How low can you go in 09 weightloss challenge#1



Recommended Posts

I forgot to check in last week. I lost 1 lb. I do my official weigh ins on Fridays. It looks like I may have 3 lbs. to report tomorrow... if I drop .2 lbs. I'm glad I'm finally hitting my stride. I'm sure I'll plateau for a bit soon, but hopefully I'll keep on working through it.

Thanks China and Sue. This sure is a roller coaster of a process, isn't it? I did make the 3 lb. loss this week. Five more pounds to go and I'll be at the halfway mark! I guess that's my goal for July... to hit the halfway mark.

yes honey it is. i myself try and keep my goal low so i dont get wacked out if i dont make the goal. i got a fill and it is working for me but, i might have alittle much in. but, im gonna work with it. as i gained last time i had some removed. but, it is getting better. some days it is tighter than others.

and i have a question for pete can you tell me how many calories you eat a day. and a exsample of your menu for the day.

I weighed in at 218.4 this am. It was a good week for me. That was about 3 lbs I think- I will have to check my chart again.

I have already lost my 5 for the month, so I changed my monthly goal to 10 lbs. Here's hoping...

I was pretty tight after my last fill, but it is much better now. I suffered for about 2 weeks, then it gradually got better. I am feeling looser now though, but afraid to get another fill. I hate being too tight. I would rather fight to control what I eat that PB all morning and hope the afternoon and night stuff goes down better.

Great job everyone- keep it up!

I had my first official weight gain of 3#'s at the doctors office. I haven't done very good at all. I got a .5cc fill and I think I am about to my sweet spot. I rediscovered mashed potatos and it got me a lecture at the doctors office. I think I was rebelling a little because I miss eating some foods. I am afraid I am going to be a little to tight but I am going to hang in there until it loosens up a little. I don't want any taken out because I am afraid of a gain. Hope everyone has a great week.

I appriciate all the support. I have been eating good and riding my bike every day for 30 minutes and I think I will have a loss of atleast 2-3 pounds. I am addicted to the scale and weigh everyday. I need to only weigh once a week but i worry I am not doing enough. It will all tell when I go back to the doctor on 8-25. My goal then is to have lost at least 10 pounds if not more. Wich me luck on my goal and Sue in Ne I wish you luck on your goals.

      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.
