HP, I know how difficult it is but try not to stress out about the weight loss, it will be there.

I was shocked myself when I puked for twelve hours then spent three days on not much more than an IV only to get on the scale and see ZERO!?! change!

HP, hang in there. It is so hot down here that I have had to cut both of my workouts short this week due to massive dehydration. Keep in mind a gallon of Water = 8 pounds so if your body is holding more water in order to cope with the higher temps, you're only looking at an extra half gallon to equal the 4 pounds. There are other factors muscle building etc.

At the same time I don't think there are many people here who are satisfied with these justifications, at least I am not completely. I try my best to focus on size lost how I feel ... it is just very difficult.

My weight shot up 11 pounds as of Sunday night! I started jogging again because I could not take watching those numbers going up, as of today I have knocked 6 of them back off. I guess I am one of those people that just has to excercise on a regular basis.

JC, we will all be there in our thoughts with you. Let us know as soon as you possibly can what is going on. I think that you are so awesome and have come so far that no matter what the outcome is, you will be just fine. I love the cooler bike too. I wonder if he is selling ice cream out of them.

HP, yes, do we ever need help!! Especially if JC here thinks he is a 13 yo!!!! My son, who is 19, just moved out of our house in at the end of April. He and his GF were living in our basement and they moved out into their own apartment. I am glad that they are out and on their own. I don't see him very often, but once in awhile I get too. He joined the pipe fitters union and is becoming a plumber. He makes more money than most of the kids around here at his age. He just got his insurance so I am sure that he and his gf will be getting married soon.

My 13 yo had a great swimming party with one friend and multiple cousins and aunts and uncles. I took 12 cupcakes just for the kids. I didn't want to have a huge cake to deal with. I didn't have one!!! I was soooo proud of myself. I came home and had yogurt and graham crackers instead. I ended up wearing my swimsuit that is tooooo big now on the top. I wasn't going to even go swimming, but I decided to do it. I am glad I did. I just wore shorts and my suit and then had a sports bra and tshirt that I was going to wear too, but ended up just in my suit and shorts. I didn't get in any formal swimming but did play some basketball and moved around a lot, so I think that I will count that as some exercise.

My SIL said to me as I was eating an "lettuce wrap" sandwich from Jimmy Johns, "you will have to teach me how to eat so I can get skinny like you".

I just got my bike to a shop to get it assembled and the shoes with the spikes and it will be done friday. The bike shop told me to practice twisting my foot to relaese the spike before I ride because when you stop you will fall over, What the --- I am attached to bike and you have to move your foot sideways to realease youre foot form the bike? does that sound right I FOR SURE DOINT HAVE A CLUE. This is all new for me. I guess better not wreck right away till I figure it out uh! Maybe i got the wrong bike to start out hell I'll give a shot anyway. JC ANY POINTERS WOULD BE GREATLY APPREICATED OR ANYONE ELSE WITH KNOWLEDGE ON THIS BIKING THNAKS IN ADVACNED FOR YOUR RESPONSE.

      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.
