173 this week. I gained two pounds after eating Christmas treats for two days. Overall I am pleased with just the two pounds gained. Before holiday eating would have completely derailed any healthy eating/diet plan and I would have continued to eat unhealthy and gain even more weight. Now after my weight loss surgery I know I can start today fresh and go back to my low carb high Protein diet easily. I love my sleeve. Hoping next Friday I will have dropped these two pounds and will have lost another two.

Officially in Onederland! Yay! I couldn't believe it when I got on the scale this morning considering I didn't eat perfect this week but I'll take it! Merry Christmas and I hope your grandson is doing better Susan!

My scale is broken!!! I got on it this morning and it said 140. Oh but I am doing the happy dance ????????. I was so afraid to get on it because I just knew it had gone up from all of the snacking I did for the Holidays (although I didn't eat any goodies on Xmas, strange). I made my holiday goal! Yay me, Yay me! Now I have to work on keeping the scale going downward. Still need to get to 130 to reach my surgeon's goal. Then maybe even 125.

Happy Friday everyone. And I wish you all a Happy New Year!

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas!

I will be updating the spread sheet on Sunday night. Had to travel to Michigan because my grandson was in the hospital. He came home today.

Sending prayers and hugs for your grandson.

Met my goal for this challenge this morning. 269.4 I was hoping for quicker losses, but as long as the scale is moving in the right direction, I will take it. Merry Christmas 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.
