Thank you dorrie and everyone else for the encouraging words through this challenge. I feel so blessed to have all of you in my life and on this journey with me.

It is Saturday the day before Easter I have been working my butt off getting things ready for the family bbq tomorrow (20 people) I love gatherings and seeing the family all together.

I stepped on the scale this morning and almost fell of it when it read 260.4lbs, so thrilled it finally moved. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Easter to all and my your day be filled with love, joy and happiness.

Happy Easter, everyone! I missed my goal by 1.8 pounds. Not too far off goal. I'm still happy. I have appreciated having this challenge and all of you to report in with each week. Thanks for being with me on this journey. Hope you all have a wonderful Easter today.

I surpassed my goal by one pound. I hate that the weight loss has slowed down so drastically but at least I'm still going down. Besides, my skin seems to be keeping up with me for the most part and I don't have a ton of loose skin everywhere, just a little here and there. I'll take the slow pace if it means not needing plastic surgery once I reach goal. I just hope it stays that way and I don't wake up one day with droopy skin all over!

Well girls, we have reached the end of this challenge. My goal was to lose 12.8 pounds and I weighed in today at 155.3. I am so close! I lost 11.5 pounds in this challenge and so I am happy about it. I have yet to make a challenge but I get closer each time. I had fun with it and it kept me motivated so I am glad we did it. Congratulations to everyone who reached or surpassed their goals or came close! Close does count in horseshoes, handgranades and weight loss challenges.

I am making another challenge starting tomorrow. It will end Memorial Day. That gives us about 7 weeks (like last time). I am going to set my goal to losing 10 pounds this time and maybee I will hit it. That will be 145 and I will be considered a normal weight. Who's with me??? I will be starting that thread today. We did a great job!

I'm with Dorrie - "Bring it on!" I'm just 2 pounds from my final goal, but I want to lose a little more than that because I'd like to have a little buffer while working out the maintenance phase of things. I'll probably try to lose 5 pounds between now and Memorial Day. Not much, I know, but it's really slow going these days... These challenges help keep me motivated.

      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.
