2008 National Lap-Band Conference



Recommended Posts

The last time I spoke to Melting Mama she said she will be there, I'll find out for sure.

I hope she is!!! I know she and "Eggface" were doing LA and Philly but I haven't seen either of them mention Houston and it's not listed in the info on OH either. I'll keep my fingers crossed!

Hey Paige,

I spoke to Melting Mama last night and she will be in Houston, so be sure to go say "Hi" and give her a hug for me.

Melting Mama is on our show the last Wednesday of every month so be sure to tune in to hear her product review segment.

Could you post the information regarding the dates and location for Houston pleae. I did a search but couldnt find it. I did find a bariactric cruise for next spring, anyone from the forum going on the cruise?

I would love to go on the cruise, but just don't see how it would be financially feasible for me from South Carolina. That would make for one expensive vacation!

Have you heard about the Lighten Up expo in Atlanta in January?

My husband says I am going to Atlanta no matter what. That is the week before my birthday, so I am hoping he will go with me and we can make a bit of a celebration of it. It is only about a 4.5 hour drive to the airport area for me and with the special deal on the room, you really can't beat it.

K, I know I am arriving really late in the game here, but I didnt really look into the conference much since I knew it would be in TX and I live in NY and I just couldnt have taken time off from work recently. Anyways, I saw in the last few pages of postings that there may be one upcoming in NY! How can I find out more about this???? I am super excited!

      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.
