My goal this month is to get to 280...so 6 lbs. I am just moving off a plateau and hope to continue to go down. I've beefed up my walking. Up to 5 miles :tongue_smilie:at least 5 days a week .... This goal may be to much but I'm going to set the bar high...

Wow, I'm technology challenged and just figured out how to put in you quote ... I know it's really self explanatory but it was a big thing for me...maybe next I'll tackle a ticker:blush:. So along with me losing weight with all of your support I'm gaining in technology knowledge...Baby steps and we will get there. Patience, boy have we had to learn and practice this.

By the way where do we see this chart?

238! Just back from a week long camping trip. I endulged a bit with some foods that are not ok, but I didn't over do it and keep things in moderation.

All in all a great trip and great news from the scale!!

That moderation is the key, I had my first major event since making goal, a family wedding. I gained 3 pounds to be 2 over goal, and 4 days later I'm back to goal.

      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.
