Maybe more vigorous exercise? How are you feeling, Dori? Is exercise even a possibility with your surgery? I can swim or walk gently, that's about it. I know it would help me lose.

Can walk and that's all. Still on no bending or twisting restrictions. With the weather I haven't been doing anything. I do my walk away the pounds Dvd some days but I want to get outside and go! I KNOW that would help the stall! ;)

I need help getting back on track. Since my niece died, I'm either eating all the time or nit eating at all..had two sessions with cake. I'm tracking what I eat today, it's a start. I now weigh 177... 120 lbs down, and my skin us sooo disgusting. I have no ass( never did), but it's just wrinkly skin. Can't see my belly button. Boobs down to my knees. Feeling like I don't want anyone to see me, especially not my husband. I guess I needed to vent.

Hugs!! Love u!!

Ok so here is my update. I had told u guys we were moving and getting sent from FL to CO. Ok so we sold our house but weren't set to leave til Jan cause that's when the military was sending us. We spent 6 weeks in a tiny rental condo as we sold our house and had to get out and we spent the holidays between family. We left FL about 2 weeks ago and went to see my family and came to KY to see his kids and take em on a ski trip. Tomorrow we leave and head to CO. It's been totally exhausting for the last 2 months and although we weren't truly homeless we were transients and I can't wait til we find a house in CO and I can have the movers deliver all of our things! I want my bed!! Right now I think I'm struggling with a bit of depression from all that's been going on and the reality of the life change. I've not checked my weight on the scales in awhile so no idea how I am weight wise even tho I feel I might be ok. I'm usually kinda upbeat but I'm struggling. I'm going bald! I have my bald patch I try to hide and I'm down to about a 1/3 of my hair. Over all I think it's all gonna be ok. Gotta get settled and the stress outta life and find a new job when we get into where ever we will live. I did my challenge of skiing and I can say I hated it. Learned a lot about a lot also!

Hope y'all are doing well. Love u guys all!!

My 8 month was on the 21st. Still at 132lbs total lost. Stuck at 208 for a long time now. Have been also having some back and leg pain again lately which doesn't help. Am laying around more. Can't wait to feel at least 80% and for the weather to get better so I can get out and walk! Hope everyone is doing well!! Hugs!

      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.
