It is a 7 day cruse to the southern caribbean we are going in november just a bunch of friends. I am so excited. but I wont have a clue about what I will need. ack! OH Alaska my parents were up there last summer they love it. They drove their 5th wheel up there it is super expensive though. -

Lack of potasium in my diet always makes me cramp. legs back arms hands everything. Since I have been on this really good liquid vitimin I havent had too much problems from cramping. Hope you figure out what you need.

My brother, who has always been fit, told me when I come to visit him next year, he is going to take me to this great lake and we can run together then go for a swim. LOL it is still amazing for me to even THINK about taking a run. lol But I am making it a goal for me to be able to learn how to run so I can run with my brother. wow OH and I am going on a cruse in November and I want to drop some major weight and have the endurance to keep up with my friends in the airport. lol I SO need to get walking...faster...and maybe jog a bit.
-
OK I tried running yesterday! ROFLMAO it was so funny I honestly dont know how to run. yep I looked like an idiot on the treadmil trying to run. too funny.

I am all for renaming the thread. I am sorry to hear about you having to be unfilled I hope your plastics go great I cant wait to see some after pictures. Maybe you could PM me to let me know a ball park of what it is costing you for it. I am interested in knowing cost for when I get there. I better save now though. lol Good luck with the losing the remaining weight! I am so proud of you. Your a big insperation for me.:thumbup::thumbup:

OK I thought you were running the whole time. I am still increasing my speed when I am on the treadmill. And I push a speed for a few minutes a couple times during my work out. Like last night I walked at 2.9 huffin and puffin then I would bump it up to 3.3 for 2 minutes then down to 2.7 and when I can breath again back up to 2.9 keep that pace for 5 minutes and up it again. It is kinda fun to see what I can do. I just make sure I atleast get a mile and a half in.

Treadmill VS Elliptical
Cerrin replied to bandster_1007's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Thanks Kat not I dont feel so bad about only doing a few minutes on the one last night. I also love listening to books on my MP3 player! I get thru my work out much easier!:thumbup: -
Treadmill VS Elliptical
Cerrin replied to bandster_1007's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I like the treadmil because I am forced to go a speed I set. If I set it for a speed I have to walk that fast. even when I am watching tv I still walk the speed. On the elliptical if I get distracted I end up slowing down. That is why I prefer the treadmil. -
someone said a walk is about 15 min/mile walk. Hell I am only at a 20 min walk when I push it hard. that is 3.0 I am working up to a faster pace but I started at 1.7 2 months ago. So I am doin good in my opinion. But for a good laugh...I tried to run...I could of been put on Americas Funniest Videos. It was so funny I could not get my legs to do the running motion...imagine a 5 year old running with arms flalying that was me. in the gym, on a treadmil, trying not to fall, trying to figure out how to get my legs to run. hylarious I tell you. I think I am going to try the elypitical atleadt that is a movement You HAVE to do. I figure I could train my legs with the movement then I could learn to run. lol You have no idea how funny I looked.

OK my company just had a HUGE lunchion. with steak baked potatoe and salid and desert. then they gave us these wind breaker jackets. Real nice, right? Except I should not of ate that much. and the jacket was not the 5X I had asked for on the list but a 3X BUT! I figure I should be able to fit into it by the time a windbreaker is able to be worn in this weather. lol OH and I did not eat all of my potatoe salid or desert. I did eat the steak. lol protein right? Man I need that fill lol

I dont think you had an answer on what slime is...Slime is sliva. just a ton of it it is naturaly producing to help ease a "stuck" food down. But for us it kinda backs up and eventualy makes us want to puke. If you have had it for a few days you should definitly call your doctor to see what he says. Good luck
-
I hope you feel better. After surgery my doc gave me pills. that is how I know I can take them.
-
I try for 5 days a week. I am doing great if I can do that. I am just trying to lose the weight I dont care where it comes from I figure eventualy it will all come off. lol My legs are huge though...they always have been. Cant wait for those to get smaller too. lol I love the idea of dog pose thing. I just hope I can get off the floor once I am down there. lol

Who Has Joined A Gym Or Do You Work Out At Home?
Cerrin replied to violeteyes37's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I just cant think of a free spot in my tiny house. Except the basement. and If I put it down there It will NEVER get used. -
I finally got my apointment for my 2nd fill! She actualy called me back yesterday. So next wednesday I should get my 2nd. Whew Cottage cheese has good Protein and has always went down good for me. and peanutbutter is another of the high protein things my dr sugests for a "snack" to tide you over. Could it be your not getting enough sleep making you stressed I have heard that will make you tight too.

I finally got a call from my dr's assistant! I get my 2nd fill next wednesday. Whew! I was starting to worry they were just putting me off. I had to get a little firm with her yesterday. She kept telling me my fill would have to be approved by my dr. when he was the one to tell me It is up to me to know if I need a fill. So I told her. I have only had one fill my surgery was in december it was not like I have had the band for a year I have only had one fill and I have not had any ANY restriction. he said it was common to not have restriction after the first fill and to call to make an apointment BEFORE my 25th office visit so we didnt have an unnecessary office visit with out a fill. After all of that she was like...ok I will get back with you tomorrow...ugg always tomorrow with her...but she DID call today so I guess I have to just be firm with her. Woo hoo Fill #2 comming up. I hope it works.

Awsome Just the answers I was looking for today. I am considering this program and was wondering how fast a walk is I read where the run should be a 10 minute mile and I am going to do it on a treadmil because I am just too self councious to go outside. Even though I will be doing it in the gym...ok I am weird. lol

Who Has Joined A Gym Or Do You Work Out At Home?
Cerrin replied to violeteyes37's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
My dr said the same thing but the trainer he sent us to said it was the worst. lol Even in their group they contradict eachother. -
the thought of 5k scares the crap out of me.:thumbup::smile: Where can I look at the program? How quick do you get to 5k?
