Join us at the Texas Bandster Bash and Wellness Conference

So you’ve been wondering about the Texas Bandster Bash…heard some rumors but haven’t seen where to sign up or where to get information?

Here’s what you’ve been waiting for! If you take a look at www.texasbandsterbash.com it will tell you about

· The gorgeous location we’ve chosen, the historic Tremont House on Galveston Island, and the alternative we’ve worked out to stay in the sister hotels nearby.

· The registration cost of only $70 / Bandster, how to register and information on how to make your hotel reservations

· Events and opportunities like one-on-one personal fitness sessions with a certified trainer, a weekend long clothing swap and a hot blues party Friday night.

· Lots of presentations from doctors and other medical professionals

· Makeup and fashion advice

· Plenty of fellow bandsters on all stages of the journey

Please take a look and register today to join us for a great time. We look forward to seeing you there!

Hi, Erika! I've registered. I have not been to any support group meetings lately. Is the bay area group still meeting?

Hi Nancy! Thanks for registering so quickly.

The Baytown group does still meet, but I can't remember the exact date.

There is also now a Clear Lake meeting and one other in Orange, I think. As well as the one at Park Plaza that I go to. I guess a place as big as Houston needs lots of meetings.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions for things you like to see on the website or at the Bash.

That's too bad. But hopefully we have so much fun again that we go for a 3rd annual Bash and you can go to that one!!

      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.
