Sorry! I haven't been on the forum this week. So I started this challenge at 332 and my goal was 318. I got to 319 by June 21 which I was ecstatic about! Then my TOM came. Also, I work with a residential college-prep summer camp for teenagers during the summer. I've been eating terribly the last couple of weeks. Grazing, poor food choices, not enough Water. This week I weighed in at 323 so I didn't make my 4th goal. UGH! This is my first gain since surgery and I'm trying not to freak out. I'm going to try to make better choices this week. Congrats to everyone for a great challenge! On to the Labor Day goal....

I can't find the thread' date=' where is it? Can you have it pinned?[/quote']

I'm trying to have it pinned, but they need the URL for it and I cannot see the URL on my iPad and I can't get to a computer until Tuesday. I did a search though and found the thread with no problem. "Labor Day Challenge 2012". Don't use the quotes, just the words and you should be able to locate it. If you come across the URL, could you send it to me so I can get back to Alex sooner to pin it? Thanks!

BTW, first weigh in for the challenge is tomorrow and every Monday afterward. hope to see you in the challenge!

      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.
