March Monthly Meeting



Recommended Posts

I set up a monthly meeting for another group I am a member of and we generally have a pretty good turnout. I move the locations every month so this month we are meeting on Sunday March 25, 2007 in Scarborough.

We are meeting at Jack Astors that is located at the Scarborough Town Centre, it has easy access from the 401 and the TTC. Everyone is welcome banded, thinking about being banded, pre-banding etc.

I can't say how much of a difference it makes to meet and talk to people who are going through the same things as you are for banding. I have been going to meetings for years and made some awesome friends and learned a ton of things.

let me know if you are interested in attending either by posting to this thread or emailing me privately at susieq321@hotmail.com

      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.
