Good Morning Everyone!! I don't know if there are any other 4th of July Challenge's started yet but a VST friend asked me to start a challenge and I figured this was a good one, especially since the 4th is a Thursday and that's the day I weight in each week.

My challenge's are a little different, instead of logging your loss (or gain) here each week click the link and log in each week. You can also let us know here how your doing. I've done a few of these and they have been a lot of fun! I look forward to seeing everyone's progress.

I set my goal to 25 - very aggressive considering i have been averaging 4.5 lbs per month, BUT I am pushing myself more and working out more - I want to see 100lbs (with this surgery, I'm a revison now down 116 in full total) and I can't wait to see 199 on the scale!! (which is what 24lbs would be!) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjyfO8-OrcmCdGYzMXlsVnc4ZTVJYzQ1dFZLelpqcFE&usp=sharing

      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.
