Cinco de mayo ... what the ... ? Doesn't mean much to an Aussie, even if her mum was born in Mexico. :confused2:

Since my last fill I'm so tight I can barely drink Water. I am going to keep this though and make sure I get the Protein drink in Water. The Protein Drink in a can won't stay down. I know, I'm loony. Maybe I can kickstart a better loss. Seems like I'm down to 1 pound a week. I need this challenge!!

Ok, I am always the one with the lowest goal. I guess it's better mentally for me to set a lower goal and get there then to set a high goal and feel like i failed. Anyway, I did set this goal higher than I usually do for the amount of weeks in the challenge. Ha, this fresh fill must have me optimistic.

Good Luck everybody!

Thank you! It sure feels good to be able to be "present" for my son and wrestle and play. And then there is the fact that I can actually get around and do things! I love my motility now. (no this is not a power chair commercial) LOL. I just go and do! I can not believe how much better I feel. My wife is just amazed at how fast I am losing weight... she likes the new me I am turning in to. I am now lighter now than I have been in the 8 plus years we have been married! What I am going to like is the point when I drop below 275. That is what I was when I met "Love". I showed her a picture of me in 9th grade. It was a candid full profile (head to toe) and I was 210 then. That is my ultimate goal. It may take a while to get there from 400, but it is just coming off one day at a time. I can't worry about tomorrow and I can't beat myself up for decisions I made yesterday. I look forward to weigh in every Wednesday and the ladies at the bariatric center are just amazed at my progress. One of them had the band placed this past summer and she is just blown away at how fast it is coming off me.

Well, I have to study for a BIG test tomorrow.

Hi Peaches, You found us. Great!

TXArcher: I know just what you mean, it is truly amazing to feel like this.

My husband sees my "rear" view more often than I, and he continues to tell me how much my "cottage cheese butt" is going down! Small Curd is what he tells me it is now. LOL Good thing I have a good sense of humor and don;t take those comments too seriously. Overweight people develop a thick skin anyway and I know he doesn't mean anything in a bad way. He is very supportive, like your wife. Lucky us!

      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.
