Glad you liked the Protein powder! I just bought a big canister of Isofruit delight green apple. YUM! 100 calories and 21 g of protein and its just like a morning cup of juice.

Does the oak brook Panera still work or did we want to try somewhere else? noon-ish? earlier or later?

the one thing with the map Quest directions from the panera site is that it told me that going northbound on 83/Kingery to turn right onto 16th and its there. Nopers. If your coming north on 83 from 88 then its a left into the Oaks of oakbrook on 16th. Its in a little store area across from the mall with a Tweeter audio.

Hi all I returned from vacation on Monday night. I would love to join you this Sat. Can we confirm that it will be the Same Panera in Oakbrook.

Medical update, my Brain/neck MRI's came back negative. So I have my follow-up appointment with the neurologist next Friday 4/13. Hopefully he will have some answers.

I also received a sixty day notice at work yesterday my last day will be 6/5. They are outsourcing my job to India.

I have finally been scheduled to have my first fill via flouroscope (they could not find my port when I went in for my first fill 3/16) I can not wait to finally feel some restriction.

Hope you are all doing well. See you SAT...

Thanks Sonia! One more ?: Is this the kind premade in the bottle or is there a powdered kind that you can make yourself? It seems like the stuff you make yourself is much cheaper.

Also, Amelia- when it rains it pours, huh? I'm sure some good news has GOT to come your way soon!!! I'm thinking about ya!

      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.
