As I watched the second showing of the Biggest Loser the other day, the theme song really hit home for me. So I copied down the first sentence in huge black letters & placed the note in a central location in my home. I pass it constantly. It reads:

What have you done today to make you feel proud?

It helps motivate me & I if you do it maybe it may help you as well!

I also watched the BIGGEST LOSER as well the other night. It just inspired me to get my butt moving. Love all that energy from the contestants.

Congratulations! You will succeed because you are motivated. The band is a very useful tool and I think it is the best thing to help people escape the fat prison. I love my band and I am beginning to feel "normal". I mean I'm not completely obsessed with food anymore. Sometimes I feel afraid because my dependency on food was so all consuming that it feels like mourning the loss of an old freind. Sounds pretty silly huh? I guess it's okay to be silly, what the heck, at least I'm not eating. Best of luck to you.

      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.
