If you don't already, track everything you eat in myfitnesspal to make sure you are in a caloric deficit. Weigh or measure your portions so you are positive about what you are taking in and not guesstimating. Good luck!

cut out the junk foods and high carbs

@@meginsf

sorry you fell off the wagon (didn't break any bones did you LOL)

can happen to anyone

you are on the right track getting rid of nasty carbs and junk food

agree with @@Bufflehead - track and weigh food

you had 2 pregnancies while you were losing weight

you lost weight after the 2nd was born!!!!

those kids must give you so much happiness

you probably get lots of exercise running around after those 2 cuties

if you are able - get out of the house to a gym, the YWCA

it'll get you out amongst real adult people (no one that drools LOL)

treadmill, eliptical etc - great cardio

if you are willing and able, how about having shakes for a few days

only liquids - you'll get a jump start in taking off a few lbs quickly

will make you feel better

you lost 120 lbs!! :rolleyes:

that's wonderful!!!

50 lbs to take off again

take it on!!!

know you can do !!!!!!

you lost the weight before

why would today be different

you know the rules

drink Water until it goes to your eye lids!!!

never drink while you are eating

don't eat for 30 minutes after you drink

don't drink for 30-60 minutes after you eat

lots of Protein, limited carbs

just a few examples

the weight MUST/will come off

don't get upset if it takes a while to lose lbs

stalls etc do happen

this is a marathon not a sprint

on your mark, get set, goooooo

no finish line in sight

this is a never ending new lifestyle

good luck bud

i know you will be successful again

      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.
