Down to 156 today 1 more pound til I can say I've lost 50 pounds!

I can't wait to say I weigh 156. The smaller you are, the harder it is to lose. 1 lb for you, is probably the equivalent of 3 lbs for someone else. Great job!

The scale read 236 this morning. 10lbs in 2 weeks. Once again I'm not sure how accurate this is since the last few days I really haven't gotten anywhere near my Water requirements so I'm gonna add 4lbs to it and say I'm dehydrated by 1/2gal. That would be a more reasonable 3lb per week. W00T W0000000T!!!!!

YEEEEEE HAWWWW!!!!!! scale today reads 229! I'm still way below my Water intake so I'm gonna add 1/2 gal of water weight to the scale again. So I'm reporting 233. Holy Cow, I've lost 7 pounds this week! This is unreal.

Side Note: the reason I'm not getting my water like I should is because about 2 weeks ago I had a severe Gout attack then strained the achillles tendon in my other foot, while trying to get home I managed to strain a muscle in the Gout foot too.

So I've been stuck on the couch for 2 weeks having to crawl to the bathroom. So I guess you can see why drinking a lot of water has not been very appealing.

Man, you've had a rough few weeks. My husband suffers from bouts of gout and I know how painful it is for him. Sorry you've had to endure all of that, but it sounds like you are not letting it get you down (figuratively speaking). Congrats and I hope you begin feeling better soon.

Weighed in at 217.5 this morning, a 2 lb gain, but again I was expecting this from a lot of Water loss last week. Fully hydrated now and expect a loss next week. Great job to everyone this week! Sounds like a lot of weight lost this week! Nice!! :)

      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.
