Mother's Day Challenge Anyone?



Recommended Posts

How do I get added to the spreadsheet? My initial weight was incorrect when I first signed on to the challenge. I was actually 247 (1 pound more than I first thought :sad:) and I did not lose anything the first week...thanks to Mother Nature. My total to lose would change from 12 to 13 pounds and I am now at 241.2 :thumbup: down 5.8.

Thank you if you are able to add me to the list. If now it is ok :(

I updated the spreadsheet. I am down a little over 2 pounds which I was SUPER ecstatic about because I was out of town on business and had to eat out ALL the time. :ohmy:

I had my first fill yesterday so I'm hoping to hit my goal even before Mother's Day. We'll see! :)

Only down 1 lb this week -- was hoping for more since my TOM was the week before and have been working out with my personal trainer like a crazy person. He kept me in the gym for 2 1/2 hours on Thursday night - I thought I was going to die! Hopefully, all my hard work will come through this week. I am off to a strong start this week so far even though I am traveling for work and am away from my trainer. Have to learn to do it on my own too since I travel a fair bit and that's no excuse not to exercise and eat well. Good luck to all this week!

I'm down 6 lbs this week!!!! I can't believe it. I added another workout day, and I didn't make any trips for frozen yogurt. :eek:

I love this challenge. It gives me the motivation to make better choices. I want to do another challenge right after this one! July 4th Challenge, anyone? :wink:

Alright another 2 lbs gone!!!! I think I might have set my total loss to high. I don't think I can loss another 9 lbs in two weeks but I am very happy with the 5 lbs that are gone thus far. I should get my first fill on May 6 but that is only three days before the final weigh in. Way to go everyone on all your weight loss over the last three weeks.

I'm down another 1.7 lbs which I am happy about but this weekend was rough. It's the TOM, so I'm sort of at a bloated stall for a few days. :eek:

Holy crap! Finally lost 1 lb (it's been 4 weeks, so I've been REALLY frustrated!) Had a fill on Thursday, so I'm sure it's from me being on liquids for 3 days LOL, but I'll take it!

      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.
