I am averaging around 650 calories a day. I'm just not that hungry any more. I drink water in between meals to help with hunger. I need to remind myself to eat. I was a boredom eater in the past. I keep myself going and busy now. No more couch potato for me any more. Welcome to our family!????

You both are doing so good.

If anyone wants to do some power walking in elk River on the Great Northern Trail send me a PM. It's a very nice paved walk and I go for five miles.

That's no joke. Me energy level has gone through the roof this week. I was told by week 4-5 it kicks in and it has. Getting up and going in the morning is so much better now. Everything feels so much better!

Where and who makes those chips. I want some. Low fat?

Dude your doing fantastic!

Time for a weight check in: HW 281 SW 266 CW 249

I'm so happy it's raining today. I'm beat up from yesterday's hike. Think I'm going to nap on a cold rainy day.

249.2 this morning. Woop woop.

Shakti, try to identify if it is tummy hunger or head hunger. I keep busy so I do not think of food. Don't know what you do for exercise.

I am making the Jell-O shots with vodka and yes powder. I need to wait a few weeks though. I weighed in this morning at 250.2 I want to move into the next decade badly. I hiked for 4.5 miles and pushed it hard. When I want something I go for it! Let you know tomorrow morning.

Hi! Are you new to the challenge or have you changed your name? If you're new, do you have a goal weight for 11/2?Thanks! I checked in early on

Marcia let us know when your new surgery date is please

MellisaG I mean not karen

How do I share my diary for you to see? Sorry about all the questions. I hope pitbull is doing better today. I am really getting a huge energy boost this week. How about you?

Yes I can see it. Karen is packing in the protein every meal. I am going to keep an eye on her diary. She put up some impressive numbers.

Is it possible to see your diary on Myfitnesspal?

Love the smooth move its my buddy

Thought I would lighten up this thread. It's been a little intense in here.

I think I am going to make some sugar free Jell-O shots tonight.

Checking in today 251

Pitbulgirl call your doctor and get in and get checked out. There can be a stricture (narrowing) in your sleeve. It is treatable by stretching. Please get checked out. Prayers going up for you.

They will approve down to 35 BMI

Dearest Marcia, we are just into our fourth week post op and as with surgery there are some hurdles to jump. I am feeling better than I have in a long time. I have some constipation but that comes with any surgery. I would never go back and not get sleeved. I am doing this because of heart disease. I am going to be thinner and healthier. My sleeve is my tool to help me get there. You have to make up your own mind.

I'm at work but will get back to you tonight. So glad your ok
