Well, we've never really had a "group" meeting. Ike messed us up with the first one we planned and we just never got around to setting up another one. I have gotten together on different occasions with different people, but I'd love to drum up interest again for a group meet-up. Depending on who else responds for this one, we could plan to meet somewhere on 290 between 6 and Fry Rd. Misskitty and I like Chuy's, but we could also do the Starbucks at 290 and Spring Cypress (the one in front of the Best Buy, near the Target shopping center.)

And 11 am is fine with me!

Oooh...Chuy's.... (wiping drool off chin). I love Chuy's! (Poor Las Rosa's! I guess they're still good for the over flow when Chuy's gets too crowded.)

Out of curiosity, what do you guys get there? I love the Chuychanga, with Boom Boom, and can usually get at least 1/2 of it down w/out a problem. Unfortunately!

Las Who? lol Yeah, I was glad when the Chuy's in Cypress opened, and even more glad that I DON'T live in Cypress - it would be much too tempting.

My pick has always been the Ground Sirloin Burrito. I can eat about half of it, if I haven't enjoyed too many chips with creamy jalepeno sauce (that stuff is heavenly!) I don't eat the rice since being banded. Last time MissKitty and I went we shared the Panchos with ground beef. It was just enough.

LOL - Man, now I'm really regretting asking about it. I'm halfway through the first day of the 5 day pouch test and I'm struggling now with the thoughts of Chuy's.

Maybe Starbucks for a Saturday meet will be okay with everyone? :wink_smile:

Awww, we'll miss you! We'll definitely plan something again soon.

Gloucester, looks like it is just you and me for Saturday. Are we still on?

We are still on! Is 11am still good? And where would you like to meet? Anywhere in that area is okay with me.

11 am is fine. You know, I've been dying for some French onion Soup from La Madeline. Would there be ok? I'm pretty easy. Might be a good idea to exchange cell numbers too (in PMs of course!)

Hello all... I just moved to Houston and I'm in the Westchase District, off 10 and Beltway 8 and would love to meet some bandsters in the area.

Please let me know if there will be any other meetings/get togethers...

Feel free to add me on Facebook as well, wonderwmn2004@yahoo.com

Thanks,

Jenny

Hi everyone,,, Sharon, I see that you started this inquiry for a Starbucks support group last year, but I was wondering if you were still meeting? I live on Telge near 290 so it's very close to me. I can use all the support I can get. My surgery was in October and my weight is coming off SO slow,,, due for my 3rd fill next week and hoping that helps some.

      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.
