Wait a second, how are people getting 30 day chips when I didn't even start the clock till October 6? I'm watching you people! I quit a few days before the thread, so tomorrow I get my 30 day chip for no soda. Today is Day 1 of no eating in bed (yep, that's an issue.)

Congrads Jon! You better hope you had a head start :mad:

First...I'd like to thank all the members of the academy. Then...I'd like somebody to tell me what I do with this Chip! I'll try to copy and paste it...but I'm not very efficient at that yet!

I earned my chip quick because I had quit caffeine on my own the week before my surgery, which was on the fourth. While, I was sitting at home recovering...I stumbled across our little bandland...and have become a bandland addict (Delarla, we may need to start a 12 step program for email addicts the next time you're in Minneapolis!). So anyway, I did have a head start..and then just stuck with it thanks to your challenge.

Now here's the next one...and it's gonna' SUCK BIG TIME! I've been eating garbage. Smaller amounts of it...but garbage, nonethless. I'm going to take the next 30days to remain off caffeine...but I'm adding 30 days with NO SWEETS.....

AAAAAAAAAUUUUGH!!!!!!! I hate it already...but after losing 41 pounds since I started teaching this year...I stalled this week with no loss because I have been eating little Snacks.

CARPE' SNACKUM....Seize the snacks! Day one...and day 31 no go-juice. Yippee-freakin' skippy.

You know, Jon, neither I nor Penni can figure out how to put these into a signature - so all you get is your own thread - unless Penni has had some sort of epiphany from the computer gods...

Dude!! No Caffeine AND no Sugar?? You are a better man than I... That's for sure. We'll be here waiting to add another chip - and upgrade you to a 60 day for the Sugar.

Way to go!!

I'm very confused. Can't we move this to the orginal thread? That's where everyone started counting days, and now I can't keep up. Bean, the slightest confusion could catapult me into Never=Neverland. Why, oh why? Now GIMME MY CHIP :mad: But in the other thread, please.

Penni, Sunnykim has her avatar posted in her signature line. How did she do that? Now moderate already and get me a chip! Please? Thank you.

It is so good to hear other people who understand the sweet thing. I was just banded on 10/20 and have been eating junk (sweets - cookies) since being able to eat again. It makes me nervous and I feel very little restriction which is scarey. I want a fill but the doc won't do one for 3 more weeks. I don't think I have lost but a few pounds. Did anyone else experience this when they were first banded? Did your eating get much better after your first fill??? HELLLPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!

I am off of sweets as of TODAY!

Mermaid...I'm there, too...sugar is going to be so much harder to let go of than caffeine. I have my first fill in 2 weeks, and I want to hit 50 lbs before then. Uh, but I need to start counting tomorrow. I'm still cold turkey off caffeine, but let's just say the Krispy Kremes that I had in celebration of a student's birthday were off the menu. But the treats were delicious!

...great, now I have guilt.

OK...day one Friday, Mermaid, You game? I have a calendar that I mark on. They say that you only have to something for 2 weeks before you've created a new natural habit. So go go go!

And I think I figured out the chip thing...if it's not on my signature by the end of the night...just know that I spent a lot of hours and used bad words trying to figure it out.

Clearly you figured it out, Delarla. OK...Hello slumberparties!!! Naughty naughty signature! But it did make me smile

See ya', gang!

Jon

You need to host the pic somewhere online (ie it needs its own url), then add it to your signature by clicking on the lil picture of a mountain under the User CP>Edit Signature bit(that lets you put in the url for your picture and makes it stick).

      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.
