Whymomwhy - you can do this! It's always hard to stay on track when you are out of your normal routine when out of town though. I am going out of town myself in November and pretty scared about that :/ just gotta plan for it with lots of exercise.. If at a hotel, get ourselves to the fitness center. Drink plenty of Water, and focus on non food activities.

Lose_it - missed you around here :) I had a plateau too. Stepping up my exercise was the biggest help.

Breakfast - 6oz yogurt

lunch - 1 pita with 2tbsp PB

dinner - 1/2c chicken breast, 1/4c Caesar salad

Dessert - 1 (5oz) skinny cow ice cream (I recommend this. Yummy and only 160 cals so guilt free)

snack - 8oz skim milk, Water, fat free hot chocolate

Thank you Ladies! It will be easier I am transfering work closer to home and I won't be spending 3+ hours on the road a day. Which is the best decision for my family and Me!! It's weird but I feel like life has taken control and its a fight between it and me for control!

But I'm heading to my LB dr today I need to get control again! I won't hit my big goal by my 30th birthday but my new goal is to lose 20 more lbs by then!

Yesterday

Breakfast oatmeal

Lunch: busy at work took 15 mins and ate animal crackers

Getting back on the saddle. Had my dr apt yesterday am. Which I gained but I knew that was going to happen just coming off of steroids. And going into bad habits.

Thanks Daisy I need a firm talk from time to time. Old habits creep up and become out of control very easy. I need to remember I did this for me.

Breakfast Almond dark chocolate milk

      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.
