I went to a poker game last night and against better judgement drank coffee a lot later than I should have, so if you are wondering why I am posting this at 2:30 on Sunday morning it's because I have a caffeine buzz going and can't sleep. Here are the results for week four of the Harvest Moon Challenge. Good luck everyone in the final week.

Thanks Larry, it looks great! I hope you were able to sleep in today after your late night.

Are you willing to do our October stats? You can name the challenge. ; )

Sure, and since it is October we have to do a "Very Scary Halloween Challenge". Unfortunately I still didn't get enough sleep last night either. Had tickets to see Johnny Rivers last night so we didn't get home until almost midnight and was still wound up and didn't get to sleep until about 1:30 AM so my butt is dragging at work today.

Thanks for agreeing to do the stats for "The Very Scary Halloween Challenge"! Sounds like you had a fun weekend but just need a bit more sleep, lol. It's not like when we were in our 20's and lack of sleep was a regular occurance!

Yep I felt like I was trying to relive my younger days this weekend. I has been a long time since I went to a rock concert, usually tend to attend more folk type shows. The funny thing was that I would guess that the average age of the audience was in their 50's. Of course Johnny Rivers is almost 70. It's sort of funny seeing your icons growing old.

My husband and son love folk music. My husband plays the dulcimer for fun. Hey, get some sleep tonight!

I have one of those two. Never learned to play it when I figured out that I was missing one of the most important items for playing a lap dulcimer. That would be a lap.:angry: Maybe I will revisit it now.

That is something I finally have, a lap, after close to 4 years. My 15 yo daughter seems to really like it as she now sits on my lap a lot.

I know how you feel. I have never been able to hold any of my grandchildren on my non existent lap, but I have another on the way.

My husband says it's very easy to play. He plays by ear and reads tableture? Now that you have a lap, you should make this a new goal for yourself! Maybe your October goal? Maybe for October we should each share something we can now do, or do more comfortably or do without embarrassement since losing some weight?

      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.
