Hi my Denver friends!

Sometimes I wonder if its worth taking vacation - I have up to my ears in alligators since my return. I'd love to join you all on the "gambling junket" in November, if there's room in the car.

I'm going to try and attached two photos. One is from July of 2008 and the other is from July 2009. Hopefully, you all can see a difference...I'm down 50 pounds between the two.

Mary

Oops! I am working extra that night and won't be able to join! We are crazy busy and I need the money, so I volunteered without checking my scheduler! I'm sorry!!

I think Snowgator, Laptastic and Kayleighsmommy are going to be there. Anyone else?

I'm a "for sure" for Red Robin on Sunday. 7pm, right? I'm also up for the gambling trip. I can drive and fit three people besides myself very comfortably or four if we all lose ten pounds by then.

You're hilarious!!! I'll try to lose 10 lbs by then! BUT I can take 7 including myself in my Highlander. I've never used the 3rd seat, but I'm willing to give it a go!

I'm a for sure too :confused:

Lucky girl! I wish I was going to Red Robin! I am so hungry for a good salad! Yum!

I'm at work tonight! The 2nd of 4 and I am so ready to go home! It is 0149am and I am done! Spent! Exhausted!

Hi Ladies,

I am jumping on your bandwagon, if there is room (?)....My surgery with Dr. Brown in Denver is set for Sept 1st., and so I am a total newbie hoping to learn from you all.

New as I am, I got to have lunch with KayleighsMommy yesterday after my first meeting with Dr. B! I am so grateful for her efforts to reach out and help me! Thank you KayleighsMommy! How cool to meet IRL. She told me a little bit about you all and the Red Robin meetings - I look forward to meeting you some day when I return to Denver for one of my fills.

Counting down the days until this surgery!!!!

Have a great weekend!

Welcome Colorado! I just met with KayleighsMommy at Red Robin tonight. She mentioned you. Let us know when you're back in town and we can do an impromptu Red Robin get together.

Hi friends.

I have some late night work I'm doing. Funny thing, since I got out of the hospital hubby NEVER complains anymore about my nocturnal habits, lights on..tv on..he can't sleep..., he seems grateful just to have me here. Nice feeling.

I am so game for RR but I'll have to hold you all in my heart as school starts on Thursday for me. I miss you all so much my banditos.

Theresa you are funny..getting us to all lose ten lbs for the gambling trip..ha. Now there's a girl who is dedicated to gambling.

I was thinking how nice it would be to invite Dr. K to one of our gatherings waaaaaaaaay in advance of the actual gathering so we could plan a time that is good for him. I owe so much to that man I can't begin to describe it.

We also should do a cruise together. There has to be more of us out there that can piggy back together and do some lovely cruise someplace.

Greetings to the newbie. Welcome to our Dr. K banditos. Colorado is an awesome state and I am envious that you live there.

Mem620 your hooters are going down and your face is getting some structure to it. You do look different. I love your top, I have one just like it...smiles.

I'm making my school shopping list now. My pens that I can't do without, notebooks, binders, and all that stuff.

Everyone have a great week.

Love to all.

Patty

Patty, besides gambling, I also love cruises. Especially cruises with casinos on board.

I started back to school last week! The summers keep getting shorter. Don't you hate the first few days of school? Teachers talk the entire time and my shoulder kills me until about week three.

      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.
