Ok how are you guys getting your second ticker???? I have tried 2xs and failed.

Carrot you asked what kind of goals I think whatever works for you. If getting more exercise is your thing -do it. If seeing the lbs come off works to motivate someone perfect. Its our world to shape it as we want right now. I think its a matter of choice just as long as we have something to measure results. Some people need shorter goals (like me) others like the long term. Either way your moving your losing something be it weight, inches or both.

I like the exercise ticker too but I'm more into the lbs b/c I have no choice but to move my butt every day my dogs do not walk themselves. I can't wait to get back on my Pilates machine but doc said no go until 5 weeks b/c of the stretching.

I want to be down 25 post-surgery by November 25th. I was down 13 last Monday.

I know what you mean Carrot...I live in Rain-Country. Who wants to walk in the rain today? Not me. But alas, I have to get my butt out there for an hour today and brave through the storm. I wonder if I get extra points for getting soaked?

Step 1. Make your goal ticker.

Step 2 Copy the img for the goal ticker ex: exercise.png

Step 3. Go to your signature and edit signature

Step 4 In the signature area where you can edit the text and put smilies just paste the img where you want it to go. The trick is that you can only have 10 lines. So you may have to reduce spaces.

Good luck!

Well it does make your clothes heavier which in turn makes you work harder.........

I don't have a dog anymore. She passed 3 years now. But a dog would certainly make you walk. If I didn't travel so much, I'd love another. Golden retrievers are the dogs for me!

      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.
