I got in around my goal of 5 hours this week. Still struggling with my stall between 206-209 however was thrilled to fit into a new size 14 pair of jeans! So I'd consider this week to be good, still think I'm losing inches. Also bought myself a new Pilates DVD to use in my spare time at home along with my stationary bike- we'll see how it is! Congrats to everyone for doing so well!

Hey @@Rebeccaabrooks86

How is it going this week? I have upped my workout times but missed a day so I only got in 3.75 hours this week.

I am just curious how many of us are still doing this challenge? I like having the accountability of needing to report my workouts each week, but I get that it might not be the biggest motivation for everyone.

I think about 5 people are still reporting each week. I like the motivation too. I wish we had a spreadsheet but I don't have access to the Google docs. But I hope you keep up the good work. I'm happy that everyone finds it to be motivational and supportive.

I'm still in... though i didn't quite meet my 4 hour goal. Got in 3 hours :( At the same time, I did come out of my stall and weighed in at 300.8 this am. Almost 101 lb loss since orientation - first week of August.

Great Job on getting in 4 hours!!! I just joined a walking club in my town and signed up for a bootcamp class starting Friday. Unfortunately I keep going between 206-209. I'm thinking some of its muscle though because I've been really sticking to my exercise and diet. But it stinks to see the scale not move!

      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.
