OK final weigh in was at 171.5, so I didnt make my goal of 169 but still a loss neverthe less, so I will take it. I have to prepare myself that I wont continue to lose at the fast rate that I was losing at and be ok with that. The smaller you get the slower it is going to come off so I will deal with that and be happy with my loss this month. I really enjoy participating in these challenges though. They really give me something to push for!

Finished the challenge at 185.5

Lost 5.5 pounds.

Disappointed in myself I didn't lose that last pound and a 1/2.

Bring on the February challenge, I am more determined than ever to get my head back in the game !

Checking in late. I seem to be stuck right around 240 + or - 2 lbs. So basically I had no change for the month, at 239 Sunday morning. I think I need a fill right now so that is not helping but I have been making it to the gym more often. So rather than dwelling on what has been better to look at the future.

Everyone join up for next months "Be My Valentine Challenge".

This is Jenn S checking in at 210. I am down 1 more lb. The exercise did not go as well as I was hoping due to an illness that took the whole house out for 2 weeks. I'm back on it next month. Hoping to break 199.

      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.
