I'm down another 2.5 this week. I weigh myself on Saturdays only (otherwise I would drive myself insane). I likely won't make my original goal of 20 lbs in this challenge, but I'm so happy with my restriction and steady loss right now that I don't care.

It took 3 months before my band was really working, so now that it is, I am thrilled.

My goal for this week: more time in the gym!

Thanks all for the support and info. You are the best.

I record my weight on Saturdays too. I'm plugging along although I feel a little behind. Updating my ticker today; I am a little. Gonna try to kick up the exercise a little next week and see what happens.

I lost 4 lbs this week!!!!! I think I might make my goal of 16.6 lbs by labor day as I am only 3.2 lbs away from my goal n we have two more weeks to go.

Guh. Definitely not going to succeed at this challenge - GAINED 2 pounds over last week, probably because I overdid it at Friendlys this weekend in a fit of frustration and self-pity. I probably should not have signed up for a challenge prior to getting an actual restrictive fill. :)

I go for another fill on Wednesday, and my doctor is pretty aggressive with them, so hopefully I'll be out of my funk and back on track.

I am so excited to finally be in Onderland as of this morning. I didn't make the July 4th challenge, but I feel pretty confident that I will make the Labor Day challenge. I have 4.5 lbs. to go and I get a fill next Monday. Finally...I was stuck for over 2 weeks, but I have been working by butt off, literally in the gym. Good luck, everybody.:)

      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.
