Sunday 16th's fine for me. I'm happy to come over to Willie, its actually easier to stay on the freeway than get into the city anyhow! Believe it or not it only takes about 30 mintues from Berwick to Williamstown on a Sunday.

Anyone heard from Parvathi?

Hi guys, I'm a new lapbander (sounds like a country!) I'd be interested in attending the get-together if that is alright.

I'm still in the liquid stage, and a bit scared to death to going back to solid food, since I've been a compulsive eater all my life. :help: I'd love to hear how others have coped with this.

My details:

Banded 10 days ago, bandages came off today.

Surgeon is Mr Crosthwaite, The Avenue.

Starting weight: 142 kg

Current weight: 137 kg

Goal: 80 kg

Still to go: too many!!!

Regards,

Don

Hi Don, I love your nickname, lol! I was banded by Mr Crosthwaite too back in December. Come along, everyone's in the same boat of not knowing everyone else, I think only a few of us have actually met before, once.

Um, either straight up Springvale Rd and get on at the Ferntree Gully road entry, or you could whizz up that Westall Rd bit (only the vaguest idea of that new way through) and get to the end of Blackburn Rd. You could either get on at the blackburn Rd entry or go up Dandenong road from there, either's probably as quick, but if you're on the freeway its so easy, just go through the Domain tunnel and you come out onto the Westgate freeway.

You'll need an etag or a daypass to use the freeway though.

      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.
