I'm going to be cutting it close this time!

I've been eating out a lot lately too. We're in the middle of a kitchen remodel and I've had no kitchen for over a week ... with one week to go. Luckily, I've been working my ass off between the kitchen and the yard.

I seem to have hit a little slump. I still have 3 pounds left. Don't know if I will make it, but I have lost 12 so far with this challenge. I am pretty proud of that!! We still have 4 days left, so lets finish strong, and lose all the pounds we can!!

Does anyone have any ideas for a May challenge?????? If so, start a thread and let us all know about it!!!

Everyone is doing so well, congratulations!!!! My weightloss this challenge has been crazy up and down. It may be because I lost quite a bit on the last challenge, I am happy with my progress though. What is the end date of this challenge?

Well, I joined this challenge late, just about 2 1/2 weeks ago, so I made a goal to lose just 5 pounds! That did not happen, I have exercising for the past 3 weeks now, 6 days a week, I've been eating pretty clean, except this last weekend and I had a big party at my house, and ate some sweets. But for the most part, I've done really really good! I managed to lose just 2 freaken pounds. I am a little upset about the scales, but then one part of me feels really good because I feel so much smaller than just 2 pounds, I know I'm lose inches vs weight at this time, because my clothes are getting lose on me.

Thanks for letting me join in - late as it was.

An independence challenge sounds great! Post a link to the thread here after you start it so we can all join in. I really thought I would make this challenge, but I have stalled out this last week. Went to the doctor today for another fill. Hopefully that will make a difference.

Congrats to everyone on their hard work. This thing is a journey and we are ALL getting there!!

      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.
