My body is refusing to participate. It would appear that despite 1-2 hours at the gym 6 days a week, my body is determined to stay right where it is at.

I had a fill yesterday and have ramped up my excercise. I updated the spreadsheet! Looks like I have 3 more pounds to go.

The fill has really helped me as I had started slipping a bit. Way to go everyone and keep the focus on.

gingerbug--

don't get discouraged! you have proved to everyone how awesome you already are! now that you are PAST your goal and just reachin for the ultimate of "smokin hot" (which i already think you are-- but you have to be the judge on that one!), your body probably just wants to go reallllly slow. i bet when you arent paying attention, over the course of the next few months, you will lose those last few.

you are seriously SUCH an inspiration!

Ahh, thank you for your kind words. I needed to ehar that today. I peed and peed and peed today and I think I meight be primed for some weight loss when I wake up in the morning. I need to do some research regarding protien after heavy weightlifting. I had a smoothing king shredder today after my workout and felt just great all day. 30 grams of protien right after a workout. I need to google this.

      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.
