I would love to participate. This will be my first challenge. Although I am not banded yet, but will be on September 8th, YES YES YES!!!. I would like to lose as much weight as I can before surgery.

Hello,

If your Labor Day Challenge doesn't come together, please consider joining us in the monthly challenge that I set up. This month's challenge is titled, The Freedom Challenge. There will be an August challenge starting on August 1st. We weigh in weekly and post our weights. We also set goals for ourselves each month for weight loss, dietary, exercise and personal. A member keeps our stats for us.

Best wishes, Joan

We post under the "Post-operation lap band surgery questions and answers."

Check out our Freedom Challenge for July.

The new August challenge will start August 1st but I'll have a page up by the end of July.

I think we will have to join you guys. I dont know how to make the spreadsheet so that everyone can enter their information. I think it is done thru google. MollyRN started the last one. Maybe if she reads this she can forward it on to us or start one.:lol:

To keep our stats secure we have one member enter the data each week for us on the spread sheet. No one else has access to it so it doesn't get messed up.

We are happy to have anyone join our challenge! :D

      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.
