Pre-op 260

Challenge start 188

Thanksgiving goal 180

Here goes nothing. I've been all over the place and not following the plan. Mentally I need this challenge to get back on track. Protein first and maybe only for a while and fluids!!! Good luck everyone.

I weighed in at 185lbs this morning. So, I finally made my Halloween goal lol! Now I'm trying to get to 180 by Thanksgiving.

I think I need to revise my goal due to the longest stall in history (ok in my history LOL). Let's say I don't gain anything before thanksgiving!

Original Weight 188

Current Weight 155.1 and holding

Goal Weight.....ok 154.1 would be nice!!!! (That takes me out of the obese category and makes me just "fat") LOL

I used to teach a class to bankers on setting goals. I would have never taught them to make such an easy (ya right) goal LMAO!

And let's add a two mile walk three times a week! That I can actually control! Oh...except DS woke up sick so today will be a challenge....grrrrr

I'll join you in your stall :P Oh wait I'm already there LOL It's my first so I am not complaining. I always want to ask when I see your name...are you from Alaska? I thought I was the lone sleever LOL

So I'm 155.1 which is just a pound and a half above the "overweight" category for my height (I'm still obese dang it). I'd like to be 145' date=' fully "overweight" but no longer obese :) I'm also spending thanksgiving with my in laws and none of them have seen me as my husband did when he met me (ok I was 110 then LOL so that's a ways away) but it would be nice to be smaller than they've ever seen me!

Let the games begin![/quote']

Yes I live in Wasilla Ak! I am at 162 was hoping for 150 by Thanksgiving however I don't see that happening right now! Darn Stalls! However I hope everyone is doing well and were not alone! Head up and charge the mountain we can do this!

      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.
