Down to 199! I might not make goal but breaking through to ONEderland is such a great feeling! Haven't seen that in nearly 10 years!

AWESOME! At 228 I am still chasing ONEderland and will be for a few more weeks. But I am THRILLED that you reached it this week! Way to go!!!

Today's weight = 197.4.

Down 1.2 lbs and at my Thanksgiving goal!

Just hoping to maintain through next week, as I'll be on vacation with the in-laws all week.

BIG YAY for meeting your Thanksgiving goal this week! AWESOME!

I had a 4 pound loss this week pushing me through to my Turkey Day goal today!! 190 I made it!!

This is such a great way to keep us accountable and I too love checking in to see everyone's progress! :)

Bea are you setting up a new one...... :D

Congrats on reaching your TDay goal! Awesome!

And yes, I've already set up a new one. I'll post a separate description and link here so everyone can find it. (I find this new site to be a little more challenging in easily seeing what topics are being discussed in the VSG group.)

I've gone ahead and set up a new challenge. It is set up to report in on WEDNESDAYS and begins the day before Thanksgiving and ends on New Year's Day.

Everyone is doing SO GREAT in this challenge, I can't wait to see some of the big changes that go on as we move into the new year! Hope you'll all join us!

WH 250

started at 247

Sw 236

Cw STILL 220

don't think I'm gonna make my goal of 210... but who knows what the week will bring? I'm only 4 weeks out and this early anything can happen! So while it's a little early I think I will postpone that goal to Christmas and ask Santa for new jeans :)

      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.
