Feb Monthly Lunch



Recommended Posts

I am hosting a bandster lunch next Saturday Feb 24 in Whitby. I do this monthly as part of another group I belong to but I thought I would post this here too.

The lunch moves throughout the city of Toronto once a month and is on a weekend. It is a great chance to meet bandsters in all stages, pre and post op. Everyone is welcome.

The lunch is at Montana's Cookhouse on 75 Consumer Drive, Whitby, www.montanas.ca, basically Thickson Road and the 401 in the AMC entertainment complex. The reservation is under Heather or Canadian Bandsters.

If you are interested let me know so I can change the reservation number

Yasmina,

It is east of the city, about 20 minutes. But if you are out by the airport it is one heck of a drive for you and more than likely you won't have time. But you are more than welcome. The city kinda goes Airport (mississauga), Toronto, Scarborough, Pickering, Ajax, Whitby it is about 30 minutes to the airport with no traffic. If you can come you get on the 401 (main hwy) and head east, look for the thickson road exit and head north of the exit, the first street past the exit is consumers drive turn left and you will see montana's straight ahead on the left hand side.

There is a new member on my other list from Sudbury if you want I can give her your email so you can set up an emailing chat forum or meeting. I think meeting other bandster is awesome it helps to meet other people going through the same things as you. Let me know

We do a lunch every month, and we move it around the city so that more bandsters can come. I tend to book one in the east, one in scarborough, one around yorkdale and then in month four we go west and I book one in mississauga.

So if you can't make this one hopefully you can make one of the others we plan.

      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.
