Saying goodbye to 300 was awesome, especially knowing that I'll never see that number on my scale again!!! I've never felt so positive about that before! Good luck to you!!!

Congratulations Indianlight! This is wonderful that we have two champions so far and we still have the rest of December to go! Urgh...if I can stop this plateau I still might have a chance to hit my goal. I've been bouncing the same two pounds for about two weeks now. Keep your fingers crossed that I get back on the losing side soon!

Indianlight, I'd love to but I'm a little afraid it's not gonna happen. I had to have an unfill and they took too much out. They can't get me in for another fill until 12-22. But who wants to be on liquids for Christmas. So I may not be getting another fill till after the New Year. I'm really afraid of gaining it all back!

      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.
