There are officially 55 days left of summer... 7 weeks and 5 days until Labor Day... How much weight will "fall" off you before we fall into Autumn?

Pre Surgery Weight: 264lbs

DOS Weight (12.12.2012): 254lbs

Weight Today (07.09.2013): 181.8lbs

Goal Weight for Labor Day: 170lbs

By September 2nd I want to lose 11.8lbs.... I am hoping I am able to do this... Initially I wanted to challenge myself to be at 165lbs by my birthday which is Sept 5th... But I don't think I will make that and my birthday isn't really a national Holiday that everyone here can join me in the countdown till' date=' so I figured we could do this Labor Day Challenge and cheer each other on![/quote']

Congrat. To you!

Pre Surgery Weight: 264lbs

DOS Weight (12.12.2012): 254lbs

Week 1 Weight (07.09.2013): 181.8lbs

Week 7 Weight (08.26.2013): 171.8 lbs

Goal Weight for Labor Day: 170lbs...

Total Challenge weight lost: -10lbs...

Pounds left to go: 1.8lbs!

I don't know if I will lose the last 1.8lbs I have left to get to goal but eh! It is what it is! I lost 10lbs throughout this challenge and I am honestly happy with that! The weight is starting to come off really slowly for me but I am only 7.8lbs away from my goal weight and I weigh about 20lbs less now then I did when I graduated high school over 10 years ago!! My birthday is Sept 5 and I am going to hope to break out of the 170s by then, if it happens it happens if not that's ok! I plan to enjoy both Labor Day and my Birthday weekend and not worry too too much about getting to goal!

Don't think I'll make 170 by Monday. Unless I fast like crazy.... Yeah no thanks.

But stall broke and I'm down 1/2lb this week so I'll take it.

Maybe I can make it to 173.....

      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.
