Unfortunately I will be unable to complete this challenge as I was admitted to the hospital earlier this week with a medical emergency. I was bleeding internally and lost half of my blood supply due to an ectopic pregnancy that I was unaware of that ultimately ruptured my fallopian tube. I'm devastated as this is not the first time this has happened to me and now I am left with no tubes at all and can no longer have anymore children. I am blessed to have my daughter but it looks like she will be my one and only. It hurts because I had wanted to get myself healthy enough to be able to give her a sibling and now those dreams are crushed.

I'm out of this challenge as the IV fluids have caused me to gain a bunch of weight. I know it's not weight from fat and its only Water retention and it will go away. I'm hoping to be able to participate and complete the next challenge.

Oh no! That's traumatic. .I'm so sorry for your loss. My last pregnancy I was told it was possibly ectopic, so for 2 weeks I couldn't do a thing except check my temp every few hours. I managed to hold onto that baby until 32 weeks. She is now a healthy 5 year old starting kindergarten on Tuesday.

While the loss of both tubes can never be diminished, maybe this was part of a bigger plan for you.

Get yourself well honey. There will always be more challenges to join in once your healed up and ready for it!

Ree: I am so sorry for your loss. I hope you have plenty of loving support.

My final check-in for the Labor Day challenge is a head-scratcher: 155 lbs. How does one lose 8 lbs in one week? I must have been retaining Water like crazy. If this isn't a temporary anomaly, I have exceeded my goal for today by 8 lbs!

      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.
