Topic: RE: Holiday Party update w/ menu!!!!!!!!!
Has anyone had a chance to speak with Maura to find out the sauce she used on the pulled chicken for the party? the party I am attending is on Saturday and I wanted to make it.
Topic: RE: Clothing Exchange?
We have a clothing swap every other month at my weight loss center. Certain times of the year (like as the seasons change) the swaps are a huge hit. Is this something you can bring up to the people at your weight loss center? They might be into it as long as people are willing to help with the set up and clean up.

Highest weight = 272, surgery weight = 240, goal weight = 135
That is a good idea, I think I'll bring that up at the meeting next week. Thanks for the suggestion!

Hi, I have alot of size 26/28 and 3X clothing that I've outgrown. I want to give it to someone who can use it. I think Goodwill and Veterans collects and sells as bulk, so basically they become rags. I'd hate to see that happen. Anyone have any info on clothing exchanges or what types of items consignment stores take?
Thanks.
Meg

Topic: RE: Hungry!
Hi! I didn't have to do a liquid diet (or any restrictive diet for that matter) so I can't give the best advice. I do think 3 weeks with only shakes is a little extreme ... that would kill me! LOL
Mixing in SF jello and fruit is a great way to make shake - you can also look for DaVinci and Torani (or any other brand) of SF syrups - they are great in the shakes.
I've had the surgery already and I have some days where I am starving as well!
It doesn't sound like you are doing anything wrong!! A liquid diet is pure hell whether or not you've had the surgery..
You are right - every hospital and program is different. I had my sx done at Tufts and we did not have to be on any special diet leading up to surgery (they wanted us to try out the high protein, low fat & low sugar diet of course but no special diet was 100% required)
It will get easier ... I know it may not seem like it but it will :)
