Here is what the Sarge needs by next Monday April 10th or whenever you can sign in :

First commit by signing & list your current weight, measurements & body fat (if available) in your post.

Once a week on Sunday or Monday Please tell me the following & I will keep track.

How much you have lost that week & how many inches(maybe ever two weeks for inches) & also your body fat % if you can get it. My scale show me & it helps motivate me- Its very hard to get it to go down.

So right now I am 214 & next Monday I will list my weight again & start from there.

Please Please Please Remember to take your measurements, they will tell the real story more than the scale.< /p>

Also remember the SARGE is all about tough LOVE - I hope no one will take offense to his tatics or foul mouth.

On a personal note- being away for the last 3 weeks from my LBT family was tough & you were all missed! Glad to be back & lose weigt together with you all!

BOOOOOYAAAAH!

Welcome back Sarge!

I have been waiting to get back to Boot Camp! I went to my Dr. yesterday. Scheduled third fill for April 21. Today's weight is 310 :scared:

that is up three pounds:eek: Crappers!!!!! food choices have been slacking and having trouble getting my Water in! Here is my personal commitment

1. I will drink my 84+ oz of Water daily!

2. I will consume 80+ g of Protein daily!

3. I will consume 1000 calories each day!

4. I will do my Isometric exercises daily!

5. I will use my weights on Monday, Wednesday and Friday!

6. I will walk on the treadmill Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday!

7. I will keep my Journal neat and complete!

8. I will shoot for a 2lb - 2inch loss per week!

As seen on the local news yesterday " Thin people fidgit and move more than overweight people. Thin people burn an additional 350 - 450 calories daily over overweight people."

I have adopted the word movement as my mantra for this Boot Camp!

Park further, take the stairs, carry in the groceries by myself and not wait for kids to help, hold my stomach in while driving and sitting, every 30 min I will get up from my desk and stretch! Anything I can do to keep active during normal activities!

I WILL DO THIS! I WILL WEAR A BATHING SUIT THIS SUMMER. I WILL CHANGE MY LIFE AND BE A HAPPIER & HEALTHIER ME!

I have lost 55lbs so far, I can sit in the white plastic patio chairs without hurting my hip fat! My seatbelt fits without pinching my fat in the clip. I can put my socks on without getting out of breath, and many more little things.

Lord, I count my blessings and ask for help bring more my way! Good Luck to all my fellow Boot Campers! I ask for encouragment and promise to support the Platoon.

Animal House quote to live by!!!

Bluto: Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!

Otter: Germans?

Boon: Forget it, he's rolling.

Bluto: And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough...

[thinks hard]

Bluto: the tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go!

[runs out, alone; then returns]

Bluto: What the fuck happened to the Delta I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? "Ooh, we're afraid to go with you Bluto, we might get in trouble." Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Wormer, he's a dead man! Marmalard, dead! Niedermeyer...

Otter: Dead! Bluto's right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part.

Bluto: We're just the guys to do it.

D-Day: Let's do it.

Bluto: LET'S DO IT!

Lets go

80-100 g Protein a day

no more than 1100 cal/day

You are all so good with the symbols...sorry don't have a clue how to use them. I was banded in June 05 in Mexico and first fill 1.7 in August. I've been a turtle but since getting the notion that is mattered that I not drink with food, inc Water and inc exercise I'm actually loosing again. 208#'s before surgery 173 today. Afraid to get another fill - way to much trouble with tolerating solids. Settled down now but don't want to mess with a good thing. I'm on board Sarge!

      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.
