Summer Weightloss Challenge



Recommended Posts

How is everyone doing? I had a great week for exercise, but I didn't do well with my Water and food. :rolleyes I really have no excuse! I just didn't do what I set out to do. Since my heartburn and reflux are better and I haven't had a problem in over a month, I made an appointment to get a fill. I am currently unfilled and will probably get 1cc on 7/6. Maybe I can get back on track... for now, this week, I stayed exactly the same. :cry

It looks like some of us are doing really well... Congratulations!!!

Have a great week everyone!

Hi Everyone!

I haven't introduced myself yet (been lurking for a month) but this looks really fun and I'd really like to join the summer weight loss challenge!

Put me down at 206 starting Monday 7/4. Goal is 186 by Labor Day (20#).

Banded by Dr Ortiz 6/2

Starting weight: 228.... 206 on 7/4

Now, let's see... where do I get one of those ticker things???

Hello Kare! Love your name! Thanks for the pronunciation instructions :( Hey, way to jump right in here! Glad to have you!

Oh, and look...our stats are very similar. I started at 223 and I'm now 205. However! you were banded 2 months after me. :eek Good job! Let me know if you still need help on your ticker...I can direct you I think.

SASSAAY! I'm getting filled the 6th too! Cant' wait!

Sorry I'm late....

I am relieved to report that my weight stayed the same even though I had a really tough week food-wise so I'm still at 245.

I lost 2 lbs. so I'm at 190 now. I actually weigh on Thursdays because that's when I had my surgery so I just continued my weekly weigh-ins on the same day. My 2 lbs. was as of last Thursday. I had a bad couple of days over the weekend so I am probably up 1 lb. right now.

      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.
