Weight Warrior

I am EXTREMLY HYPER ACTIVE since surgery, I have found i need to do somthing very physical at night so i can sleep at night.

one other point is this all fits into my plan. i account for this in my protien count and calorie count for each day.

Check with your nut. mine had me eating a small high protien snack at 10 pm. ( based on my schedule) to avoid this occuring. her rational is since you sleep for 6-8 hours a night she wants high protien in the system to get you through. Protein burns more efficently and longer in you system, so just a wee bit gets you through. this does work for me. hope this helps. RJ

Your always welcome :-)

To many carbs for one sitting , but i spread mine over the entire work day, it is 2 servings

Sorry KD. i posted the nut data for diminishingdawn just now. i overstated the protien it actually 16 grams but for something you can throw in you pack or carry to work and get your fluids and protien ...its on my shopping list. hope this helps RJ

My Surgeon rocks :-) each one has a diffrent method. i use his monthly group meeting as my measuring stick on the effectivness of his methods. the room is filled with thin happy healthy people and those of us who will be joining them soon :-)

Karlam, glad to hear from you! dont worry about the consults, it took me 9 months to get through the SLoad of tests they hsd me go through but im glad it took that long ! it gave me the chance to start changing thing so by the time surgery i was mentally amd physically ready for the journey. i discovered theain reason for my eating was boredom. i wasnt challanging my self..... set goals. plan things. get oit be social. evem if it taking a walk ....just get off the couch and into the game!!!" my post surgery experiemce is the thing movies are made from. i see and feel the changes daily. i have not been this excited and happy with life. i meet with a personal trainer on wendsday im going to hire him for 6 months to help me set a healthy exercise routine that i can fit into my schedule and try to tone to minimize the dreaded SAG if i can be of any help with the pre op jitters ask! oh 2 things 1) try not weigh yoursef 2 much some people dont understand daily weight fluxs between 2 - 3 pounds daily. just work the program and hit your numbers,exercise. and your body will take care of the rest. 2). Stalls happen!they always will! the body is a wonderful self correcting machine, it knows you have changed something and will fight had to hold onto ots gat supply.so change up your routine evety couple of weeks. if you walking? try a light gym work out ( when your surgeon clears you). do some light cardio . ever minute afer 30 minutes is time you are burning fat. let me know how thing progress. im excited you are on your way . its soooooo diffrent on this side....in a very very good way :-) RJ
