It takes time. It's summer and people are on vacation and out doing other things.

We have binders with different topics for every month.

Good morning everyone!

Yes, although our meeting was small, it was FUN! The next meeting is July 16 and we will spend the first 10 mins doing introductions and 10 mins on other administrative issues (vote on Rules, ask for volunteers for taking minutes, carpooling). The other 40 minutes will be a lesson (haven't decided which one I'll do first - but I have 5) and Q&A. A clothing swap has been proposed, so that will be after the meeting.

Thanks!

"Rome Wasn't Built in a Day"

We had 11 members at our first NYC meeting. I promise if we keep at it we can make BP Support Groups a huge powerhouse. It'll take a little time but it'll be solid once it's in place :D

      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.
