Hello all...... this is my first post ever. I started this journey with so much fuel and raring to go. Somewhere down the line in the beginning life changed for me as for many of you (life events) and I lost my way.

What are some things that you have done to get back on track?

I have lost my MOJO, motivation, you name it! I feel as though I will never get these last 50 to 65 off. I know that I have failed, but somehow I feel like it's too late. I will say that I know where a lot of my empty calories come from (alcohol) so I know that is the FIRST thing to go- which I never should have started again, hence my recent life changes.

Please only constructive criticism..... I have beat myself up enough.

Thank you in advance!

You know where to start to get back on track, your health is more important than anything else, alcohol only makes things worst, you did it at the beginning of this journey and you can do it again, stay strong and focused, whatever happenes in your life wont get back to the way it was by drinking, its only 50 lbs to go you can do it

You can and WILL Do this!! First, drop the alcohol. Maybe go back to the very 1st part of your journey: Protein drinks, counting and writing down everything that you put into your mouth. Move more and keep coming on here for some support from like minded peeps!! We are all here to help you. You know what to do because you have already proved that!! Welcome

Have you tried to start over with just liquid Protein for a few days? People post about it. Try putting " reset diet" into the "search" feature.

      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.
