Message Board for Cobourn-Mumford Patients



Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I just got word that there's now a message board on the 'Surgical Weight Loss Center' website. Go here : http://www.obesitysurgery.ca/forum/profile.php?mode=register and sign up.

If you're already a patient and have had surgery, you can request entrance into a private 'post surgery section', which no office staff have access to. Just send a PM to 'Moderator1' and ask that she add you to the private section. Tell her that Mandi sent you :girl_hug:

P.S. It's something MUCH more like this one, so you guys should like it. It's not a Yahoo group!

BBcode, and HTML... just ignore that. ICQ and AIM are 'instant messengers' like MSN, ignore that too, unless you have them, and want to talk to people from that message group through them.

The VIP secret code they ask for is at the top left of the screen, (when you're typing in that secret code). It's not exactly secret, it's there for anyone to see, but it makes it so jerks can't 'auto-enroll' in the group and post various crap... I think.

Start filling it up, guys! Start asking If Dr. McMumford is married, etc!

Irish Mist, that's likely why it doesn't seem like you can read any posts - there aren't any (well, a few). If you click on something like 'Post Your Questions Here", and then click 'new topic', it's just like making a new thread here.

      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.
