Is there anyone that lives near or on Cape Cod MA that is being or has been banded?

I am having my surgery on July 15th and would love to have someone close by to walk with and do other fun exercise with....just a thought!

Have my fingers crossed .... would love to have a buddy that is going through the same thing near to me!

Hi Lisa,

I'm in Norton, MA. Not on the Cape but a half hour to the Canal. Where do you live? Maybe we can meet and have a cup of coffee or Iced Tea?

Toooo funny!! I'm having my surgery at Brigham & Women's but going to Faulkner for my Support Group.

Wow we could go together to the support group....see this makes it so much more interesting and enjoyable to share this with you rather then do it alone!

You made my day!

They hadn't gotten my approval letter and I just called Megan and mentioned I had and was very anxious to see if I could get in any earlier. She said they could do it!!!:smile2:. I just gave it a shot:thumbup:. Sometimes my big mouth helps. I can't find your

cell # mine is 508-243-8027. I'm in Middleboro alot. Are you any where near the rotary? Rt 18,28

I am so close to the Rotary in Middleboro...there is a Dunkin Donuts right there if you want to meet!

I couldn't do end of month for my surgery...they wanted to give me July 1st but I work in Finance so I told them it had to be mid month. YOU are so lucky! Getting it done sooner is better!

Can't wait to meet you!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
