Are fellow Texans the only people capable of understanding you?:)

I'm assuming DFW stands for Dallas-Fort Worth.

No lol, but I was looking for local people to maybe hang out with, work out, etc.

I used to live in El Paso. Different time zone. Different climate. More like living in New Mexico.

Loved the mountains, but missed all the rain and snow normally in Missouri.

I might be moving to Houston. I am going to visit in a few weeks to see what areas I want to live in.

Really, Buzz, you're waiting 'til August to see what part of Texas you want to live in? Are you insane? You move to Texas in the winter so that by the time summer rolls around it's too much trouble to move again! :P

Before I had ever visited Houston, someone here told me “it’s like Newark but with 100% humidity” lol. They obviously didn’t like Houston too well. I’m in the Dallas area, and it’s not bad. The cost of living sure beats the hell out of Jersey!

      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.
