Today is day two of the Water challenge. Yesterday I managed to drink 72 ounces of Water. Today I'm doing fine also, a little slower than yesterday but I'm working on glass number three and its only noon. I slept in today,so I've got a late start.

How are the rest of you doing? Anyone having a hard time getting the water in by the end of the day?

I'd love to hear from you.

Okay everybody, last day of the Water challenge. Lets finish with a big success ok. I'm just getting up, it's not quite 7:30 a.m. here and i'm planning a nice long walk at 9:00. So I'm only going to have a little water right now to avoid any major bathroom breaks during my walk. I'll be checking in the chat room from time to time to see how you are doing. Good Luck.

Hey everyone...just wanted to include an encouragement for drinking our water...from a book called...The Total Temple Makeover by Dr. Gregory Jantz... www.aplaceofhope.com

Just starting the 90 day quick chapters, day 3 is...

New Habit #1 THINK WATER--the most important "food" for your body!!! Making sure your body is properly hydrated is the cornerstone of healthy eating.

The benefits of proper hydration are tooo numerous to mention. Your skin, hair, organs, digestion-practically every body part and function benefits! How bout these...

Aids in fat metabolism, Helps concentration (I need that one, lol and Wynn too, lol) Gives proper muscle tone, Improves mood, Regulates blood pressure and (a fav for us) Decreases water retention!

Hope this helps, go chat bandsters, go!!!:)

Hi chatters. Day three today and I'm done with 7 glasses of Water so far. I have plenty of time to finish that last glass, in fact, looks like I'll go over today.

Before I give the next challenge, please leg me encourage you to keep up the good habits you're developing through these challenges. The first was no snacking and I know we only did that one for one day, but perhaps it will help us if we come back to it again from time to time. And the second was the water. So if you are not snacking, and you are drinking all of your water then you'll be getting super skinny in no time.

OK, ready for the next challenge:

Journalling. This will also be a three day challenge and it is to write down every single thing you eat. There are some online places that you can use. I understand thedailyplate.com is a good site. I use sparkpeople.com because it is a complete weight loss website where i can get a lot of different kinds of support just like lbt. Plus they have a yuma team so I can actually exercise with members etc. But please, if you don't like these then find your own or for that matter you can journal on a piece of paper (old school).

Good luck everybody. See you in Chat!

Wynn, I'm in for the next challenge. I got in over 100 ounces of water per day for the last challenge, but thankfully I've never had a problem getting my water in. Keep the challenges coming as this is helping me to get back on track, thanks again!

      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!!
