HI, rtwisdale, it does feel so good to share such info as my weight and not feel as though i will be judged about my size. I didn't quite make the deadline, but i sure did lose and feel so good. I am now at 200lbs., I hope I lost some more this weekend and hopefully I will be in onederland when I get on the scale tomorrow at work. I have not been in the onederland since my high school years and now my daughter is going to the high school, so i definitely feel good about where i am at with my weight now. I still have about a good 50 lbs. more to go and I know with the great support on this website, I will make it and feel good about it. Thanks you guys for being such great SUPPORT. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE ON THEIR JOURNEY!!!!!!:clap2:

Hey, RTWISDALE, how are you? My goal for this month is 12 lbs., wish to be atleast 190 by Labor Day. I believe this could really be good to make a pact with someone else who has the same goal as I have. We could start this today and weigh in in exactly 4 weeks from today which will be Labor Day. If you have a different goal, let me know. Once again thank you.:clap2:

      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.
