Bubble bubble, toil and no trouble, Eye of newt, foam of Protein Shake, blood of a skinny model, sweat from the forehead of a bandster, the magical brew to win this challenge!

Ready for that sexy witch outfit? Ready to knock them dead with your hot bod in the playboy bunny costume?

Let's fly to weight loss on bat wings and broomsticks!

I challenge YOU to lose 15 lbs by Halloween. We have 7.5 weeks to exercise, eat right, drink all of our Water, get all of our Protein, and become weight loss witches!(Or wizards!)

We can do this!

Anyone ready to put on their witches hat, grab their broomstick and black cat and fly FLY to the goal?

All riiiight! Seems like a nice little coven of weight loss witches!

I began my challenge yesterday!

Water: YES!

Protein: Nearly all, 80%

Carbs(my personal downfall): Potato chips and mashed potatos, but controlled portions.

Exercise: No

Not to be too personal, but it is that time of the month, so I have a feeling my scale will take a few days to start moving.

LadyDi: Nice to meet you! And yes, it is a difficult challenge, but we can do it!!!

Maddog: I never thought I would be under 220 for a long time, and wow, now I am here! You will do it!

Cherrybomb: SexyWitch Blog of course! And who says playboy bunny has to wait? :eek:

Suzzie: YES! That scale will be scared into moving !

Isabella: You are already more than half way! Imagine where you will be with 15 off!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
