The Woodlands - Next Get Together



Recommended Posts

I am coordinating a very informal get together for anyone who would like to come. I cannot meet in the evenings during the week so was wondering if anyone else would like to meet once a month on a Saturday at the Starbucks in the Panther Creek Village from around 9:30 - 10:30. The actual Saturday would change depending on my schedule. I met with one other person this month and really enjoyed it! Details for the next get together are below. If you can email me or reply to let me know you're coming, that would be great but not required.

What: Informal Get Together

Who: Other Lap-Band patients in The Woodlands area

Where: Starbucks, Panther Creek Village, The Woodlands

When: Saturday, March 8th, 9:30am

I would be interested! I live in Magnolia but work in the woodlands. I will send you a private message so you have my email and you can shoot me an email to confirm next week. Glad to meet you!! Your weight loss is sooo encouraging, I was banded last Friday.

Rachel,

I am interested. I, too, have a hard time getting anywhere in the evenings due to scheduling. March 8th sounds good to me.

I'd love to meet with you all. I'm scheduled to be banded on 3/14 and I'm getting very nervous and doubting myself. I think it would really help to have some other people to talk to. How do I send you an email to confirm for 3/8 meeting? All this chat stuff is pretty new to me so I don't know if I'm doing it all correctly.

Are we still on????

I am not the original poster, I have not heard from her and her email is undeliverable. If you guys would still like to meet this Saturday at 9:30am at the Starbucks at Panther Creek I'm game.

I plan on being there, and I'm bringing a friend who hasn't been banded, but is looking into it.

:thumbup: I'm excited to meet other banders. I don't know anyone in my personal life who has had one. I know a lot of people who's "sister-in-law, neighbor, ex-boyfriend's mother's pastor's wife" etc who have had it done, but no one directly.

Plus, Starbucks...Yum.

      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.
