1st lesson learned- I will never eat a chobani yogurt to start my day. Way to many sugars and carbs and it made me hungry. I need a more dense form of Protein, egg whites, chicken, fish etc.

Even though I wanted to cheat, I did not. I just bulked up my salad for lunch. I ate 975 calories today , 39 carbs, 94 Proteins, and 30 sugars (damn yogurt was bulk of that). I am still slacking on Water at 64 oz. I am struggling getting more!

Good for you! I was not drinking that and probably won't today. Maybe 90...,

Most I drank was 90, other days 70ish, which is more than I normally do. Keep it up, it is a challenge when hungry but worth it, my pants are loose.

Yes I did Water aerobics or a 3mi walk every day

Hi Artsong, I did workout every day of bootcamp, I don't loose much without the workout. Since you say you are a slow loser, have you ever tried upping your calories for 2 days and then going back to your standard low cal diet? Occasionally I have done this and I think it revs up the metabolism or something and I see it breaking a plateau. Maybe someone else can explain what it does or maybe you have tried and know all about it.

Keep up your good work, slow & steady wins the race :-))

So today is going much better since I started with dense Protein. Mio is helping greatly. I should have 9 glasses in by the time I leave work! This is day three and I am hoping for great results on Sat's weigh in. Hubby and I are going on movie date Friday and we agreed to take Jerky and almonds.

Finished Diva's Boot Camp yesterday down 3.6lbs and 4.6lbs since Sunday!!! This is the biggest loss since Week 1! What I learned, 1) drinking Water is still my challenge 2) I cannot start my day with a yogurt or carb, it leads to a hungry feeling that is hard to shake 3) I am traditionally a "slow loser" so I am, working on excepting that fact and 4) I don't want to live my life without carbs, but I want to make good carb decisions (make them count) 5) logging my food a day prior helps me stay on track 6) I am happy with myself that I am working out regularly!

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
