Recommended Posts

So... today is day 3 and we have 27 days left to get this done!!!

Today is a MUCH better day for me. I feel more relaxed and content. My head hunger and carb cravings were so terrible yesterday. I honestly don't know how I managed to do so well. Regardless, I started this and I'm going to finish, and finish strong!!! I am feeling MUCH BETTER today too as far as cravings go. It's always the first few days that are the worst, and usually day 2 is crazy for me! I hope I can keep those cravings at bay today. :)

How is everyone else doing???

Here are my totals from yesterday:

Water: 116 Oz.

Just because I wanted it: Starbucks Skinny Caramel Macchiato Tall

Breakfast: Atkins Caramel Latte Protein shake & Small banana

Lunch: Yesterday dinner Leftovers

Snack: Peanuts & Lite string cheese

Dinner: 1/2 Carl's Jr. LoCarb Turkey Burger and 1/2 Garden salad.

Snack: 1 Tbsp Peanut Butter

Workout: Day Off!!!

But i definitely need a challenge to get my booty into gear. I definitely need to work on my Water intake. Thanks for starting the challenge.

Hi all. Sorry I have been MIA. The good news is I have my computer/work out room back. Jacob passed his summer school Algebra II with an 87, which tells me he could have passed the class if he had tried.

I spent 30 minutes on the treadmill and got in all of my Water, but didn't pay attention to the Protein intake. I have no memory these days so I don't even remember what I ate (not good). Getting back on track first thing in the morning.

      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.
