Welcome. Where are you tracking your food and calories? If you are on MyFitnessPal, you can FRIEND me and see my food diary. MyFitnessPal tends to have most foods out there and is very convenient.

Edited because I changed the name. Seemed less confusing that way

We are friends, but you have to change your settings --> diary settings -- diary privacy (or something like that) to make your food diary visible to friends.

@ thisfathasgot2g0, (cute name!)

Thanks, I have just added you as a friend, and started logging my food.

@retrieverguyThanks for the feedback, wish I wasn't hungry like you

Welcome Catherine! I was Oct 5th too. So glad you're finally able to post! Looking forward to getting to know you better.

I track my food on my fitness pal, bit more for Protein goals right now. My doc said stay under 1000 for weight loss at my size, so I try to stay under 800 personally. I find its hard to get much more than that in though. Been feeling more restrictions lately on soft foods. Funny when I am full now I hiccup and my nose starts to run. Makes me giggle a little. It's so different.

Chrys129, thanks for the info, I will add you as a friend on my fitness pal. Are you hungry often?

So today I hit the point where I officially have less than 100 lbs to lose. 99.2 to goal!

High weight 261

Surgery consult weight 254

Surgery weight 240

Current weight 228.2

It's still unbelievable to me that it's really happening.

Hey guys! I was Oct 7. You don't happen to have a Facebook support group or anything do you? I would love to be in touch with others who are on the same step of the journey as me!

Shakti, try to identify if it is tummy hunger or head hunger. I keep busy so I do not think of food. Don't know what you do for exercise.

Probably a combination of both, though as I enter week 4 I am finally feeling the restriction aspect. I am not exercising yet but I know I need to start. I have 1 'bad' knee.

I used to enjoy swimming - does anyone else swim and find it an effective calorie/fat burner?

You are doing so good! Keep up the great attitude and hard work!

It took about 2 days once it was in their systems, however my Drs. office sent it certified returned receipt and they actually received it 2 weeks prior to that.

The only required a letter of "medical neccesity" from the Drs. office.

I kept calling Humana but they will NOT tell you anything over the phone. It wasn't until I received a letter in the mail, my Drs. office received one as well.

Humana Rocks!!!

mary, I have no clue how surgery turned into algebra..lol
