I'm going to attend 1st support group since surgery. Decided on the Plano Baylor location, tomorrow night at 630pm. I hope my info hasn't changed. Anyone else? Do you need reservations?

There are a lot of people here who go to that support group. I have heard that it is fantastic, but it is a little too far for me to drive from Fort Worth. I do think they want you to register online before you go, but I don't think you will be turned away.

If you haven't seen this thread already - it is for Dallas area sleevers: http://www.verticals...texas-sleevers/

We even have a lunch group that meets the first Saturday of each month.

Thanks for the info - I live in Plano. Where do i find info on that Baylor group? My surgery was at Med Center Plano and they have their own meetings once every two weeks on thursdays. Thinking about that one too.

That's the information I just found. I've been looking for something close by and it looks like they allow patients from other areas to attend. I get sleeved on Friday. :) The meetings are the 2nd Wednesday of every month.

Good luck. ;)

Hope this helps

It does give a number to call or "register here" link. It's far enough after the holiday that I'm sure they are having the meeting.

Hope to see/meet you there next month!

      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?

      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.
