Looking for a California buddy!



Recommended Posts

Hey all I know I have not posted much lately. I have been so dang busy. I need a off/on line buddy. someone I can call and talk to. Someone who wants to venture to MX with me and get another fill. Hey I'll even drive. I just don't know the Dr.s there since I went to Monterrey. I have done incredibly well but I have that last bit and I need some help. I don't get it at home because my husband thinks I eat too little, and I look great, so he does not see the need. But I came into this so that I could not just get my life back ...which I did, but also, so that for once in my life I would not be obease. I am still in the 200's and I want to reach my goal... but between my skinny ass friends and chubby chasing husband, I have no one to relate too. So if you need a Phone friend/ in person friend...and I mean friend, I am great at listining and caring and being there. I have a hectic schedule but I keep my phone with me at all times... let me know. Drop me a pm with your number or ask for mine and let's chatt!

Where are you in CA? There's a good active SanDiego Bandster group - I'm sure you could find several banded buddies for on/off line support and MX trips. Look at my post in CA - I post the link to the SanDiego Yahoo! group.

I'm in Gardena, which is near LAX. I've been thinking about getting a tiny fill recently and could probably be conviced to go see Dr. Kuri with you. I've been down there a few times to see him. I was also banded in Monterrey MX :(.

I don't live in California anymore, but would love to have a friend to talk to over the phone. There is no one close to where I live that i have found on this board yet. If you're interested PM me.

      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.
