I just started my new anti-inflammatory regimen 2 days ago, too soon to tell for results, but I am super excited. Every day now I put flaxseed in my Protein Shake, take a slew of Vitamins including B and Omega3, make a superfood probiotic green drink powder concoction, eat about 3 cups of leafy greens and colorful veggies, and eat 1 or 2 servings of sardines or tuna. Plus I'm drinking green tea even though it is DISGUSTING :/ ...

My downfall is the night nibbling, I just can't seem to stop myself, even when I know it is wrong and I feel terrible about myself and don't even want to eat, yet still find myself doing it :( All this new Fiber in my diet is also adding carbs so I can't have saltines with my sardines :( And kicking the chocolate habit is really effing difficult and not something I have achieved as of yet :/

Finally down to 145 lbs. Whew! Thought I would never get here....I've missed this thread.....glad to be back...

I will be going towards a lot of stress now, my husband's hours have been cut back now and we are working on moving to Oregon now.....It sure is hard to figure out how to buy our dream property in Oregon and trying to sell our house at the same time. We need to get our house painted and a few things fixed too. Plus the last few days I have been eating a lot of food even when now hungry but still losing a bit.... :P

Way to go,Ms Skinniness! 145 sounds great!!! I know about the moving part. Bought our dream home six years ago across from a Lake on top of a large steep hill overlooking it. We had lived I the other house THIRTY TWO YEARS!!! Can u imagine the CRAP??!! Lol.

Great to see this thread again - can't believe how old it is! At one point I gave myself a year and then I said I would stop 'beating myself up'! Nah, I am way toooo determined to do that!

Just 5-6lbs away from my surgeon's goal and I know I can do it now!

Still enjoying Curves and back at the boxing gym too - been twice and no issues. I moderate the stomach exercises since I'm only 6 1/2 mths post TT and will increase the intensity as I feel I can, but no rush.

Was measured in Curves today and in the last 5 weeks (since returning from my hols) I've lost 2 inches from my hips and over 2 inches from my waist just over an inch from under the bust! Loving that!

I also asked her opinion on getting to my personal goal of 138 and she thought it would be too low for me - said to shoot for another 7lbs and re-evaluate then! So, that is what I am going to do.

I'm also thinking that I am losing inches rather than poundage, so I will change my size goal. I am a UK 12/14 now so my new goal will be a comfortable 12 and then some 10s! Imagine that, me in a size UK 10!

BRING IT ON!

Coops! 7 pounds... You can sooo do this! You are so close! a 10 would be just FINE wouldn't it!? Inches are so much better than pounds, I know we are stuck on the scale, but how you look is where its at...(and how you feel of course!)

      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.
