Topic: RE: Anyone want to go to Chicago
Count me in!!! I have a van that will hold 6 passengers plus a driver...I would be more than happy to drive if we have 7 people or less (and we can get someone else to drive if we have more). I will check into hotels and see if I can find a deal for us. My sister in law lives in Chicago. This would definately be fun!! The Mount pleasant people could meet me in Ainsworth and Carol we could meet in Davenport area to get you!! :) I will update you on what I find out for hotel, but if we share rooms I bet we can save money that way!!

That does sound like a great conference. I love watching Big Medicine. Haven't been able to find it much on TLC lately, not sure why. I would think if a group were going to go they would need to decide/get tickets within this next month. I know in the past I have gone to conferences at work and they waited too long to make the arrangements, so I had to stay at an offsite hotel, which takes the fun out of it. Not sure where I will be on my journey by then, hopefully post-op. I got my Psych visit sched for March 12. YEAH!!

That would be fun, but even if we just get a few, we could always carpool over.

JJ,
I saw that Chicago event and thought it would be great to go. If you can get a group up, maybe we could take a charter bus to it together. Maybe leave from a central location for anyone interested in going. I'll take a look at the event again and keep posting on here if you get a group together.

Topic: Updates
I haven't seen anyone post here lately and just wondering how everyone is doing? The message board has been quiet lately and I just thought I'd check in and see how everyone is.
I'm 11 days post-op and doing well. Eating and moving is so easy! Can't believe this surgery can go that smoothly. I go back to work tomorrow and looking forward to that. I'll be playing catch up for most of this week because that's how it always goes.
Post and let me know how you are all doing, please.

Topic: RE: Protein drinks
If you go to vitalady.com, she has 1 serving samples of quite a few proteins for $1.99 each. I've tried a lot of them....my favorites so far are the Lean Desserts Cinnamon Bun, and the Nectar Fuzzy Navel. (I like to mix the Nectars with Crystal LIght to mask any protein-taste.) Another website, bariatriceating.com has a sample pack of different proteins too, and comes with a shaker cup and book. Oh, and I also found out that vitacost.com sells the cannisters of Lean Desserts for around $15 when they're a lot more everywhere else, AND they also only charge $4.95 for shipping no matter how big your order is. The Lean Desserts line comes in smaller cannisters, which is nice because you can try more flavors that way without getting tired of them! They also have a Banana Nut Bread flavor that's pretty good.
