I can do any day. I'm fine with Saturday morning also. Lana

I typically have Mon/Tues/Wed off, and could do anytime during the day or evening those days. If hubby wants to come with me, it would have to be any time on Monday, since he works until 8p Tues-Sat. I always work on the weekends, so Saturday is out for us. At least until I find a better job with weekends off. :biggrin1:

Hi Mommy2Brandon,

I'm not sure how this thread thing works, but, be sure Bestyjane get's your answer because I think she is the one rounding everyone up for an Humble group. Again, I really can come just about any time. Lana

Woo hoo! I must be a slow learner. I read that fantastic article Woodys had posted about how to know if you need a fill. I realized I never got off soft food after my fill. After reading about how I should be going after difficult foods now, I overcooked a chicken breast for Breakfast yeaterday, and planned to have it and raw veges. chew chew chew Well, I only got through half of the chicken breast and I was actually full. Could feel the restriction. So...I'm going to put off getting that next fill and see how it goes.

Betsyjane,

Just read your post. How do I find that Woodys post. I get my first fill day after tomorrow. It sounds very informative. Lanajane

When getting fills remember not to eat solids that day. Stay on liquids. Every doctor is different, but mine requires 3 days of liquids and 3 days of mushies after a fill. You want to ease back into solids.

For some of us fills don't kick in for 6-10 days. Keep that in mind. You should return to solids when your doc says you can. That's when you will be able to tell if you have restriction. Also, one day you can be wide open, the next tight as a drum. Its very unpredictable.

Why not arrange to meet on Monday in January at 5 at the Humble cafe? That would be a great start to our support group and the new year.

I won't be here on the 8th. How about Monday the 15th of January at 5 at HCC?

to find the Woodys article, go to Search and type in exactly these words:

How to tell when you are perfectly adjusted

My Dr. said do soft foods x1 day after a fill. I just didn't ever get off the soft foods! The article helped alot!
