How will be getting notifications?

If you set your account to receive notifications then you will receive them when other people post on the same thread you post on. If you have not set your account up to receive notifications then you will just need to remember to post your starting and goal weight on 2/22 and just update your weight every Monday after that until 3/28. Then we will start another challenge. If you want to join please let me know and I'll add you to the spreadsheet! [emoji4]

I am in, but I have been having issues losing, so then I get discouraged and I don't post. I have been stalled for 3 1/2 months now and I am coming up to my one year anniversary and would like to be at least 60 lbs lighter by then. Can anyone help.

the other thing is that I cannot see my surgeon or ny NUT anylonger do them not being covered by my insurance as of this year.

Right now I am at 195 lbs.

Have you tried going to a liquid diet to try and re jump start your weight loss?? I've seen lots of post on here about a re start.

Count me in, I'll post my current/goal weight on the 22nd. This will be my first challenge. For the weigh-ins do we take a pic of the scale and post the photo or just post the weight?

Just the weight is fine!

I got you on. Sorry, I try to update everything on Mondays but I work full time and have a family of 5 to care for so sometimes I may not get to it right away. I always have Thursday's off so everything will be updated by then 4 sure! [emoji4]

      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.
