I didn't make my goal weight but I'm still happy with the progress that I have made even when I went on a cruise for a week. I hope everyone is happy with their results...When is the next challenge?

Mine wasn't messed with either.

Merry Christmas to me! I plateaued for 2.5 weeks. I journal EVERYTHING I eat and went just over 900 calories once, but all other days stayed under 800! I was getting frustrated to say the least. Got on the scale today for the first time in 3 days (I was out of town) and I dropped 3 lbs! YaY!

I am still one pound away from my goal ... 2 days to go so hopefully I will lose one more ... but after a frustrating 2.5 weeks, I'll take this weight with a smile!

Yeah. I have gained and lost the same pound for two weeks. So I need to get vigilant on jornalling my food as well. Been hunkered down for two days following our first snow on Christmas since 1947. I was able to make it home from work Sat night without too many problems and woke to 8 inches on Sunday. I am so glad I did not get stuck at work. Not sure about where you live, but everything closes here on Christmas, even McDonalds.

Well I liked 3 pounds making my goal, but that's okay because I really enjoyed the challenge. Thanks Amanda for coming up with it and hopefully you will come up with another one soon. If you do I'm certainly in. I was really surprised that I actually lost weight over the Christmas holidays, but I was determined to get back on track and that last fill really made a difference. Again thanks all, enjoyed doing this with all of you.

Congratulations to everybody who made their Christmas goal. I missed mine by one pound, but feel good about the loss that I have. Funny how these new weights that I reach are such a thrill and then as soon as I hit them I can't wait to move the scale again. I hope that everybody participating in the New Years challenge is on target and doing well too.

Hi everyone..congrats to everyone who hit their goal. I hit a bit of a blip in the last couple of weeks. I found the challenge motivating tho and loved entering my week each week. It would be great if someone with the necessary skills could create a valentine's day challenge spreadsheet....any takers please?

I would love to do a valentines day challenge to get back on track. Please keep me posted if someone creates one. I have no idea how to start one.

      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.
