Here we go....

VSG, 4/27/18, still losing

HW: 377

SW: 303

*Accepting that self love writing challenge and jump rope challenge.

Gonna pass on the junk food challenge, between Super bowl, son's b-day, and Valentines too many "cheat" days to keep it honest. Plus you can pry my Protein Cookies from my cold dead hands @GreenTealael!

Infoο»Ώ neeο»Ώded: Surgery status, losing/maintaining, weight, goal (challenge specific)

Basic rules: No junk fooο»Ώds (listed πŸ˜“) because you're worth the very best

Start February 1st -Starting weight

Gastric bypass: Surgery date 12/2/17....still losing....slowly losing ;)

February start weight: 194 pounds

Challenge goal: 189 pounds

Accepting no junk food challenge. For exercise portion, my goals will be more centered on increasing my number of days going to the gym which I have really slacked off on the last few weeks.

I realize the weight goal will be super tough to hit for me at this point, but I’m ok with that! I’m fighting every pound at this stage and if I only lose two or three pounds that’s ok.

Cant wait to see everyone else’s posts and progress, especially fresh post ops who usually have such rapid results!

Lets do this!

Hi everyone! Well, I'm starting this February off at 181.2! I lost 2.2 pounds overnight! So with that in mind... I'm hoping to see the 160's by March! I aimed low last month so I'm aiming high this month! I have 3 work out challenges, I included the first 2 weeks of each for now, I'll cross off 2 tomorrow in case anyone wants to use it. It's a core work out, an ab workout, and a full body work out. I'm going to strive to hit these all each day, one at a time, 7 min at a time, and hopefully still get my run in 3 days a week! I'm ready to spring into February and hit milestones! I want to feel proud that I busted my butt before Hawaii so I wont fell too bad when I slack off for a week! 20190201_061739.jpeg 20190201_070221.jpeg

Missed this, so this is a must--grumble, grumble. Ugh, guess I will need to be all kinds of perfect to make up for my cake bite on son's b-day. Goodbye valentine candy, farewell superbowl... *sob* :''(

Day 1...

RNY Feb 20, 2018; still losing VERRRRY slowly...
Feb 1st weight: 147.2 lbs

Feb Challenge Goals:
a) Complete No Junk food Challenge
b) Partially Complete Exercise Challenge
d) Partially Complete the Public Self-Love Challenge (I'm gonna half ass this as usual. :) Good luck with getting facial recognition on me. I don't intend to give you that many target points. ;) ha! As if! Take that Google and FB!)

Feb Weight Goals:
1) 144lbs : this will move me out of the "overweight" BMI range and into healthy. I was there for a hot minute one day (after a huge poop. So here's hoping to see that again!
2) 140 lbs : this will take me all the way to Goal #2. I haven't been 140lbs since I was 18 years old. (I wore a size 6 and thought I was so fat...*sigh*)

I'll kick it off!!!

SW:152

Goal: exercise a little more

I chose to jump rope today. Surprisingly easy, I'm sure it will change very soon lol.

I'm a Hebrew, tea loving, photo taking, content creating, intermittent fasting, SciFi craving, bespoke wardrobe enthusiast, minimalist Mum. So much more to me but, brevity.

I had VSG Nov 2017 to combat a serious medical issue that remains unresolved, womp womp. Still totally worth it.

Selfie alert!!!

      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.
