Hi, I live in the plano/frisco area! I know that both Presbyterian plano and Baylor frisco have monthly support groups. I know Baylor frisco's next class is tues the 24 at six pm. I am going to try and make that one, would be my first meeting. But it depends on if hubby can be off work early enough yo take care of the kids :)

I also wanted to add that I think if you go to their websites they should have the meeting schedules posted. Who are you seeing? Good luck, you are going to do great I am sure :)

I don't know Nicholson but then there are a lot of great bariatric doctors in this area, I am sure he will do a great job! I see dr cribbins, he is partners with dr hamn.

Where do I go when I get to Baylor?

I am so sorry I am just now seeing this. The coordinator has signs out pointing the way. I hope you found it, I had to skip bc hubby could not make it home to stay with kids and no one under 18 in meeting, and no u supervised children allowed in lobby, or I would have set them there with some entertainment. If we get back from colorado in time, I will come to the July meeting...

      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.
