Glad you answered, CC. I just saw this.

Yes, once the holidays are over and guests leave (long story :tongue_smilie:) it would be great to get a number of us together!

That is what I thought. Lets set a date soon. Chubby - is there a time or day that works better for you? Maybe we could meet at TGI Fridays for soup! :Banane20:

Sorry for the delay in logging in here. I am ready to do any kinds of exercise or get together for support. I have not done any support since moving to VA.

I travel a lot, but work from home when not traveling, so no particular day or time is good or bad to do things. Please coordinate anything and if I am in town I will come. I live in Lansdowne on the Potomac, so I am close to anything in Leesburg or Ashburn.

I can be called at 818-269-5098 anytime or email f o o t e n at a t t dot n e t.

Thanks for trying to do this. It will be big for me.

Hi Beth,

I'm a bander in Ashburn and I meet up with some other local banders every month or so. We'll go to dinner and movie, hang out and chat, etc. I think our next meet up will be a pot luck and games night. Please give me your email address and I can include you in the next invite. Thanks.

I had sent out a couple of emails for get togethers but there didn't seem to be much interest. I'd love to get it going again.

Want to meet at Starbucks in Leesburg one night next week? (The one by Stein-Mart)

Hey guys!

I just started a meetup group for bandsters last week. I live in Herndon, but Leesburg isn't far. Perhaps we could alternate where we have meetings. Please feel free to sign up:

Lapband (or other Bariatric ) Surgery Meetup (Herndon, VA) - Meetup

I live in Leesburg and was recently banded as well. I would love to find a group to meet with (though I should warn that my schedule is hectic). I'm in Potomac Station and work in Ashburn, so I could go either place... PM me?

      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.
