BARIATRIC PAL ONTARIO/CHINO COMMUNITY SUPPORT GROUP


***SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 9:30 - 11:00 am***



Hi Everyone!


A BIG thank you to everyone who came for our very first August Group! It was my pleasure to meet all of you and spend time with you. I hope you felt welcome, comfortable, and supported and will choose to make BariatricPal Ont/Chino YOUR bari support group!


Please join us for September's group! We will be starting our Mini-Topic of the Month, where we will spend 15-20 minutes educating on a topic that is particularly challenging for most of us.

September's topic is those (processed/refined/junk food) carbs.


If this will be your first time at Ont/Chino, we meet the FIRST SATURDAY OF EVERY MONTH from 9:30-11:00 am at

KAISER PERMANENTE ONTARIO/VINEYARD MEDICAL CENTER (Building A, 3rd Floor),

2295 S. Vineyard Ave., Ontario 91761.


DIRECTIONS:

From the 60 Fwy, take the Vineyard Ave exit. The Medical Center is on Vineyard Ave, just north of the 60 Fwy (NE corner Vineyard Exit & 60 Fwy). When you enter the short driveway from Vineyard Ave, you'll see a tall building just to your left. That is Building A. There will be ample parking in the lot in front of the building. Enter the building's double doors and you will see a large receptionist area. The elevators are just to your right of the receptionist area. (DO NOT CHECK IN at the reception desk; proceed directly to 3rd floor.)


PLEASE RSVP:

If you have not already RSVP'd for Sept's group that you WILL be attending, please do so to ontchinochapter@aol.com no later than Friday, September 5 so we have enough copies of materials for all.


Thank you. See you on the 6th!

Sherry

Hi BariatricPal Pals,

September 6 Group: Many thanks to everyone who came to Saturday's Group!

Great to see familiar faces and happy to see new ones! We VERY UNEXPECTEDLY had 29 in attendance!!! Only 15 had RSVP'd, so I had prepared my entire Agenda around that number. I hope that in spite of our spoiled Agenda, you were still able to get some valuable support and information you can use.

I am sorry that our seating was messy, that the atmosphere had to seem so "rushed," and that some did not have an opportunity to talk. Those who are just beginning to explore WLS, and those who came for support to get back on track following some regain will take first priority at next meeting. I will be spending this month working on ideas for a different group format to better serve our increasing attendance. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Next group is Saturday, October 4, same time, same place. I'll send out a reminder notice about 10 days before. Thanks, everyone. Have a great month!

Sherry

BARIATRIC PAL COMMUNITY SUPPORT GROUP

First Saturday of Every Month, 9:30-11:00 AM


***NEXT SUPPORT GROUP IS SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 9:30-11:00 AM***


Hi BariatricPal Pals!


We're celebrating our Super September Group!!!

I am DELIGHTED that we were almost 30 STRONG. As you know, our Agenda had been planned based on 15 RSVPs, so of course that meant several of you did not have an opportunity to share what may have been very important for YOU. We have a great new plan for October's Group to better accommodate our exciting growth, so that everyone who wants to speak can do so. Please bear with us--thank you!



October's Mini-Topic of the Month will be:

Self-Care Tips & Tricks: Taming That S-T-R-E-S-S Monster!



You can help A LOT to keep our support group productive and powerful by

PLEASE RSVPing if you are coming, NO LATER THAN THURSDAY night, OCTOBER 2 TO:

      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.
