Montana's or Kelsey's suits me fine. Red Robin would be another option if we could be sure of having a booth -- those crowdy seats along the window get soooo noisy! Any of them seem to be pretty good about letting us deconstruct the menu.

Erika, if your BF or a babysitter can't look after her, I have no problem with a well behaved 3 year old. I'm a great-grandma -- I've learned to be reasonably patient with kids - not always with their parents! By the way, I'm the "mother-figure" or "grandmother-figure" for the group.

I know Steph wasn't too happy with RR last time. Montana's or Kelsey's is fine with me.

Erika - no problem with bringing little one if you don't have a sitter. While I'm not a g-ma, I do have a double handful of nieces, nephews, great nieces and great nephews (oh and a DD of my own as well, but she's 21 this month!!!)

Sorry to thread crash ladies, but I was looking for low-carbers here in Victoria and found this forum. Our gym is half way through a 6 week Paleo Diet challenge right now, its good to see others finding success with the low-carb approach.

Wish you all the best!

Welcome!!!

You are most welcome to join in our thread and into our Victoria support group. If you can make this dinner, please come! We usually make a reservation wherever we are going under the name "Elsie" - Glenda thought of it I believe and it just stuck....

BWheels, I'd like to echo Julie's welcome and invitation! We can always find room for another in our little group - we're not a "closed shop" by any stretch of the imagination - the more the merrier!!

I can't take credit for "Elsie" - I think it was either Steph or Jude, and the staff thought she said Elsie when she actually said LC.

glendarc- Thanks! I think its great how this is by far the most consistent group on here, with meetings every month. All of you have made such unbelievable progress!

Off topic, where do you play golf? My dad is the superintendent at Gorge Vale.

I'd rather go to Montana's than Kelsey's because last time I thought Kelsey's smelled like a hospital and I can't get that out of my head...just saying....

Welcome BWheels!

My hubby and I are just hackers -- we play Mount Doug on Blenkinsop - 9 holes this time of year but usually twice around when the weather dries up (and warms up). Sometimes Cedar Hill but I'm not in good enough shape to walk the whole 18 there - we usually rent a cart for the back nine so I can ride!

Just had a look at your profile -- is that you on the rings?

Montana's is fine with me.... I need to be very careful right now with what I am eating (upset GI tract.....) so I will order something naked!

Glenda - I thought Elsie was yours but I guess not.

How many are we up to? Elsie will need to make a reservation.

Wow! As someone who's never been athletic, I'm impressed.
