Hey everyone! Since we have many of us from outer areas other than Sacramento it was discussed having a meeting in a possible more centralized location. I always say the more the merrier, and would LOVE to meet some of our Bay Area sleevers!!!

Hayward was mentioned and it sounds like a good spot. What say you? Yay or Nay?

Why or why not?

Proposed new date has not been discussed yet but I was thinking Saturday June 25th or Saturday July 9th. Any other suggestions?

I can definitely go there but I prefer July 9th as my birthday is on June 25th and we have plans.

I will also say we have a couple considering our photography services for 7/9 but I doubt if they book us they are major price shoppers.

Perhaps alternate Hayward/ Sacramento every other month? I am unlikely to go to Hayward, although I would love to meet you all in the Bay area! Could we plan a meeting for Sacramento too while we are at it?

July 9th would be my pick and Hayward is 15 min from me(bonus!).

I can't wait to meet other sleevers and get some feedback (I'm pre-op).

Are we on? I have it on my calendar and am planning to hug you guys in person! What time, what place! I know Kelly needs a Mapquest to make sure she finds us so we need to finish planning.

I thought maybe we could all bring Protein powder we don't want or need and exchange it. I also have two pound cans of Chike chocolate and strawberry I could sell for $30 each (huge deal!) as I ended up with a double order. Chike is tasty.

2 or 3 maybe? That way I can get some things done before... let's decide! This would be about an hours drive for me.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?

      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.
