I just moved to Winnipeg in January from Montreal. I've been making an interesting life for myself and I LOVE it here. I've been thinking about making an informal get together group for ladies with PCOS and I thought I'd start asking around here to see if anyone is interested... so???
Hope to hear from you all!

I'm 2 hrs from Wpg too. Living in Brandon MB. It would be great to meet up with other cysters to learn and share. For me my schedule is pretty full right now. I'm the Director of Operations for a charity here in Brandon in addition to my full and part time job. I will be cutting back on hours soon (2 months), but i'm willing to travel for meetings

Hi Canadian Kokopelli! I work in the town centre and at the hosp as well as the chair-ity wheelchair program.
Would love a Manitoba meet up! October would be ideal for me, but if something comes up earlier i'll see if i can re-arrange my schedule

I might be able to attend, depending on how stressed out I am at the time! lol I'm continuing grad studies in the fall...
I'd like to meet other women with PCOS because I don't know anyone else who has it, although I suspect other family members. Everyone else I know draws a blank when they hear me say 'PCOS.' It's a little bit lonely!

I think an October meetup would be a good idea. I know I have a very busy schedule for the summer and cannot commit to much.
Depending on who 'signs up', we can have the meetup wherever the majority of participants live (like right now, Brandon).
What would you ladies like to do? Dinner? Coffee? Something not related to food?
It'd be great to get to know one another before any meet up happens too! Tell me about yourselves!!
Hope this idea is as exciting to you as it is to me!

Great! Maybe we should start a thread just to post yes to the meet up and our location. Then mid sept we can tally and decide where to hold it.
About me: LOL lets see....I was diagnosed with PCOS last year or was that the prev year? wow time has gone so fast and i cant look at my sig right now to bother hehe. I feel like i work around the clock and most days i do, i'm active in mind but unfortunatly not in body haha. I've lost about 10 lbs in the past month......from working too darned much, was 295 now 285 largest was 301 back in dec. ummm what else.....oh i cant think now, i've got one heck of a headache and too much work in front of me lol, but if you want to know anything about me just fire away :O)
