easter and it's not a holiday time. Would that date work for many people? Or would a day other than sunday be better?
