I enjoyed the meeting so much today!! Everyone was so nice. I could have sit there all day. We had five people in all different stages of being banded. Met some new people too they were so nice and I hope everyone will come to the next one. I also enjoyed hearing someone in the group say how much she depends on God to help her get through this because I totally agree and also do. Anyone who wants to come join us like Andrew hopefully that is not the superbowl or something. Is it? I just thought about that

Just checked it is not the Superbowl. Come if you can!! 2:00 pm

Okay we missed everyone today! We had two new people today one banded a year and one not band yet. They are such nice people. But . . . . .we missed all our other people. Where are you? We missed you. We planned another one for March 28 at Starbuck by target across from Baybrook Mall. (Really in is in the PetsMart and Chucky cheese shopping Center) but by the road but can make changes if we need to. Just let us know. Hope everyone is doing do great

Here is another reason to come because you never know who you will meet. One of the people who came today was my best friend my whole childhood. My dad died when I was 10 and over the years we lost total touch. After about 1½ hours of talking to her we figured out who each other was. It made my day!!!!! Come and see what happens to you!

Sad thing is I was in the area at the mall getting my wife some stuff at Victorias Secret. I got home around 5 and went oh holy hell I totally forgot about this today. I'll have to set my calander to give me a reminder. I have the attention of a squirrll sometimes.

      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.
