Christmas - New Year Challenge



Recommended Posts

Ugh! I gained this week, 210.5, only a pound but I like when the scale goes the other way. Time to get back on track and get my whole family healthier. Definitely in for the Valentines challenge and I would love to be under 200 by then.

Still at 193.6 this week. Didn't hit my goal, but I'm ok with that. I allowed myself some slack time during the holidays and very much enjoyed it.

Starting weight (this challenge) 234

CW 220

Highest weight before surgery 248.

Goal was 210, but I knew that was petty lofty. I'm 6 1/2 weeks out, so I can't snub my nose at a 28 pound weight loss. Any other year I would be 5-10 pounds heavier after the holidays. Looking forward to continued weight loss in new year.

Hi all! Sorry I didn't check in yesterday. I didn't make my goal...I'm at 206. The upside is the fact that I didn't gain weight over the holidays! That is a first for me.

Forgot to check in. I'm 163. Didn't make my goal of 160 before the New Year but I also didn't gain over the holidays. Actually lost a couple pounds! That's never happened before ☺️

      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.
