Being accountable.

I dont know where I read it but someone blogged about challenging people to stop lurking and blog about what you are doing; either daily or weekly or whatever helps to keep you honest.

I took that challenge up and some days I run late, but I try to post a weekly weigh in.(speaking of which, time to update my weigh in blog)

Even if you think no one reads it, make a promise to yourself no matter how many times you weigh yourself. Pick one day, that will be your "official" weight of the day and then post it. I have a small bit of pride that tells me to get off my duff and start being accountable for my health.

Here's one that many people might not like, but i'll try anyway:

GET A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP!

I know that when I'm overtired i'm cranky which causes me to get irritated and eat.

Also, when your overtired everything somehow seems like a mountain- including dieting!

sleep helps us stay healthy and our bodies burn calories/build muscle/rejuvenate while we sleep

So rest up and remember tomorrow is another day B)

      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.
