I had to look back when I started, and it was June 19th

Starting weight 146.8lbs

Current Weight 144.0 lbs

Lost 2.8lbs

I had dropped down to 140.6 lbs and stayed there for a few days, but whenever I am mid-cycle, I start to bounce around A LOT!! Was down at 142.8 yesterday, up to 144 this morning. So that is where I am right now! Hopefully it will keep going down.

Everyone is doing so amazing, congratulations!

Down 7 lbs[/quote']

Okay, I'm actually having trouble figuring out my weight because I can't find my weights in the old thread and I didn't record my weight every day on MFP. I eventually started putting it in the notes daily and logging it every Sunday but didn't at first. I thought I was down eight pounds in four weeks but I think I'm down eight pounds in just under five weeks.

So best guess for me is that I started on 23 June and am down 8 pounds.

But what I'll put here now (so I can remember) is that I am currently 141 pounds and back into my maintenance window (albeit at the top end) and have six more pounds to goal.

OK, so this is a kinda rough idea... I think I started around the same time as Laura and FYE so...

Start date: 11 June 13

Start weight: 168

weight as of this morning 163 (offical weigh day is always a Saturday even though I do admit to weighing daily) is 163

so, that is a 5lb loss so far! Not to shoddy for the slowest loser in town...lol

FYE, I really hope so 'cos I am finding really easy to follow and stick with! Even if it comes off really slowly, as long as it comes off and I can see progress, I will be happy.

And, I have to say, it is working for you TOO! In fact, all of us are rocking this right now! Loves it!

I thought I was in my eighth week, but I guess I was mis-counting (I have a hell of a time tracking anything...!). So I started 10 June I believe, and I was around 72kg at the time. I'm still in the 71kg range, and have bounced all over the place (even saw a 69.something on one day), but I don't track it so I am not too sure. Let's say I've lost a kilo in seven weeks maybe. *shrug* But I like doing it, so I'm still not too fussed about the speed of losing -- and to be entirely fair, my life has been very caloric this summer, I hope the social stuff dies down for a bit at some point.

      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.
