March Madness Challenge



Recommended Posts

Loralee- I update the spreadsheet each week - usually on Saturday. The link works when I click on it so it may be your security software. Is anyone else having problems accessing it?

Hi! I have been wandering around the site but this is my first post. I was banded 3/15/2011 and I am feeling great. I am on week 2 of ful liqueds and have to admit I am not hungry...yet. I am very excited about this journey and so grateful there are so many supportive people on this site who share in this experience.

This is Loralee. Down to 202.5 this morning! Met my personal goal for the Challenge. I made it to 204 before my anniversary Saturday. :D

I see a link to what I think is the spreadsheet, but I don't see anything when I click it. It may be the security on my computer. If I'm supposed to be adding to the spreadsheet instead of posting for somebody else to do it, I'm sorry...

Congratulations on meeting your two goals for this month!!

Your stats will be on the spreadsheet. You don't need to and probably can't add your own stats, Vicky does this for us.

I am at 207.6 this AM and am anxiously awaiting onederland which I bet you are too!

Have a great day, Joan

Well my days are almost up for march maddness and I dont think I am going to make my goal. I am still 6.8 lbs away from it. Tho I lost 10lbs so far I am proud of myself. I have reached the point of bandster hell with no fill and a full appitite. I cant wait till next week to see if my first fill may help to jump start my weight loss again! BUT CONGRATS to all you bandsters out there. i realize my goal shouldnt be 15 lbs in one month anymore! haha I guess I shot a bit to far! But I will still up date untill the end of it!

I made my goal! I had a rough day food wise yesterday so I thought I'd better get on the scale this morning and see what damage I had done and lo and behold I was at my goal for March 31st! That was my first challenge and I can see how helpful they are. Down 12 lb for the month of March :)

WOW, I think 10# in a month is remarkable! 15 would probably mean you were losing too fast. ; )

      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.
