    Exercising ...but at 300 lbs

    I don't think I have ever been so tired and so sore in my ENTIRE life. I am a week out from meeting with my surgeon and hopefully receiving a surgery date within the next 30 days. So I decided to jump into a workout regimen....A BOOTCAMP! Part of me feels like I need this workout and part of me feels like it's too much. I believe I'm the biggest person in the class and I am truly struggling. Bouncing around with 300 on my back/knees is KILLER!! I hurt 1, If I ever mention that I'm considering not having the surgery.....PLEASE...just say the work BOOTCAMP!!!!

    What's grandma's secret?

    Does anyone have an old remedy for clearing up the irritation on your inner thigh from the friction? My inner thighs have always been darker so now that I'm losing, I'd like to lighten them up. Any suggestions?

    Please help me!

    Ramen noodles wouldn't be the best choice. I'm on day 3 of my pre op diet and have only felt hungry once. Try a shake followed by a bottle of Water. Then have a creamy Soup later with a bottle of water and Crystal light. Eat some Greek yogurt and cottage cheese for Breakfast. There are several different options.

    Unsupportive Family Members

    I've made a conscious decision not to tell my family. I live in the same house as my mother and will not be telling her. Based on history and knowing them, this makes for a far less stressful decision to keep them in the dark. The only person that knows is my daughter (who is uber supportive) and my best friend, only because I want him to sit with my daughter in the waiting room so she isn't alone. My grandmother would worry herself to death so I'm just asking her to say a prayer for me for my birthday (my surgery day). Will I ever tell them? No. Everything isn't for everybody. Definitely make the best decision for you.

    Two quick questions

    What did this card say?
  9. Yesterday was my first day of my pre op diet. My surgery date is June 7th. I wasn't very hungry but I do feel like I didn't get enough of anything. I only had on Protein Shake, about 5 bottles of Water, I did make a salad for lunch and beef broth for dinner. That's about it. That broth did make me a bit nauseous but I did finish it. I'm not a fan of beef broth. Now put an onion in it with texas toast and a slab of cheese and you got a winner. SORRY! lol Today I had a Protein shake, chocolate pudding, 5 bottles of water and hoping to have some broccoli and cheddar Soup for dinner. I'm not doing something right.

    Exercising ...but at 300 lbs

    I weighed in and lost 8 lbs in 4 weeks. My trainer said I should've lost more so I gotta lot more work to do. *sigh*
  18. Came home to find a bill for my copay. They said I have to pay it before the surgery or it'll be cancelled. Guess I'll write it this $98 check. I can handle that. I don't think I have to pay anything else but I'll call and make sure.

    Gotta bill for my surgery...

    I wanna VIP room too. Lol
  21. I haven't been having a problem. I don't do funerals in real life Soooooo saying goodbye to foods doesn't bother me. Honestly, is not a goodbye, I'll see it later but hopefully I make better choices, eat far less, their some fruits, veggies and throw some Water in there. I stay my two week preop on 5/24 and have lost about 10 lbs so far. Easy breezy

    Gotta bill for my surgery...

    Holy CRAP. I wasn't expecting to hear how much more some had to pay. That's crazy. I apologize, I didn't mean to boast. But at least we have insurance to cover a great portion of this.

    Very true, thanks. My biggest fear is being saggy and having no muscle at all
