I am in Albany and would LOVE to meet in a group setting. I teach, so the evenings would be good for me also. I think it would benefit us if we could all decide on which night of the week is best. Some of us go to church on Wednesday nights, and that may not be a good night. I, myself, prefer Thursday nights, or even Tuesday, but not Monday, only because I dont like to plan something that early in the week. I know this is only once per month to start out, maybe we could first all decide on a day, then decide on the first, second, third or fourth week of each month.

Thanks for taking it upon yourself to get this ball rolling georgia girl.

Hi Dana, I'm so glad you are interested. Once we get the group going, we can decide on a permanent day of the month to meet (like the 2nd Thursday of every month or whatever).

Tuesday or Thursday evenings would be good for me too. How about everyone else, do you have a preference?

Mia31771 pm'ed me and said she wants to be in on it. We need to give those that work time to get to the meeting. And for some people it's about an hour away. Maybe even more for some?

Thursday evenings are better for me. Any idea for band friendly restaurants?? Maybe we need to figure out where everyone is and try to meet someone in the middle of where we are. Maybe Tifton would be a central location? Just throwing that out, I saw that nip lives in douglas so tifton would be closer for her than albany. What do ya'll think?

Thanks for thinking of me mia, but if I'm the only one that lives in this direction, it wouldn't be fair to everyone who lives closer to Albany. I would love to go, but it is too far for an evening trip. Let me know where everyone decides on. Thanks again.

Tifton is closer for me as well, just trying to figure out where everyone is located so we can pick a central spot.

Tifton is about 45 minutes from me,which is fine. If we do Thursday can it be on the first Thursday or third thursday of the month? I have a meeting at work on the 2nd and 4th thursday of each month.What restaraunt in Tifton is good ?

      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.
