Hey Houston Bandsters, let's get together for lunch!

I'm a Houston transplant living in Fort Worth temporarily, but I'll be home for the summer on May 11. Mary and I thought it would be a blast to meet each other and cheer each other on.

Please vote for the date above. We will be meeting at Mary's house in Spring, and it will be a potluck lunch. Here's a list of possible potluck categories. Please let us know which one you'd like to bring:

Meat/seafood entree-type thing

Vegetable

Starch

bread (haha, just kidding!)

fruit

Dessert

and most importantly...BOOZE!

Bandster-friendly dishes would be appreciated, and printing out your recipe to share with the group would be fun, too.

Come on, Houstonians, we know you're out there!

The 13th sounds good to me. I wouldn't mind having a get together at my house if everybody is open to that. I'm going to check with my husband and I'll let ya'll know. Or we can just meet at at one of the area's you have picked.

Come on everybody, this will be fun.

Oh, I love that idea! We could do a potluck! Ask your husband, and we can change the thread to have people sign up for what dish they'll bring.

      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.
