Wasn't this combined with the Bandstock planned for June 25, 2005 in Sterling Heights, Michigan? There's a thread w/more info. about it on here.

Boy am I behind! Can't imagine how I missed this one! I didn't realize there were so many of us up her in Chi-town (or close to it). I always here about Texas.

I'll have to check out the other thread as I would love to finally meet all y'all (but I am originally from Texas)!

Marie is right -- since Bandstock in Michigan will be held in June, I for one suggested dropping the Chicago summer bash. I'm sure Chi-town will be well represented in Michigan!

I would definitely attend since I live in Chicago. We would have a wonderful time as Chicago is a great town for having fun.

      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.
