Our first one will be June 5th. They will be the first monday's of each month @ 6:30. I would love to have some if not all of you there with me for the first one well for all of them...but I will take the first one. :) We have some good plans, guest speakers, Dr. V will be there sometimes, Q & A. It will be myself and Bobbie (one of our RN's) there to lead. I have taken some classes and I am learning so much. This will in NO way take away our monthly meeting...I love meeting you guys. I just think it will be helpful...keeping us on track. It's @ the Cornwell Center on Selwyn Ave accross from Queens college.

Hope you can make it, I will of course remind everyone again. I just wanted to put the bug in your ear now.

I'll try is the best I can offer right now. Things are unpredictable at work, and overtime is on the horizon.

      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.
