I can't weigh in on Thanksgiving morning because we have decided to fly to Minnesota to be with my husband's family (I only count weight on my scale). But...I didn't think I was going to make my goal of 145 because I was in a two and a half week stall. Surprise' date=' I went down a pound yesterday and today....SEVEN pounds (I apparently exercise or have liposuction in my sleep LMAO). So, my final weigh in will be on Tuesday morning before we leave for the airport. But if I stay on track I just might make it!

Starting weight 185

Challenge weight start 155.6

Today's weight 146.6

Challenge weight goal 145.nothing :P

Seven pounds in a day. Wow, congrats on that

I know I already weighed in this week but just wanted to report today because I'm so so close to my Thanksgiving goal, losing 100 pounds and hitting onederland. If I can accomplish all 3 that would be awesome. I'm also excited because some 16's are too big on me now. It's strange because I remember wearing a 16 when I weighed 170 pounds years ago?? What's up with that?

I set a fairly ambitious goal of 11 lbs. To meet my challenge I need to lose 6 lbs from now till Thanksgiving, which is 9 days. I may pull off 3, but 9 is not looking possible. A stall didn't help things.

But no matter what, I've lost, which is a win.

So I posted this last week pretty much knowing that there was probably no way that I could make it to my challenge goal. But my stall broke and I've lost 4 lbs since the comment above.

That means that between today (Monday) and this Thursday, IF I drop 2 lbs I will make it! It IS possible!

No, I won't be upset if I don't. I'm very grateful and appreciative of my progress so far. Setting these goals along the way do add some interest, though.

This was my first challenge & I'm still in mega loss time - @ 3 1/2 months from surgery.

Congratulations to everyone who tried & lost, that was really the goal from the beginning.

      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.
