I've been struggling a bit in that I've reached that point where the sleeve has really done it's part and now it's time for me to need to WORK for the losses. I've been a whole month with no appreciable changes, just fluctuations of 3 lbs up and down the scale. Then I pulled out two photos taken a year apart and realize that I've come a long way already. I have nothing to be discouraged about and realize that this last 25 lbs. is just going to take some patience, planning, and persistence.

Here's the photos:

I wasn't home on Friday morning. This morning I weighed in at 185.1 -- first week that I am up! I am pretty sure most is Water weight due to my visit to Vegas and a bit of indulgence.

I'm traveling this week to Europe for work, so I will probably continue to retain water, but am hoping to be back at 182 by the end of next weekend!

You look absolutely beautiful! This is my first challenge I've done. Been afraid of not making goal but this time I felt I needed some motivation to break this stall. Thanks for all the time you take to do these challenges. Goal met or not, I'm in!

I have been camping at our county fair all week and didn't make to a scale to weigh in...darn it! I will report next week. I have been getting plenty of exercise, but tried a few fair foods, as well. Sure hope I didn't overdo the food and underdo the exercise! Have a great week, everyone!!

      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.
