Looking for Bandsters in NW Houston

Evenings and weekends work for me too. Shall we dive in and plan an initial meeting this Saturday or Sunday at 2 pm at the Starbucks on 290 at Spring-Cypress, in front of Best Buy?

I'm up for 2pm on Sat...I'm checking w/DH now about schedule...apparently Kroger is having a one day sale and he wants to go. (He's the coupon cutter in the family...and he loves Kroger.)

lol It's their big "Southwestern Open House" or something like that. Lots of food samples....and I haven't even started soft foods yet. :smile2: So I'll be staying away...too tempting!

I live in the Katy area. I ran into you, MistyD65, at Dr. Bonnor's office. My surgery was two years ago by another doctor. I was just recently filled for the first time since having my gallbladder removed. I'd love a meet up somewhere. Just let me know where and when.

Hooray! I just got your email reply too! Glad things went well with your fill.

Well, we are having a noon birthday party for my 1 year old granddaughter on Saturday so I will miss the first meet but you guys go ahead and I will catch the next one. I really hope this will take off. It is so good to talk to people who understand some of what we are dealing with.

Hmm, maybe Sunday at 2 pm would be better. So far it's only me, for certain, on Saturday and that won't be any fun!

Either one works fine for me...As long as DH gets his Kroger fix, I'm good either day. :wink2:

Is 2pm still good, or should we change it if that's a hard time for everyone?

Great! 2 PM on Sunday it is! Having at least 3 people makes it seem a bit more like a "group". Shall I try to contact the others who had expressed an interest, but haven't been back in the thread in a while? I think there was a Katy-specific thread too, and maybe another about our area. I'll look in there as well.

Please count me in for the next one! :)

      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.
