Weightloss Challenge



Recommended Posts

I am up this week. I worked late nights most of this week and ate junk instead of healthy choices. I am at 324. I will have to buckle down this week.

I don't suppose anyone would think a weight gain challenge would be very funny? Cause that's one I know I could win.

Love the new avatar, DeLarla! I am on a chocolate tear today, and I'm starting a week of steroids, so I might take you up on the weight-gain challenge this coming week. My ass is bigger than yours, nyah-nyah!

Thank you, Zoe, but do I accept your weight gain challenge even though you have the steroid advantage? Sometimes ya just gotta laugh!

I would appreciate if we could keep this thread from being hijacked to a "weight gain challenge". This thread is for weight loss and those who are serious about the challenge

I'm sure all of those in this challenge will agree.

Thanks!

Oops, is Michelle a moderator now, and did the new guidelines that were just initiated (the ones that say moderators can't dictate what we write) already change? Since when is a little humor considered a thread hijack? Every thread goes off topic, so why is this one suddenly being addressed, and why wasn't it addressed earlier during the "sciatica" hijack? It's called humor, some of us are having a hard time losing weight and if we don't laugh we'll cry. I want to lose weight just like everyone else. I'm back. Ease up.

Back on track ... =) I'm coding a way for you all to update your own weights on the "Weight Loss Challenege" website. Bear with me for a couple of days and it'll be up and updated.

Oh, and I'm up 2 lbs. I got a 1 cc fill on Thursday, but as of yet, it's worthless.

The whole weightloss challenge has me baffled right now. I thought getting the band would remove the need to challenge myself or anyone else, but without the ability to get a fill, it's just me and Willpower right now. And Willpower is for the most part, non-existent. What's everyone doing different now (for this challenge) to lose? I was enjoying too many cocktails but cut back and only had one this weekend. Next weekend I'm going for zero. I wasn't a big drinker before the band (well, back in my 20s I partied too much.) For me it's a deep rooted sugar addiction. Booze quenches that need, so when I'm not having drinks I'm craving soda. Go figure, I started drinking after getting the band but quit soda. Now I'm quitting booze and drinking soda. Sugar is gonna kill me one way or another.

Lisa,

for so long I wondered the same thing. I didnt even like to 'visit' here b/c everyone was losing, and I wasnt - so it depressed me.

This second fill has done it for me... once you get a fill, things will be different (you know this already).

How much longer will it be before you get that shiny new port (along with a fill)?

      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.
