I say 10 lbs... There is really nothing to do in the hotels after work but eat, drink, watch TV, work out or swim so we expect you to be in the pool or in the gym! LOL

Yeah I will have to look into the gym. It's a mine site in Madagascar. So I'm sure there is one, I'll ask around. 10lbs will be quite a bit I think. But will be very welcome ;-)

I find I can't have my regular shakes and haven't had the time to find ones that agree with me. I will have to just make sure I get my fish and chicken in where possible. Only thing is I also cannot get my 5 to 6 meals a day. But I do my best to make sure I'm getting what my body needs. I hope that it's not too much of a bad thing.

Have you tried nectar Protein Shakes? I got my samples last week and they are not bad at all, I keep at least one packet in my purse in case of "emergency" which means being away from home, the fruit ones are good, just add Water and ice!

The scale moved a little this morning so I'm excited about that. I have to remain consistant with the water that looks like that was my problem! THANKS FOR THE TIP!!! :)

Always glad to help a fellow loser.

I used to be a water baby ( I literally dream of swimming, and drinking water), and now I find that now I have to get back into the habit..

Just keep it up, and it will fall off. I am so keen to see if I am still losing but I forgot to pack my scale :-(

      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.
