I've added myself, too! Of course, I discovered that my home scale was not correct and that my starting weight was actually 240, so I'm trying to lose 25 instead of 20. Fortunately, I knocked out that first 5 lbs this past week! :redface:

I'm down 2.2 pounds this week. New weight, 247.4. I can't wait for my fill this afternoon. My husband remarked upon how quickly I ate lunch yesterday and it's true. The restriction seems to have flown the coop! (Maybe I can find it on farmville since I just expanded my chicken coop! lol) I think this weight loss was truly from exercising five days last week.

ETA: I use Mondays as my official weigh in date so my figures on the spreadsheet reflect that.

Weighing in this week at 179 (down 1 lb since last week--I'll take it!)

My goal is to be 170 by Easter, so hopefully my fill on Thursday will jump start some more weight loss. Fingers crossed, everyone!

Hope you are all doing well!!

I'm down .9 this week and very happy with that. I was only able to exercise 2 times last week as I got a head cold. I'm now at 198.6. I added my info the the spreadsheet. I have 8.6 to my goal and only 5 weeks to go. Not sure I'll make it but I'm happy to be losing.

Hope you all have a great week!

      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.
