Valentine's Day Challenge 2013



Recommended Posts

My goal for this challenge was 170 from 185...I'm only down to 175 right now so it isn't looking like I'm going to make it by Valentine's Day. We'll see what happens in the next 6 days. Hope everyone else is doing good!

Highest weight: 232 lbs

Surgery weight: 227 lbs (8-17-12)

1.1.13 weight: 177.6 lbs

Current weight: 169lbs

Goal Weight for Valentine's Day: 160 lbs

Off my goal a bit but also have been off my eating plan so I can't have a pity party...Instead I need to refocus on goal and make it happen...On the positive I am still down another dress size...Bought my first size 8 about two weeks ago. Jeans are still a lil snug but they go on and button but I would like to get down another 10 before I wear the jeans out...but the dress and jumpsuit I bought is getting some public play time next week...

I know we still have TWO more days for this challenge to be 'over'.......but CONGRATS to those who made their personal goals, what a great accomplishment for sure!! To those of us who did not (me included), not to worry, our goals are what keep us striving and pushing forward, something to look forward to. It's not in the least bit a failure......we'll make it, slow and steady wins the race too, never forget it when you're feeling down. Thanx to all who participated in my challenge. I loved reading it all!! We all have so much to be thankful for, we are blessed!!

My goal weight for Valentine's Day was 180. I don't think I'm going to make it but on the plus side, I've finished Week 3, Day 2 of the Couch to 5K program. Good luck to everyone who's working on this challenge!

My goal was 227. I hit that this weekend! I was hoping I'd be under for the official end of the challenge so we'll see what tomorrow brings.

      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.
