My goal for tomorrow morning was 178 (my challenge was to lose 11 lbs). I just weighed in at 179 this morning.

I won't have my scale when I go to my father's house for Thanksgiving day.

....so I really won't exactly know what I will weigh tomorrow.

I don't define my success or failure by that one pound. I lost (weight) so I won!

If you are exercising muscke weighs more than fat. Take your meaurements. You probably list inches My hoal was 190 . I got down to 197 now I am 200.6. But I refuse to give up. I am determined to make my goal.

I'm in

I am 163.8 this morning. I would like to be 150lbs by Thanksgiving.

Let's do it!!

OK - I started the challenge at 163.8 and this morning I weighed an even 153.0.

I was hoping for more but this is fine for me. I am looking forward to a Christmas Challenge!!

I will post my weight tomorrow morning but I doubt I will get to 150 - the good news is that I am wearing a size 10 shirt and a size 10 pants today!!

I'm in.

Initial weight pre- surgery 255. Surgery 5/10/12.

CW 170.2

GW 157

I have no idea what rate I will lose weight as I get closer to goal - this may be far too ambitious. But I'm going to go for it!

I can't believe it - this morning I weighed in at 157 exactly. Last week I was 160.7 so it was a pretty good week for me! Two more lbs to the century club.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I am officially 152.3 this morning.

I wanted to be 150 but this will have to do - I am not upset about not reaching goal, the challenge really kept me motivated.

5 weeks ago, I joined the challenge, thinking I'd lose 15 lbs, but I lost 10 lbs. I figured due to stalling I might not make it, but it's all good. I thought I'd be at 190 lbs today but I am at 195 lbs today. It's still a loss!! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

OK for everyone that participated in the Thanksgiving day challenge! I know i didn't make it to goal! I know I set it high, so next time I will do less! I am very proud and excited to what I have accomplished so far though. So here is my check in for today the end of the challenge!

Current Weight: 159

How did everyone else do! Great job every one! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I will not be able to weigh in until Sunday morning but just being careful in the meantime. Whatever my results are I will still need to come up with a Christmas challenge.

Rock on everyone!

      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.
