Pevette, there is a neat Tea House located between Shepherd & Dunlavy off Westheimer (called Te House of Tea). It is generally a quiet place for lunch and conversation--good for a group. We should put the idea out to the group to find out if there are any takers. What do you think???

Butterfly! When you go to meetup.com, type in WLS in Houston, TX. The group is listed as Houston Area WLS Active Buddies.

I don't think anything is scheduled yet but I'm trying to put information out there to see if there are any joiners. What area are you in?

I can't get together this coming weekend but hoped we could shoot for Saturday, April 21--- at a local Tea House----conducive for conversation.

      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.
