Freedom Fighters Weekly Weigh In



Recommended Posts

Finally! Officially in ONEderland! I have been flirting with it for a couple of weeks. I actually got there, but never on weigh-in day, so I didn't count it. It feels really good, especially since I just spent the weekend @ Disney with my daughter. Good choices are hard to come by there! Movin' on down. Now to set another mini-goal.

24 pounds gone by Dec 31 (175). That's a big goal, but I think I can do it!:D

YAY Mary! Congratulations! :thumbup:

I know you can hit your end of the year goal!

I haven't been posting lately but here's my info:

Beginning weight: 294

Surgery day weight: 282

Current weight: 249

Total percent of weight lost: 15%

I have had 2 fills and I feel like I have some restriction. I am happy with the restriction I have. I get full on about 3/4 cup of food and stay full for several hours. No PBing or getting food stuck so far.

God bless you all!

Guess I will be first this Monday morning.

Last week: 199

This week: 196

A good week, it seems. Interestingly, food seems to be losing its grip on me. It used to be that there were so many things I wanted to eat that it was hard to make a decision. Now it seems that I can't decide because nothing really sounds good. I am not sure that will last, but I will enjoy it while it does!

The flip side of that, of course, is that I am not making great choices. I am not getting my Protein in, and I am eating way too many carbs as a percentage. I am going to try to get in one Protein Shake a day and work on those carbs. Also, my Water intake is not nearly what it should be. So for this week, I will try to increase water and protein and cut down on carbs. The protein thing is hard because everything seems to get stuck unless it is swimming in softness (cheese, sauce, etc.)

OK, I have rambled enough. Three pounds is great and I will enjoy it!:sad:

Hope everyone has a great Monday. I'm off to work!:sad:

Oh, Amy, you are so organized!

I can barely keep track of what day it is, let alone what percentage of weight I've lost in each "phase"...

Congrats, by the way! You've almost hit 50 pounds lost!

I might try to get in on this next Monday, since I'm actually starting to weigh myself again. :thumbup:

OK, I guess I spoke too soon last week. I am up 1.5 lbs this week, and I don't really know why....ok, yes I do. I haven't eaten great volumes of food, but I have let sugar slip back in (sneaky sneaky), and I have not been getting my Protein or my Water in. So, in the past I would not have posted, waited till I was down some more and then come back, but I am pressing the restart button right now. I got up at 6AM and got my walk in (was getting slack on that too), had a Protein Shake for Breakfast, and I am back on track. Just like that. So, I am not going to change my ticker, but I will next week, no matter what. Even though I have to go public with my failures, I will give myself that little bit of grace. :thumbup:

I hope everyone else has GOOD news to report. I will next week!

LW - 196

Current 197.5 :blink:

      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.
