members update



Recommended Posts

We have 19 people in our group, but we don't have 19 posting.

We need to update whether everyone is actually eating the 5:2 way.

I think I have lost 11 lbs since starting. I have to weigh cause I fasted yesterday and see if I kept it off today.

I glad you brought this up daisy!

We had discussed capping the group at 20.

It would be nice to hear from everyone.

And if someone is not following the 5:2 and not posting we can free up the space for someone new?

Oh 11 pounds here too! :)

If you don't post a lot, that's fine. We just want to me sure everyone listed is eating the 5:2 way. If someone doesn't respond, Laura , can you pm them?

If you don't want to post your loss, hopefully no gains, just let us know how fasting is going for you.

I think that's a good idea, I had two new girls join last week they met all the requirements and really wanted in... But noting yet from them? I asked to have new members post in the introductions area to introduce themselves.

Hi, my name is Georgia, and I am a 5:2 enthusiast. On vacay right and I hope I still have 22 pounds lost when I get back ( or I WILL have by the end of the week I get back anyway!). Started 5:2 about June 5th I believe.

Still here, not using 5:2 on vacay, but CANT WAIT to get back to it on the 17th. I am seeing the scale go up and up... am still logging everything on MFP,and eating around 3-500 cals extra a day... so the pounds are prob at least half Water. Going to do lots of hiking in the next three days, so perhaps that will help a bit.

Weight lost before vacay- from June 11th- 11 pounds

      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.
