So how do you like it on the Arkansas side? I live about 15 minutes from Fayetteville, crazy.

northwest arkansas is great (the rest of the state needs a little help though)! i love it up here. sometimes i think i never want to leave. but no matter how much i love it here, i will always be a texan. where do you live?

I lived in Fayetteville for about 18 years, so I was pretty much raised there. Now I live in a little town just outside of Springdale (Lowell.) It's nice though, a short drive to anywhere in NWA I need to go. Arkansas will always be home to me, lol. What have you found to be your favorite thing to do up here? It's nice to find someone about my age in the same area on here.

i know where lowell is. during the fall, saturday football games are my fav. in the spring, baseball games are my fav. but mostly i find myself doing a lot of shopping. love the mall in rogers when the weather is nice. sometimes i go up to eureka or over to tulsa. on the weekends, dickson st. gets a lot of my attention. but during the week i spend most of my time in the sam m. walton business building. i have considered giving up my apartment and just moving in there. did you go to school at arkansas?

Not a whole lot to do in Lowell, but fortunately I'm only about 5 minutes from the Promenade in Rogers! I used to love Dickson St. I used to be a regular at the night clubs, not so much anymore, only on special occasions. I enjoy going to FAC and swimming...I haven't really had the motivation to do that in a while so I'm having fun with it again. I'm also a movie buff, we own a little over 500 DVD's. I was going to school at NWACC for a while but taking a break right now. BTW...enjoy the move from your apartment into the office. That should be interesting -- Lol. Where were you banded, or are you banded yet?

      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.
