so I've been doing the challenges since October, and unfortunatly missed this one! I've had a lot going on with changing jobs and everything, so I didn't end up logging on. But I'm back, and I'm down 71 pounds so far! Now that the stress is gone, and I joined a gym, I'm back to losing again! I'm so excited, I was so sick of that plateau!! Just wanted to update you all, and i'll be back next month!

WE are holding you to that, if you don't join up next month we'll come looking for your. teeth_smile.gif

Very frustrating. I worked my patooty off this week at the gym. NO CHANGE. Back to the gym tomorrow! Great job to all! Let's keep up the good fight.

Wow, you'd think with your patooty missing there would be a major weight loss. I know mine weighs a ton.

Weighed in at 285 this morning, so -5 lbs from Jan 1st. I am pretty sure this is all Water as I have a stomach bug right now. However, I will take it.

I guess this is an example of making the best out of a bad situation.

Checking in today...

My weight today is 177 which is 2 pounds down from last week, however since I was up 3 on the first week after my trip, I still am up a pound from my Jan 1 weigh in. With 2 more weeks left for this challenge it is pretty hard to believe I will make my original goal of 169 but I am not going to give up on it yet. I will work hard to get as close as I can get.

Good luck Everyone. I will be checking in next Sunday.

      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.
