new years weightloss challenge

Yes, my throat was sore. It is from the pipe they put down your throat to help you breath. It doesn't last long. Your throat is just irritated because it was dry. Just keep drinking warm liquids.

Glad to hear you are doing well after surgery.

So today is my 2 week anniversary from surgery. Ok so that means it time to weigh myself. I stepped on the scale and booya! 423.0lbs I lost another 11.8 lbs!!!! I am down 23.6lbs for December so far! And this means I have lost 19.2lbs since I got the band! So I beat my December goal already!!! I guess I should now bump my goal up like another 10 lbs so now my new goal January 1 will be 30 lbs lost. Woot!

Hi China!

I have lost 19.2 lbs since my surgery. So in two weeks I lost that much! I am able to get plenty of liquid down and have bumped up the walking. Tomorrow I get to start mushies so we'll see how that part of the diet goes. I am excited to move forward with my weight loss and love seeing how everyone is doing too!

Hi China,

I know what you mean about wanting to be surprised. I refuse to weigh myself more then once a week. I know for fact that your body weight fluctuates from day to do so weighing yourself more then once a week is almost defeating in itself. I knew I had lost this week but I made sure to wait. Not to mention it's just cool stepping onto the scale and going "Wow!" lol

      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.
