I love Wednesdays so today I tiptoed up to the scale a bit nervous I still have been lacking sleep though the last two nights have bee good, and I have been doing a lot of yard work and I am very sore and a bit puffy so I was worried about possibly gaining or stalling out. I mean I know stalls happen and that the loss slows but I don't think I am ready for that you know what I mean.

Any who I jump on the scale hope for the best and bam 1.7 pounds down ladies and gentlemen I will take that, I will take that straight to the bank!!! so thankful now if my hair would just stop falling out.

oh man do I feel you on that lol the amount of hair falling out is INSANE. I've been back in the habit of taking super high strength Biotin (10,000 mg pill a day) to try and help lessen the blow, as well as help my splitting finger nails. I know my overall Vitamin levels are good (labs were stellar), so it's just the usual 3mo+ Hair loss issue. Ugh, hair EVERYWHERE lol

Bet you thought I was going to miss weigh in Wednesday haha not a chance but my morning ran away with itself so here I am sipping a Protein Shake and doing a little reflecting. My 6 months was 3 days ago I can hardly believe it and here I am today 105.4 pounds smaller not only that I am just a little bit away from Onderland. I have a Dr's apt next Wednesday and we will go over all my labs fingers crossed that everything is at the right levels, I have some questions for the Dr. and some worries about starting the next portion of the diet as well. This is such a crazy experience.

So I missed weigh in Wednesday so this is tracking Thursday :O) As of yesterday I made it to onederland!!!!! That is right I am 199.8 I could dance dance dance!! Went to the doctor yesterday and they readjusted my weight so now I am looking at moving down to 172 I am ok with that the sad news was they didn't add in vegies so I am still 100% Protein and they want me to increase my daily intake to 75mg instead of 60 I have to admit this is going to be tough but hey one bite at a time

      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.
