I've "only" lost 1 pound, BUT I LOST ANOTHER 5.5 INCHES since last week. This time, there was no bonus edema inch loss!

And since I know the scale lies... Woot!

Hi Birdie - Welcome!

Yes, June 1 is the deadline! Basically - you can give yourself any goal you want.

We try to 'report' in on Monday's, but sometimes people work and need to give their reports sooner or later.

Good luck.

194 this morning. -1 for me this week.

I posted earlier that I had weighed on the hotel scale and it showed I was 239 well I reweighed myself on that same scale it is showing me at 250 lbs now. SIGH!! I asked if the scales were calibrated and they said they hadn't been in a long long time. So they calibrated them. Now I have gained 10lbs. YIKES!!!!!!!!

I hate this. It is awful. I hate this. I hate this. My clothes are not fitting any tighter and I don't feel any different. So I don't really know if this scale is accurate either.

I know I am not eating right.

Eating too much junk that is for sure.

Have bruised the bottom of my left foot and can't really walk as much till that heals.

I just bought a 20 min Pilates dvd to use on my laptop so that will help me get re-focused.

I can stop eating the junk stuff.

I can drink more Water.

I am not going to let all the issues with my mom, with the death of my son in laws girlfriends, and any other emotional issues keep me from losing the battle on weight. I have to fight this every single day. I have to get stronger and be more diligent.

Stay strong guys!!

No weight loss for me this week,no gai neither .. Started my monthly cycle last night.

Penni, you are under alot of stress, stress can do strange things, you are also living out of a suitcase and a hotel, do'nt fret, once you are home and back to normal and your normal routine things will be good. Hang in there Penni.

Congratulations to all of you loser's this week, awesome job!

      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.
