You are doing good too for pre-op.  I didn't do that good as a pre-op.  I was bad, hahaha.  But, I only had to go on liquids for 2 days before surgery.  I think??

Now, we are not to do comparisons, but I do drink 64 oz of water daily plus other liquids too.  You are still in the sipping stage, right?
I also have a protein shake each day, that's another 16 oz. for 23 grams of protein plus my foods.  I haven't tried egg whites and I find too many carbs in potatoes of any kind for me.  So, I try to get over 60 grams of protein in each day, I would love 90.
I posted my accountability for yesterday that has a list of what I ate.  We can all do this daily and help each other along?

I just started using the tread mill, I was just too weak to do much before now, I had a revision and it was really hard on me.  I am drinking my water but I don't alwats get enough I know.  I am getting my protein, I even had chicken yesterday.  I don't seem to handle many foods well, I have been doing mostly cheese sticks and cottage cheese and some egg whites.  I do some mashed taters too, but not too often.  I can usually only eat like 3-4 ounces.  What should I have as an example per each meal?  Like ounces and all?  I think I am doing it right, but maybe not?

 

Thanks for your guidence.

Also, when your fresh out of surgery you are so bloated on gasses and IV fluids. You will start losing before you know it so don't give up hope. Like Pat said too hiding the scale might just be the thing you should do for a time. Good luck in your journey!

Robbylynn.......You aren't doing anything wrong.  Please, don't worry.  Are you getting any exercise?  Drinking lots of water?  How much protein are you getting daily?  You might just need to hide those scales for a couple of weeks.  We all have stalls.  It seems the closer I get to goal the longer my stalls are, but I know I'm doing everything that I can do to lose. 
Don't be too hard on yourself, it will happen.
Big Hugs,
Pat A

I had my surgery on the 13th of January, 2009 and I have not lost anything for three weeks?  It is really frustrating.  I have been eating so very little, but it doesn't seem to matter.What am I doing wrong?

Oh Lisa!  That is such wonderful news!  I'm so excited for you and your hubby.  You are going to see such a change in your lives.  All the WOW moments that you will have, I hope you will share with us.  I wish you both success in your journeys and I hope to be able to welcome you both to the losers bench.  Have a great day with your girlfriend, I bet you all have a fun time.  I think you all might get that snow from CA, right?

I would love to get together but don't know when I'll be on that side of the state. Once I figure that out hopefully it coincides with some meeting!

You did real good! I didn't have breakfast (I know that will have to change after surgery!) and had a grilled chicken wrap for lunch, a sugar free pudding for a mid afternoon snack, and a bowl of chili for dinner. Then i had a small bowl of ice cream.  That is my accountability for yesterday! :)
