Thanksgiving Challenge?



Recommended Posts

Has anyone started a Thanksgiving Challenge? If not, would anyone want to? I don't really know how to format a spreadsheet. I am at 224 today and am aiming for 214 by Thanksgiving, which is about 4 weeks from now.

Hey I made a spreadsheet!!! Wahoo!! Here is the link:

https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Am5-D5xrt3dKdDJMUVVabzBnMG1qY3JBeWxScGItM0E&hl=en&authkey=CMjw7tUJ

Encourage everyone to join the Turkey Day Challenge 2010!!

Edit: its not formatted correctly so the colums add up right!! if anyone knows how to do that it would be awesome - the basic spreadsheet is there, it just needs the right formulas. So close lol!

Hey I actually think I figured out how to format my spreadsheet. If its cool, can we use that one? I think its easier to enter current weight (and have the spreadsheet calculate pounds lost) rather than how many pounds per each individual week were lost (that's hard for me to track). Here is the link to the one I made: https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Am5-D5xrt3dKdDJMUVVabzBnMG1qY3JBeWxScGItM0E&hl=en&authkey=CMjw7tUJ

Let me know what you think!

Also, I'm thinking with my spreadsheet, if some jerk comes in a deletes everything (like they did with the Christmas Challenge) you won't need to remember how many pounds you lost each individual week to sign yourself back up. You just have to remember your starting weight (or estimate), and enter your current weight and the sheet will do the rest for you.

      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.
