Ok Upstate Group...Where's it gonna be this week???

OK Upstaters??? (we really need to come up with a name) Where is the support group meeting this week? I think someone mention McAlisters last week. Rachel

I love McAllisters so that would suit me just fine. I only have till October 3 ( your surgery day), to eat like there is no tomorrow, then it's optifast, yummy! I hope I will be able to come see you at the hospital, I just worry that it will have the same affect on me as it did you, staying in the bathroom several times a day. Has it got any better or are you still pooping? I might be having an Imodium AD ****tail to ward off the trots OK, I will be waiting and watching to see where we are going. Take care! Mary

The optifast has gotten a little better. However, I haven't been sticking to it perfectly. I did find that mixing milk with the shakes instead of water helps a lot. I have just been trying to eat a little healthier than I was before...which that doesn't take much. For example...today DH wanted to go to waffle house for bfast - I ate protein, skipped lunch, had 2 shakes at around 4:00pm and then had 2 small pieces of pizza. Don't tell Dr. Bour!!! I just feel like this is unrealistic. But, now I will climb off the soap box. The trots stopped after one day. Rachel

Oh yeah!! Do you know how hard it is to eat healthy when you are eating out most every meal. We are packing up to move so dishes have been packed.... I'm just doing the best I can. Rachel

I'm going to make it this week, so I'm game for anything!! We just need to decide by tomorrow, because I won't be able to check the board on Monday.....unless someone wants to call me Hugs, Dianne

Mc Allister's is where it is at!!!!!!!!!!!!! We decided last week at Perkin's. I can't wait to see everyone!!!! Melissa

McAlister's in Greenville is on Monday night right? What time? I would sure like to TRY and come. Love, Debra

We will meet there at 7 after Dr. Bour's meeting.
