Goals For The Remainder Of 2012



Recommended Posts

Goals to reach by December 31st, 2012:

1. Be in Onederland

2. Be on week 6 of Couch to 5k program

3. Be able to rock a little black dress for New Year’s Eve (without wondering if I am making a fool of myself)

I figured if I put them out here into LapBandTalk world, I would hold myself more accountable! What are everyone else's goals to hopefully attain by the end of the year?

Lose the last stubborn bit of weight that I am holding onto.

Get rid of my ghosts of the past by not assuming people will judge me a certain way.

Be consistent with my Water intake.

Do one thing that I have never done and always wanted to.

  1. Lose 1 more lb by 12/9... so I can hit my original goal of 160 by my 2 year band anniversary.

  2. Lose 6 lbs by 12/18 the day I am having my Tummy Tuck and breast lift... and then lose 5 lbs of skin during surgery so I can be at my stretch goal of 150 by New years. :)

I've actually surpassed all my goals for 2012. I wanted to lose 100 pounds by my one year band anniversary coming in January, I've lost 168.

I was way over 400 pounds last Christmas. This Christmas, I'll be thrilled if I can be under 250, so that's my last goal of the year. Lose 4 more pounds by Christmas.

I don't really have a specific date, it's just that I started running and completed a 5k and I feel that pretty soon I'm gonna be ready to run a 10k. But you gave me a good idea, I'm gonna look for a specific 10k and prepare for it.

Good luck on yours !!!

      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.
