I'm expecting to hit 299 in 3 weeks
Our race across the '99 line is still on, then! At the rate I'm going, I might not get there for another four or five weeks, but I'd love to get to the "other side" by May 1. Ready, set. . .

Hey! Where is everybody this week? I lost a half a pound, nothing short of miraculous considering how much chocolate and ice cream I put away last week. Slowly crawling to the 200 mark... Jonathan, how are you doing?

Nothing as drastic as I was hoping, but I'm 2 lbs down -- now at 316.

Oops, that's only down a pound. Guess I'm crawling right along with you =)

I guess to keep myself honest I should post my starting weight as 264. That's what I weighed on my home scale the day I left for Monterrey. But I miraculously weighed less at Dr. Rumbaut's office, and 261 didn't sound nearly as bad, so I used it as my official weight, rationalizing that the doc's scale must be more accurate than my generic model. Now, though, I might as well face reality! So I'm changing my signature as of today. Wish I could honestly state my current weight was lower. :)

(sigh) I lost 1 pound.

I have a confession to make: I have been eating crap for 2 weeks now! Just ate a jumbo *not small* JUMBO hershey bar w/ almonds - then finished Anne's cheetoes.... badbadbad Paula!!!!! :angry

Just for mental abuse, I looked on the hershey wrapper for the calories..... ONLY 410! :dead

Thats a meal.

I lost one pound. One week, one pound. Three weeks, three pounds. I know that I'm right on target, but I sure was hoping to loose faster than one pound a week. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, quick being so hard on myself because I'm right on target!

Slow and stead wins the race. But geeze, can't I be a little more glamourous than a tortus? I wanna be something sleek like a cheeta! Or a leapord! yeah, that's it!

      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.
