Hey y'all. I hope everyone is doing well. I started a chart with the info I knew about everyone but have fallen a bit behind due to starting back to work and some issues with increased pain. I'm gonna try to get it caught up ASAP though. If you haven't alrwady included your e-mail in this post or sent me a I'm with it, please do. We will post details here but will also email stuff. Also, if you'd give me your real name and any other info about you that you'd like the group to know about you, I'll include that in our member chart.

As Toni said, anyone in the DFW area is welcome to join regardless of when you had surgery. And, yes DadTo2 that includes guys.

Okay, so I got on this chart and have updated it to here. Here are a list of members I have so far:

Back~To~Me (Amy)

Tonibugg (Toni)

Lovemeifyoucan (Stacey)

Butterflylegacy (Cindy)

Amanda3.0 (Amanda)

kk23 (Katie)

Jana-in-Texas (Jana)

DadTo2 (Eric)

wannabeeskinny (Jacqi)

lessofmeismore

WoWGurl78

carbgrl

SLIM12

Zamion19

Soggycereal

For the majority of you I am missing information: If your name isn't in parentheses after your screen name, I need your first name. Also, I need an e-mail address for all of you but Toni if you want to get e-mail updates and a copy of our member list. Finally, I need a location for SLIM12 and kk23. Feel free to post the needed information here or send me a PM.

As y'all know, Toni is very recently postop so we haven't had a chance to talk about this yet. My thoughts are we need to set up some sort of schedule, like meeting the 3rd Saturday of every month at a specified time. I definitely think we need to do it on a Saturday. I think it is just more workable for the majority of people. Also, we have people in the Mesquite area side of the metroplex to people out in Ft. Worth. We may need to come up with a central location or we may need to schedule a meet and greet on the Dallas side of the metroplex one month then the Ft. Worth side the next month. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Oh, if I missed anyone or anyone else wants to join, please let me know. The more the merrier!!

I look forward to meeting everyone.

~Amy

      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.
