Summer Weightloss Challenge



Recommended Posts

I really hoped to code some neat stuff for the new challenge, but with some new challenges in my own life (newly single dad, new pastor, moving to a new house in a new town, you know, little things like that =) )

I dunno Jonathan, sounds like a cop-out to me.... (WINK) I mean, you're doing exotic dancing in Walmart....

Count me in ! This will be a great source of accountability for me, which is just what I need at this point. I've been banded nearly 3 months, and most of my weight came off in the first month. I've been struggling with gaining/losing/gaining the same 3-4 pounds for 2 months now. I'll post my weight and before picture Monday, which is when I'm scheduled for my next fill, so this ought to be great! 10 in 10 , I can do it!

Count me in too. I'm stuck, I need a fill, but need to get off of my lazy bum and make the 2.5hr drive with my mongrel pack of children and get things started!

Has anyone else had the "summer is here and it's easy to eat quick things" problem that I'm having??

I'm SOOOOOOOOOOO happy that this starts in the morning. I have been a very bad little girl this weekend, and it involves yummy tasting IBC rootbeer that glided down into my gullet nice and smooth with no complications what-so-ever. It also involved yummy minty bliss Oreos too.

Dear God help me, cause no one else can!!!! LOL!!!!

I think I have everyone so far. Just to clarify, you have to list your starting weight here, or send it to me via a "quicknote" on the challenge website. If you do that, be SURE to include your user name.

I'm using ONLY user names this time, so there's no confusion over who's who.

With your starting weight, PLEASE also include your GOAL weight as of the end of the challenge. I'll update the software to record that later, and will have it do something cool to your name when you reach goal =)

Once you're in the system with a starting weight, you may update your weight at any time on your own.

      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.
