Please include me. I will need the motivation. The first weigh-in is just three days before Epiphany and the beginning of a season filled with lots of parties and eating and drinking — the very first being on King's Day. Hopefully, this challenge will give me the willpower to not have a piece of king cake every single day during Carnival — maybe I can limit it to a tiny bite on Fridays.

Thanks for setting these up! I missed the last challenge and I'm really looking forward to this one.

@Whodatgirl, I didn't think about your login name until I read this post and then I knew we had a Cajun in da house! I grew up in SE Texas just close enough to the border that we sure did get some good food. Next vacation is going to be NOLA in a few months (after your craziness with Carnival is over). That will be a bigger challenge for me than Thanksgiving and Christmas combined! Best of luck on the challenge! Hang in there!

      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.
