That is such a great goal to look forward too! Have you anything planned for your Anniversary? This would be a good time to plan something special. Maybe a quiet get-a-way.

Once I reach 275, this will be a milestone for me because it was the weight I was when I was beginning to have my children. I remember not wanting to tell my weight to the hospital in front of my husband because I did not want him to know how overweight I was. Now, my oldest child is 14; so that is a long time.

Also, the 60lb milestone was big for me because I have never gone beyond 60lbs and maintained it and with my Band I know that I am going to pass 60lbs and keep it off. I am looking forward the 3/4 quarter century mark with a aggressive passion.

Mini goals are great for motivation aren't they. Good luck!

Cindy

Supposedly DH says he's planning something...says he has been planning since Christmas. We'll see. Past anniversaries haven't been much to look forward to as far as anything special, I'm sad to say. Last anniversary I planned because I was sick of waiting to see if he would do something to Celebrate us. I can't totally blame him - he's been married a few times before me and they weren't anything to Celebrate, so I think he was just in a rut. LOL Hopefully he got the hint from last year.

That made me a little sad about not wanting to say your weight at the hospital in front of your DH. The only reason I say that is because we can be so dang hard on ourselves and it's obvious he loves you very much if he was wanting to have babies with you. If only we could see ourselves through the eyes of love that DHs have. I'm excited for you to reach your goals!

Ok, I'm in, but no way can i keep up with your impressive double digt expectations. I'm on the slow losers thread, have no restriction and after six weeks ready to eat a house!

so if I make the six pound loss, I'll be thrilled!

It seems to me like you're doing great! You are right on track for 2 lbs per week of losing, which is medically recommended. I'm sure you'll reach that 6 lb goal! Keep up the good work!

So when do we update? My weigh in is on Monday, so I updated below. But, I am wondering if I was supposed to, or if I should wait until next week (I think this thread started mid week)?

I think we're all updating weekly? That's what I gathered. Cindy is going to start a new thread each week for us to update our totals. I was excited to update my one pound yesterday...but then I realized, how much more fun it'll be for me to report several lbs when I update it. I'm right there with you - I'd like to update mine right now! LOL I'm weighing myself everyday because Onederland is so close I can almost taste it and I can't wait to see that dang number on my scale!!! WTG on the lb!

I kind of know what you mean about our DH's. I love mine to death, he is my best friend but in the romance department he isn't that romantic. However, we are going to PA for buying trip for our stores at the end of the month and we will be gone a week without the kids. I am looking forward to some us time. Even though it will be busy, we will have quite a bit of down time so hopefully we can reconnect.

Funny thing is now he knows how much I weigh and he does love me for who I am because he married me when I was overweight. I weighed 260lbs when we met. When he proposed which was on Valentines day in 1990; I decided that I was going to lose weight for the wedding which was in October 1990. Well, I lost about 40lbs and got to 220lbs and was a size 16. It was the thinnest I had been in as long as I could remember.

Even now, I can't see myself lower than 220lbs. My goal is 175 but I am going to lose until I feel good. I will let my body dictate my final weight.

I moved my fill up to Jan 15th from the 17th. scale won't budge! I am drinking all day and having a small dinner to help things!

One bottle of Isopure CLEAR and one small glass of V-8 juice so far today. Wanted an Atkins shake but we're out. I think my husband is getting some.

If I don't get some restriction on Tues, I think I've reached the stage where I'm lucky if I stay the same weight until I reached some level of restriction, even for a short time.

UGH!

I was on shakes and fluids yesterday until 6pm then had a normal dinner. I went for a walk this morning so the scales went down 1 lb... I put on a couple during my binge eating over the holidays but it's better off than on. I will do the shakes and fluids again today and see how I go. Can't wait to get my next fill on 23rd ... :faint:

I fixed the starting weights because a few people gave their weight at the beginning of their journey and not at the beginning of the NNVDC.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
