TURKEY DAY Challenge 2009



Recommended Posts

Hey guys, just to let you all know,

I sorted the spreadsheet by user name so that it is now alphabetical. No need to mark your name in a special color just to find it. (If everyone colors their name, then they'll all be hard to find! :) )

Your name should be there, alphabetically, with numbers first.

Thanks RobinAnn for setting this spreadsheet up (and the alpha-sort was a great idea)! 'Linky-doo' hee-hee-hee!

Glad to see our April Group has moved on over to this new LBT challenge (the Bunnies are multiplying again LOL).

I think this challenge is just what I needed. I've lost

3lbs. since Monday.....BUT....I was REALLY bad last

weekend so some of that is bound to come off faster.

I have got up at 4:30am 2 mornings and did a walk/jog

program, I've had it for months but was too lazy to use

and I played softball last night(which I've been doing once

a week since spring). Took today off but will be back at

it tomorrow. Also there is a Turkey Day 5k close to home...

I'm gonna give that a try. I've had no motivation to get

off my lazy butt. I forgot how good I felt after exercise.:thumbup:

I seem to be going in the wrong direction. I gained weight last week. Need to get serious this week. I didn't set that big of a goal, so if I work at it, I should be able to do it. I'm thinking positive...

      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.
