So I hit my 6 month mark today. I wish I was losing faster, but I have lost 1/4 of what I need to lose. It's not to bad seeing as there is no way I could have lost that all on my own. So I am posting a 6 month pic along with my original.

Marie! You're beautiful! I can see a big difference! You're looking great!! And doing very well! Happy 6 month Bandiversary!!!

I love Biggest Loser! I was so happy to see Michelle win the last season! I did NOT want that Vicki to win! She was such a game player and was only there for the money! I didn't like her! (sorry I hope others aren't offended by my comment!)

I agree with you. I didn't think Vicki was all that bad at the beginning, but then she started talking revenge. Please post the shake you had.

Sure!

Here is the Protein Drink I got at Cost Co.

"Premier Nutrition Protein - High Protein chocolate Shake"

Cal 160

fat 3grams

0 sat and trans fat

carb 5grams

Fiber 3 grams

protein 30 grams!

Hmmm, that must be the same one deboregon was mentioning. Does it come in vanilla? I'm just not a big fan of chocolate shakes.< /p>

I wonder if they make it in vanilla. Cost Co only sells the Chocolate. And I looked at the website and Chocolate was the only one they had.

My son bought some Protein Powder and he now makes it for me, comes to bed each AM and wakes me up with an 8 oz. glass.

Thanks to the support of him, I'm surely getting my breakfast!

Protein powders, especially this one which is chocolate, can almost taste like Nescles Quick.

Never happened since I had my band..but

Put me down for a loss this week of

(( drum roll ))))

8 lbs.

that's eight pounds! :(

That's one indication the prunes worked after the new medication clogged all my works up. A first and probably a last, I don't expect a loss like this on an ongoing basis but I'll take it to lift my spirits thats for sure.

Everyone have a goal achieving day today, whatever it may be.

Well put me down for a loss of 3.1#. Nothing to be ashamed of... I'm about halfway to my :)-Day goal! As an added plus I am only 3.3# away from having lost 20% of my body weight so that would be 40% of my excess weight! :(

My weigh-in for this week is -0.4.

A loss is still a loss, but I can't help but feel if I hadn't indulged last night (3 cranberry/vodkas and a Michelob Ultra :) ) that maybe I'd have stayed down 0.8 like I was on Friday. :(

I apparently did jinx myself by posting Thursday . .. as I gained about a half pound overnight and so I"m only down 1.5. Oh well. It's still a loss.

      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.
