August Luncheon



Recommended Posts

Thanks to all that attended todays lunch at Applebee's. It was great to meet everyone and put a face to a name. We had one gentleman join us and I hope we didn't embarass him too much. I look forward to our September lunch. Take care, D:hungry:

I can echo those sentiments - too bad we were late, but sure appreciate those of you who stayed to chat with Lori and I. Next time we will be on time. Thanks for all the encouragement and tips.

Bummer.... I missed the latest meeting of the band gang. I am so very disappointed but will try to get my act together in order to connect with you all on Sept 16.

I really enjoyed my first lunch with everyone and I sure do believe that it is a very fine and important thing that we make a point of experiencing face time with each other. We are all members of a very special club. It is nice to connect in the real world, eh.

      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.
