I haven't lost any more weight this week - stayed at 280 for the past 4 days I've been on my period...is this normal not to lose? Oh well, maybe more next week!!!!!

YES, this is totally normal! Don't worry, it will come off! My scale hasn't moved for a week either and prior to my last weight loss, I was stalled for almost 3 weeks!! Hang in there, it will come!

I am down 2 more...slowly but surely. I have now lost a total of 6...guess I should have made my goal 10, I could have made that!

I finally have a little restriction...I got 3.5cc's in a 9cc band.

Since I know I'm going to be slammed this week with work, I wanted to update a day early. I am SO EXCITED reading all the weight lost- you all truly inspire me!! I've been stuck at my weight now for going on 2 weeks; but I started working out and actually gained 3lbs :laugh: so being back down to where I was is good enough for me! We still have about a week left, so no matter if you met your goal or not, we have ALL achieved amazing results!! This challenge was to keep you motivated not make you :angry: if you didn't meet your goal. Great job all, I hope I got everyone caught up!!

Ok, this is my first post, just joined tonight...I would love to take the challenge and lose 3 lbs by May 5th. I was was banded in Jan..first lost 43 lbs...after second fill have gained about 5 lbs. back...don't know why...think I'm too tight...but- that's another story. I'm ready for the challenge..3 lbs would be good after gaining.

      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.
