I'm game. I'm 301 right now. I'll shoot for 30 pounds by April 13th. 10 pounds a month is totally realistic and I'm starting my exercise routine as well. I can't wait to be in the 200s!!

Sounds great!

My weight is 214.4 - I'm a new sleever so I'm not sure what is a realistic goal.

April 13th goal would be...50lbs? That would be amazing though.

I'll think on it but I'm definitely up for a challenge!

Okay, joining in...I would LOVE to lose 15 of the 21lbs I have left. I *know* it doesn't seem like much, but I'm 15 months out and the loss has been reeeeeally slow since about 8 months post-op. But I'm up for the challenge...thanks for starting the thread BD!

Just updating, I'm down -2 of the 15, so it's going slow but it's going... :)

      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.
