Hello Everyone!! I looked and didn't see a Valentines Day Challenge yet and since I have a goal I want to achieve by then I figured I'd start one (sorry if there is one already!!)

I love spreadsheets!! I did this with some friends last year and we had a blast!!! It's easier to see your progress and update and those of your friends with out scrolling through dozens and dozens of posts.

Just click the link and put in your VST Username, your weight in day of the week and what your goal is for this challenge. (6 weeks)

My info is in and I will update tomorrow!!!

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjyfO8-OrcmCdGYzMXlsVnc4ZTVJYzQ1dFZLelpqcFE

IF the spreadsheet isn't for you please feel free to join in below the more participants the better!!

My stats:

WI- Thursdays

Goal- 11lbs

Progress TBD 1/3/12

I look forward to seeing who plays along with this challenge!!!

Trying to add myself in but I can't for some reason on the spreadsheet. Love that idea. I already set a goal because Valentines day is also my 5 months anniversary from surgery :) I want to be at 100 pounds lost by then, right now I am at 79.8 which means I want to lose 20.2 by then :)

I just updated, I lost .6 pounds, but that was from yesterday's weight.. when we started this yesterday I didn't have my weight from last Thursday still. However .6 pounds over one day is still alright for me :) I updated the spreadsheet :)

FUN! I'm in - I had my surgery on December 6th, and I am down 20 pounds. I lost -.2 pounds between yesterday and today, and I noticed that some people entered our first Thursday weigh in, so I went ahead and logged that - tell me if I'm doing it wrong!

Thanks for doing 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.
