Its TOM and I gained a pound. I am not changing my ticker in hopes I am back down next week. Getting this goal is really hard at the end of the journey. I have been this weight up and down for two weeks now. I sure hope I drop again soon. My personal goal and labor day goal is 135 and I sure would like to reach it and stay there!

Starting weight 180

Goal weight 175 (literally goal weight, LOL!)

Pounds to go: 5

Well, nothing like starting a challenge and then dropping out of sight. :) But here I am, and I'm down a couple of pounds, losing typically slowly here at the very end. At least it's still coming off!!

Starting weight: 180

Goal weight: 175

Current weight: 178

Strategies that seem to be working:

1. Cut back on the cheese--my cheese-a-holic nature is still present, but I have tried to stay away from it on a few days, and I think that has made a difference.

2. Eating less in general--I haven't been all that hungry. Don't know if it's the heat or what--don't really care.

3. Staying busy and moving around. Exercise is still not happening, but we've been re-doing my office and getting an apartment and our guest room cleaned out, painted, and arranged, and that's some physical labor.

Goals for the next couple of weeks:

1. Water. I am dehydrated. I need to focus on drinking even when I don't feel thirsty.

2. Greens every day. My lack of this now is just laziness on my part--I don't feel like cooking, because I'm not really all that hungry. But the nutrition benefits are worth the effort.

3. Stay busy, move around, burn calories. I'm not going to call it exercise. :)

Good luck, y'all! Love to see everybody pursuing their goals and having good success!!

      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.
