Yay Christmas challenge people :confused: I had so much fun making my choo choo ticker. Santa's train ;) I want to share a goal sheet for you to make at home as a motivation tool, if you would like to. It would look something like this....

Goal: to lose 24lbs by Christmas

step1: drink lots of Water

step 2: eat three small meals each day and one planned snack

step3: eat my protien first

step 4: don't drink with my meals

step 5: go for a walk each day

current situation: 299lbs

You can have more or fewer steps depending on your needs and what your weight loss struggles are. You can do weekly goal sheets where the goal is to excersise for 30 minutes each day and the steps to help you achieve that goal. This is a tool I learned a recently and when used can be very effective.

Libra,

Sorry, have not been on for a few days(busy working, doing the mom thang) but I'm in for the Christmas Challenge. I can lose 23lbs by Christmas. I'm gonna get the hell outta these 3's and retire my already falling off black size 32W jeans I got for Christmas last year. Its gonna be a fight (I still have little restriction), my gift to me may be my second fill in a few weeks.

Libra,

I was off the boards for a few days, so please forgive me for the delay.

CONGRATULATIONS ON REACHING TWOTERVILLE...

...and blowing through the 290s!!!

:P:not_ripe::confused::not_ripe::confused::not_ripe::confused:

Unfortunately, the dancing bananas drank all the Margarita Isopure (hence why they're green).

Woohoo, Libra!

I was banded on July 20, 2006, on that day I weighed 347. My highest weight was 380! I am now 320 and CANNOT wait to put hte 300s behind me.

My goal is to have a big party with my family and friends. I think we will have a fall bonfire, sing songs, look at the stars. I think I will consume one adult beverage as a treat.

We can do this!

:P

Well, we've started a new month. How about a check-in for our challenge? Perhaps the easiest thing to do would be to start a "to go" column. For example, right now I still have 28lbs "to go". I have taken off our "current weight" column because who wants to keep reliving those numbers? Not me!! That's history. Let's focus on where we're going!

So, lay it on me!

      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.
