akirrastar, sorry it seems like so long ago I was on phase 1 but I guess just eggs or maybe an omelet with veggies and cheese in it. Get used to it is cause you always eat Protein first once you are banded.

Luckyclover4u, I live on Seneca up the street from St. Teresas in the former South Presbyterian Church. To bad you still dont live on Seneca Street.

Hey everyone else.....there is a lapband conference at the LaGuardia Airport Marriott March 21st. If you are interested, early bird registration saves $50 but you must register by January 19th. I am registerred and looking forward to going.

I found it was really easy to make a couple scrambled eggs with cheese on them. I always said I never had time for breakfast but i found it literally dsnt take more than 2-3 minutes. Sometimes I would chop up some green/red peppers ahead of time & saved them in the fridge & then just took a little as needed. That helped to save time in the morning. Or I liked to take 1-2 slices of l/fat deli meat (no bread) & just put a little bit of mayo, a piece of romaine lettuce & slice of red pepper & roll it up. Those were pretty good & easy to eat on the go. At the very least maybe grab a handful of unsalted nuts. I always tried to have a piece of part skim string cheese on hand. It helped to fill me up a little when I would be dying to grab something quick & easy from the dreaded vending machine at work...hope this helps a little.

I got my 3 hr consult. scheduled for Jan 20 at 10:00am. Does anyone else have to go then?

[bloomerific 5]

I called to change my next appointment because they called me and told me that Dr. Hoffman wouldn't be in tomorrow, etc. so I thought that meant no appointment! Well, that just meant I'd be with Laurie...but I'd made other plans tomorrow! SO I couldn't get an appointment until February 3rd!!!! Can't believe it! Anyway, Malissa did say that The Hoff may start having Wednesday appointments to deal with the overload, so who knows I might get in more quickly if he gets the approval for Wednesdays. Are they hiring another doc or what? Poor Hoff and Posner must be DYING!

I am going to the seminar today. I have been waiting along time and am super excited :thumbs_up: I have heard nothing but wonderful things about Dr Hoffman. But My PCP knows Dr Posner and wants me to see him. How is Dr Posner?

[lindatatu 0]

I think both doctors are wonderful.

I am walking at 8am on Saturday at Galleria Mall. Hope I am not alone!

[val 7]

BetsyLynne; both docs are great---this thread just happened to start as a Hoffman lovefest. :cool: :regular_smile: But Posner is just as qualified, etc. but Hoffman does lap bands exclusively. Dr. Posner also does gastric bypass.
