So I am 9 months post op and 105lbs down with about 19 to go but have lost all motivation. My sweet tooth has gotten the best of me. I know no need to start again from square 1 and as of today started using my fitness pal. Anyone else using it? I need some friends! Nursenikki518. Thanks!

I'm only 2 weeks out so don't have any words of wisdom from experience, but maybe pull out some old pictures of yourself before you've done the amazing job you have thus far. Remind yourself why you did this in the first place and return your focus to your goal. You are so close!! Keep up the good work!

I have started using myfitnesspal again recently, but have never added friends. What does the friend feature do? Do you just share your diary? I am still pre-op, but trying to lose 5-10 pounds per my surgeon. Also hoping I can show my insurance company that I am serious about losing weight.

      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.
