Have fun on your buying trip! Must be fun to go buy a bunch of stuff other people are going to end up buying from you!

Between the Flu and my second fill, I feel like I have lost about 10 pounds... we will see on Wednesday when I get to weigh in again. I hope it is not just my mind playing tricks on me. I truly feel like I have the beginning of good restriction... Yippy!!!:eek:

Hollyberries, are you going to the gift show in NY? I've been a few times, reason....long story! but it's a lot of walking if that's where you're going!

Able to post 1.5 pounds down, not a huge loss, but I'm happy with it! I was so conservative with my goal because I know I'm a slow loser, but the band has really helped me to stay on track. I think now I can make it to 191 by Valentine's day, and finally get to a total weight loss of 25 pounds.

Waiting to see all the amazing results you guys will post again this week.

Trixie: 16 pounds since the beginning of the Challenge? That is incredible. Notice you have a low goal weight. Are you short, like me?

I hope I have some restriction now and maybe next challenge, I can post double digits!

Thanks, Shortgal! It's been tough with no restriction, but having goals has been such a motivational kick in the butt! We really need to keep this up. When the Valentine's Day challenge has ended we need to come up with more!

I'm 5'2", how short are you?

Wow, you're tall!!! LOL

I'm only 5"0'. I dont even dream of a goal weight less than 130 and have listed my official goal as 140. Even if I could get to 130, I don't know that I could maintain it. I just don't know I want to work hard enough to get and stay there. But you seem to be working very hard, so for you it might be doable.

Have you ever weighed that as an adult? I was never lower and maintaining less than 128 ever. And I was much younger!

I had suggested another challenge. Like Valentine's Day to St Patrick's Day or to Easter.

I forgot to check in last week, but had a fill and have lost five pounds! If I could fit in the exercise it would be great. If my house gets finished and we move in this week, the exercise is on! I am determined to meet that goal!

Hey Tyman, you and Trixie have the same goal weight.

We are definitely the shorties here, at 4 feet 10 and me at 5 feet even and Trixie at 5 feet 2!

You're doing very well on weight loss. Your surgery date was close to mine, but your ahead of me on weight loss. And you haven't even been exercising??? You'll be at goal in no time, if you start.

I'm gonna give credit to, it on the fact that you're younger than me.... that's my story and I'm sticking to it!!! LOL

this fill feels closer, so far, to my first sweet spot, so maybe a few pounds will fall off a little quicker for me.

Yay! I'm hoping I can possibly lose another 7 lbs by Valentine's, but I won't kick myself if I don't.

      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.
