How do we get 2015 Monthly groups started?



Recommended Posts

Hi, I am having surgery on Jan. 6 and would like to be in a monthly support group but there isn't a 2015 group started yet. Who can start this?

I have the same question! I'm also having surgery on January 6th (Hi!!!), and would really like to start connecting with people on the same countdown.

I posted this question on the main page of the 2014 forum and sent a PM to someone I think is an admin on the boards, but no response yet.

Thanks, @kimdlawson06. They just put up the 2015 forums last Saturday after we finally figured out how to poke the right people. I think they forgot about setting up for the new year, but all is well now.

For anyone else who's looking for the 2015 monthly boards, they're here: http://www.bariatricpal.com/forum/1144-2015/

Cheers!

      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.
