Hello everyoney. I am so very excited...I am down 1 pound (242.5). I know this doesn't sound like much, but I went on a girls weekend and am so happy that I am down 1 pound because I could have been up a whole lot more.

Today is Tuesday...arent we checking in today?

No we always check in on the 1st, 8th, 15th. and so forth regardless of what day it is.

Folks I need to apologize but it doesn't look like I will get a table with the weigh ins completed anytime soon. Way to much going on this month with three weekends of music festivals and two grandkids with birthdays my weekends are pretty much used up.

If there is anyone who would like to create something, even an exel or word document would do, let me know.

I know Larry won't be able to make a chart this month, but I would still like to log my progress to help keep me accountable. So...

Logging in with a 1 pound loss at 172.

Thanks, Terri

Do we have to be banded to join? I'm waiting on my insurance to clear and then I will be scheduling my surgery, hopefully soon! In the meantime I am trying hard to eat better and slowly starting to work exercise back in. I would love to join you guys in this challenge if its ok?

      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.
