Hey kids. I'm sorry I won't be at that meeting on the 10th. I'm going to be slogging along with 3000 other people riding my bike from Columbus to Portsmouth. Carol will be doing it with me next year, won't cha? Now mind you if it's raining cats and dogs, you all will see me, because I'm a fair weather cyclist.

I could swing something on the 11th, or anyone the 14th or 15th in the PM I could do. That's my spring break week! No school for me! YEAH!

Juli - you are a real testimony to the positive things one year later in losing weight has done if you are going to be able to do the Columbus to Portsmouth - TOSRV bike trip. That is heavy duty. Can't even imagine how many calories that will burn. Have a blast! and stay safe.

Awe shucks.

Yeah, the plan now is to only ride from Columbus to Portsmouth. I didn't have enough time to train to ride all 200 miles, up and back. But I'm pretty sure I can do 100 down. I'd never had guess this a year ago.

SpecialK,

Are you going to bring the balloon again this month? Or should I stop and get one?

Thanks!

Hope you all have a great time.

Julie~Good luck with your ride!! You rock Girl!!:biggrin:

Thanks, Thinner! I'm pretty stoked for the ride.

Niki, let's get together regardless. We can have lunch or something. Which is really funny two LBTers together. REALLY, it's a riot, because NO one understands like a fellow bandster.

I can't make the meeting but I want to touch base with other people too.

ThinnerMe: If I may ask, what's in Lakeland? I have family there and have been thinking of taking a short trip!

Juli, Nikki, Heather: Still don't know if I can make it. If the gas keeps going up, I won't be able to drive my guzzlin' SUV at all! I may have to shoot for June too.

      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.
