Christmas - New Year Challenge



Recommended Posts

I weighed in at 213. I lost 5.8 pounds on the challenge but didn't meet my goal of 210. I guess the closer we get to goal, everything slows. Also the holidays and all the parties. Time to get back on track!

Wow, woke up this morning to pages to read and remembered oh today is checkin day. Well I too did not make my goal, but I am at the lowest weight in 14 years. And got rid of all the christmas baggage and got back on the track to MY healthy lifestyle. I dont know about you guys but this is my first year without a resolution based around my weight! Because its just my life now, and I am ready to hit the ground running for the Big V day challenge. Thanks again Bea for giving us your gift!

Final weigh in 172.8

Goal was 167..but thats ok since surgery I have lost 81.6pounds

No change this week :(

But no change also means no increase!!

Eating habits were a struggle over the holidays but thats behind me now -- and 2014 is here.

Time to jump back on the path to a healthy lifestyle!

Congrats to everyone who met their goal-- i am impressed with u!!!

Just reading your post & it hit me that (even though I've still got a ways to go) I am at the lowest weight I've been at in 12 years.

That's a good feeling!!

Congrats to u on your progress!!!

I have to weigh myself when I get home. I weighed yesterday and was 258, but the weather was so beautiful here in Long Beach, we went for a long walk on the beach yesterday. I need to weigh again when I get home so I'll check in with a final weight tomorrow. Happy New Year!

Well I didn't make it. Goal was 159 and I am stuck at 165. So, my goal rolls over to Valentines Day. I am almost 10 mos out and the honeymoon may be over. But I am not satisfied, so I will make some changes and keep plugging along.

Happy New Year!!!

      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.
