Musicians and music lovers



Recommended Posts

Hi all! I have been trying unsuccessfully to start a social group for musicians, singers instrumental, and anyone who loves music. It might be interesting to talk about how we do, banded or unbanded in the music field. It doesn’t matter what type of music you play or sing, or if you just love music and enjoy talking about the kinds that interest you.

Let me know if you’re interested and, as I saw another poster do, I’ll send you an invite, because that’s the only way I know how to get this group off the ground! (Thank you, aprilapple, for the idea.)

Having said that, I hope I know how to send invites! Lol

Good luck Serenity and thank you for posting on the girlfriends forum. I am not musically inclined so that makes me envious of your wonderful gift! Please continue to visit and post on the girlfriends forum as well. Talk to ya later

Oohh, definitely count me in. My first instrument was the guitar when I was five and I've been picking up instruments ever since. I'm a bit of a one-woman-band as over the course of the last 23 years I've learned so many different instruments.

I love, love, love music. Performing, writing, talking about - love it all!

I have to admit too, I've been too embarassed at my current size to play for anyone anymore so I'm secretly excited about the prospect of being comfortable enough in my own skin to get infront of a crowd and play in a band again.

Hi Laurenwhite82 and Tristessa! Glad you're interested, and I'm so jazzed! :-) I'll send you invites! Let's get this thing started!

Trestessa, like you, I haven't done much performing because of my weight, but I am accompanying a musical theater class, and I do play for singers who are friends, as well. Anyway, I'll save it all for the group. Thanks again, ladies!

If there's another way to join that anyone knows of, please feel free. I don't want anyone to get the impression that this is an invitation only group!

      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.
