Okay - I took a reality pill this morning and adjusted my goal down from 20 to 12. I would really like to get my average back to 10 pounds per month but realize I probably shouldn't try to do it all in one month.

I hope you all have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving.

I am hoping I can do this. Things have been really slow lately, so I am not going for too high a number. Got to be realistic.

I hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I was able to limit myself to one small plate of food - which was so good BTW. Stayed away from the bread and only had one very small piece of pumpkin cheesecake. All in all a pretty successful day - especially compared to how much I was able to pack away last year.

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. We went to Dallas and had a great time, even though it was cold! I didn't get my weight on Thanksgiving day, so I am going to have to stick with what I was on the Tuesday before. I was so happy to see I was down 3lbs when I got home! I was able to eat some of the meal and of course a lot of the "snacks"! But it turned out okay I guess. I will leave my goal as is and hope to exceed it.

I just need to get my butt back into working out. Just got back from the doc's. Lost 7 this month with not much working out. Hopefully 10 won't be that big of a stretch!

It's really impressive to see everyone's numbers going down. You guys rock!

      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.
