Hi everyone... I've been mia for sometime now. Hope everyone is where they want to be. Just want to share with you guys that I have been doing pretty well. I've been in maintaining mode for about 2 months now. I do go from 132 to 134. But I'm happy with this weight.

I just emailed my nut to see where I should be calorie wise and she suggest I should be from 1000-1200 cal.

How is everyone doing calorie wise?

Hi all.

I eat about 600-700 cal per day on average but I am still trying to lose weight. I have lost about 185 pounds but still want to lose about another 35.

I have hit a stall the last two weeks which I am bummed about. It is the first one I have had really.

I need to do more exercise than I am I think and mix it up. I will try that this week and see if it helps.

Hello all. Fortunately I've been maintaining but since my vacation my eating has been out of control. Haven't been on MFP in forever. I really need to get myself back on there. I am barisaxylady on there too if anyone wants to add me so we can keep each other honest. I also have a FitBit if anyone is on there and wants to add me.

      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.
