You guys we can do this!! We put ourselves through a lot to be able to lose weight. I have faith in you all....I have found faith in myself as well. I have a long journey in front of me as I am only 11 days post-op. I will have set backs and I am sure I will have moments of WTF was I thinking. Then I stop and think....my blood sugar has been normal since the surgery. I am only on 1 medication for it. Pretty soon I may be able to get off my blood pressure medicine and the more I lose the better my body is going to feel. #yougotthis. ;)

@Torriluv87 You are still going down though! I KNOW how hard it is. I fell off of tracking for a few months and thankfully I didn't gain. I decided I have this tool and I am silly not to utilize it to the fullest and went back to tracking everything last week. I also upped my exercise and am now walking 4-5 miles 4-6 times a week. It paid off as I lost 9 pounds this week! I am not going to lie to you and tell you I only eat what is on plan. I had tasticakes, I had chocolate, but I tracked it and kept my calories to around 1200. Everyone is human and we make mistakes. If you schedule in your mistakes though it won't affect you as much as if you just go haywire. Make sure you are tracking EVERYTHING even if it's not on plan. You have to make the commitment again like I did. Maybe commit to treating yourself once a week instead of everyday. I have had many opportunities to eat off plan as I babysit and we get ice cream, donuts, fast food, cupcakes...I let them get something but even though I might want to I do not get something myself. We are here for you as support but in the end we can not control what you do. The control comes from in you. I believe you can do it though. This goes for you too @chuswysly It's so hard when you get off plan but it IS possible to turn it around.

@AngieK72 I don't have you on my spreadsheet so I don't know if I missed your original post. What was your starting weight (around the 7th of April) and what is your goal weight for June 2nd?

@jla031210 Hey, we are coming to the end of the challenge but I can add you. What is your goal weight to be at by June 2nd?

@sjfink How are you doing after surgery? I'm still so nervous for my surgery June 5th!

@Newbeva How have you been doing after surgery? Also..congrats! You have beaten your goal! Did you want to adjust it for the last 2 weeks of the challenge??

@klette0147 I totally understand. It's hard not to gain weight when traveling. Most of it is Water weight usually though!

@Deactivatedfatgal and @rnymorales You are very close to reaching your challenge goal!!

      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.
