Gone for Good Club - May 2006



Recommended Posts

I think my mind is gone for good too because I forgot to post last week (and maybe week before too). I turned 40 on May 4th and I think I've lost my mind!:)

Anyway, here are my numbers as of the next to last day in May:

C 232.5 (-42 lbs total, -1.0 this last week)

I went to the doc today and he asked me if I needed a fill. Well, I couldn't decide. I felt good about where I was but then again, I was afraid I'd get in a rut. I only lost 2 lbs. the last 3 weeks total and the doc was happy, but I guess I really wasn't. So, he adjusted somewhat but don't really know how much he put in. I hope I didn't make a bad decision. Does anyone out there think that 2 lbs. in 3 weeks is a little slow (given that I've been exercising and eating right)??

Oh, on the tanita, my fat mass dropped 13.5% from the last reading but my free form mass went up 1 lb. Doesn't that mean that I'm not losing muscle but building muscle? My BMI went down 2.1% too so I know that's good. If anyone has a clue on the free form mass thing, I'd like to hear from ya! Thanks!!:)

My life is just in too much turmoil right now.. So I'll have to pass on the challenges.. it's enough of a challenge to weigh in every week (which I havn't been doing...)

Thanks for the support Tricia! (((hugs))) It's nice to know I'm not the only one on a stupid plateau.

Of course, maybe I will bust my plateau at weigh in tomorrow. I haven't been able to eat/drink much today. I PB'ed this morning and am having trouble even drinking hot tea. :)

Well, glad everyone is doing well! AND be sure to check out TELLY in the Before & After pic thread!! The girl is HOTTTTT in a bathing suit!

Me, too! Izaksmom, does your Tanita (that's a scale, right?) measure your FFM? And I thought that stood for Fat Free Mass...not for sure, though. Yeah, I'm love to hear,too!

Oh, no change this week. Queen of Maintaining. But it is, for sure, Gone for Good!

P'Nut, you and Dawg look great. Like totally different people. You must be SO proud of your accomplishments!

P'Nut, What is the plan for the June Challenge? Are we "weighing in" today or tomorrow?

Telly, will you PLEASE push me during the June challenge (workout wise)???? I need a goal and someone to kick my butt...and I think you are just the person to do it. :confused:

      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.
