Wow, everyone! Hope today is a great day!

Today's weigh in is at 163.6! A 3 lb drop! :)

And to top it off, I beat my goal. Doing C25K and it's paying off!

Thank you, Play!

Also doing c25k. It's a freeing feeling. Keep up the good work!

C25k is the couch to 5k running program. It lasts eight weeks an should have you at or close to running three miles straight! Whooop

139.2!

Smashed my goal :D

I have no idea why my body suddenly kicked into high gear during this challenge,being so close to goal and after barely budging for 6 weeks, but I'll take it!

Upped my Protein more, and started running again last week so I'm thinking that has something to do with it. I'm happy either way.

      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.
