November Nymphs Summer Meltdown Challenge



Recommended Posts

Cindy,

I like the idea of a Halloween challenge, or we could do a 1 year Band Birthday Challenge.

Either way whatever you want to set up is great. :biggrin:

I finally talked myself into getting on the scale. As I stood there cringing and waiting for the number to appear I was shocked to find out that I didn't gain an once!! I didn't lose either but I'm thrilled that all that fudge and chowder didn't do much. The Summer Meltdown is officially over and the winner is...(drumroll, please)....SADES!!!!!!

Sades, you rock!! See what a little restriction can do?! Now it's time to start a new challenge as we head towards our Bandiversary. Can't believe that almost a year has gone by!

Hey Foofy, there's no way I'm going to make goal. I haven't lost an ounce since my unfill. I have been up and down the last 3 lbs for 2 weeks. I'm getting a small fill on Sept. 4th. Hope that gets me moving again. This challenge is over on Labor Day, Sept. 1st. Where did the summer go? I can't believe it's almost over.

Any ideas for the next challenge, anyone? I've been thinking about it and thought a "Scare off the Pounds for Halloween" challenge could be fun. That would be a 2 month challenge and take us to our bandiversary month. Then we could think of a holiday challenge till New Year's. What do you all think?

I'll be away from tomorrow through Friday. I'm renting a house in Narragansitt, RI and there isn't internet in the house. I may go through withdrawal! Guess I'll have to spend more time on the beach! Judy, you mentioned that you are going to Narragansitt on the day I'm leaving. What a coincidence! Wish we were there at the same time. Would have loved to get together. I'm leaving by early afternoon. I'll check in when I get home. I'm thinking of packing my scale if I can find room in the car. It would keep me honest. Have a great week, Nymphs! :party:

Cindy, Where did you rent the house? I have three rentals in Narragansett near Scarborough Beach. I stayed at one from Mid May to Mid July and then came home to Ct for the rest of the summer.

Was it a good vacation? I think you had great weather that week, right? Was this your first time in Narragansett?

Judy, we stayed on Great Island on Periwinkle Drive near Gallilee. Where in Scarborough are your houses? We went to Scarborough beach twice. It was beautiful. Are your rentals houses, condos, or apartments? When do you rent them? How much do you charge? Do you rent privately or list with a realtor? We may be interested in renting again next year. You can answer me here or email me at cindyg@hvc.rr.com. Wished we could have gotten together in RI. We had a wonderful time and the weather was perfect. We overdosed on lobster and chowder and ate at a great restaurant called "Spain". We also visited Newport, Wakefield, and Wickford. Loved the great shops. It was actually my second time in Narragansett. I was only 12 years old the first time.

Cindy, I sent you an e-mail about my houses (which have wireless internet so no withdrawal). Spain is one of the best restaurants in RI, they are busy year round, not just in the summer.

Wickford is adorable and of course Newport is great. We went to dinner in Newport over the Labor Day weekend.

You can check out my houses on the web site info I sent you. The rates, available weeks and lots of photos are posted on the site.

Did you rent through a realtor?

      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.
