Memorial Day Challenge!



Recommended Posts

I meant to include this too:

Loss over last week: 2.4

Memorial Day challenge goal: 20

Memorial Day challenge loss so far: 7

5.3 weeks left to lose 13 lbs. Good luck to everyone!

I lost another pound this week, so 8 lbs lost and 12 to go for this Memorial day challenge. I need to crack down if I'm going to make it.

Down a little more this week. Slow but still down and I had an awesome NSV this week. I was doing some much needed clothes shopping for an upcoming business trip and found a shirt I loved but no large. So, on a total whim, I tried on the medium... IT FIT!!

Yahoo! For those of you who lost this past week. Since starting this, I think my weight loss is just really slowing down. Today I was 214, so in two weeks just 1 pound..maybe? I will keep working out, increase the length of time for workout and maybe cut one snack to see if that helps. I do feel like I am hungry more often lately.

Best to all challengers for this week!

Sandy

I am so happy. I just stepped on the scale and I weigh 151 lbs. I have increased my calories up to 1000-1200 and actually lost a pound! Wowwwwwww! I was so afraid I would actually gain. I was stuck on believing that I could only eat 900 calories! Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! I will see my 140's. ;)

When I last weighed myself I was in a stall, this morning I stepped on and I've lost 6 pounds in the last 11 days. Yeah me! This is my first challenge and I really want to make this goal. 27 days to go and 14 pounds to wash away. Go team!!!

      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.
