That sounds great. When and where? Here is my email address colleenvazquez@aol.com:thumbup:

I need to see what the latest pre-op appt is that day so that we can make sure we don't schedule it too early to include everyone I can find on the site. I would think we should be ok to eat at 5:30 or 6:00 so that we are well under our curfew :frown: hee hee

It says light snack before 10 so you best be assured that I will eat dinner early and my snack at 9:55pm!

I'm finding a few more people that are on our same day so let me check with them and then I'll post a few choices of places and times and we can all vote. Does that work for you?

Where are you staying when you're in town? I think it would be cool to bring our support people too. I know it would be nice for my husband and mom to have someone to talk to so if they are waiting in the waiting room at the same time then they will know someone...ya know?

One more thing I forgot, I wanted to let you know that I found a really cool site that lets you blog for free and the templates are really cool. the web site is here so that you can set it up ahead of your surgery and then log your progress as you go along. That way you can post it for us to see and we can motivate each other. (if you are interested, some prefer to keep it private)

Cassy~

My surgery is not the 24th but the 29th and I would be interested in meeting you all 24thers for dinner, depending on the location. If you have it around the office or if you are staying near Dry Creek, I would love to come. I am 25 miles north of Dr.K's office and I think Parker may be a ways to drive. :thumbup: But what do I know, as I am not from this area.

I've been looking for the email you sent me, can't find it. I'd love to come tomorrow (well, tonight now) if its not too late!! I'll have 2 of my girlfriends from work with me, so a total of 3. We'll try to be there at 6, coming up from Colorado Springs. Let me know if its too late, I don't want to drive all the way up there if we can't fit in. Thanks!!:redface:

      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.
