I’m a plus-sized NoVa resident, and I’d like to get a group started in the Northern Virginia area for fellow plus-sized people who are interested in participating in a variety sports or physical activities, ideally meeting once or twice a month on the weekends. The purpose of this group would be all about playing and having fun in a casual, supportive, non-competitive environment. Just as an example, one weekend we could play soccer, another weekend maybe softball or roll-the-bat, another time w …

This group is also not meant to be a book club, but participants may at some point want to read size acceptance fictio …
I've been looking and hoping for a group that would meet some where between Springfield and Spotsylvania... but over the years, nothing developed. I know I'm not the only heavy set person in the area, and I know there are lots of people out there that would like to get together and meet other people with similar interests, go out and do things. So, here I am... I've created the group to find other people out there that would like to meet, chat, exchange information, eat, play games, go out to ev …
Thycksistahs is a group designed to bring together Plus Sized women to make new friend and network. There will be events designed just for THYCKSISTAHS. Caberets, auctions & more. We all have heard that " Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." Let's stop just saying it and LIVE IT. Society sometimes does not see it that way. They are always putting labels on groups of people. "NO ONE IS BETTER THAN ANOTHER." THYCKSISTAHS is about promoting the fact of Plus-Sized women being socially accep …
Due to work and family circumstances I need to close the group. Best wishes. robin
This group is intended for beginner/intermediate adult cyclists in western Prince William County. Are you new to cycling? Returning to cycling? or Just curious? Then come join us for an evening or weekend ride. We especially want to encourage "plus sized" cyclists who may be intimidated by peletons of spandex and are looking for a group that is comfortable and yet encouraging. "If you only worry about falling off, you'll never get on the bike" ~ Lance Armstrong
