Puddin - Are you going to Disneyland or Disneyworld?

We live in FL and go to Disneyworld every month with yearly passes we have.

Next week we will be at MGM alot - we go to the annual Star Wars Weekend. Not sure where we are going the other 2 days - you going to the Magic Kingdom?

Shoot, Lisa, we're going to Disneyland for 2 days before our cruise. I'll be at Disneyland this coming Saturday and Sunday. How FUN that you have a yearly pass! That would be great. I'm moving to So Cal next Spring for grad school and I was thinking of getting a yearly pass to Disneyland. I'm afraid I'd get sick of it, though. Disneyworld is SO much bigger!

Okay yall, I need to get myself back in gear... I have a lot going on these next few months and I am trying hard to stay on track. I was suppose to lose and be at my first goal (250) by the end of April, well that DIDNT happen. So I am trying again this month. I need to get to 240 by the end of this month. I didnt do so great on the eating while I was in Memphis, but I worked my azz off at the gym near the hotel. In those efforts, I managed to gain back the 5 lbs I lost right before I left. So unofficially I am at 251.5. I go to Orlando this Sat for a weekend getaway and I KNOW I WILL BE DRINKING... so there is another couple of pounds there. I know I know... I am probably putting myself in a worry, but this was suppose to be a mini reward vacation for losing the weight that I DIDNT LOSE. So that being said, please send a lil encouragement my way cuz I am feeling a lil crappy right now. :cry

I will work my butt off this week in an effort to lose 5lbs before Sat. and not gain it back before weighin on Tuesday.... goals for this week :cry

Monday- I burned 530 cal on the treadmill this morning. I plan to walk around the park this afternoon.

Tuesday- burn another 500 cal on the treadmill and take a step aerobics class in the evening

Wed- 500 cal on the treadmill, double step in the evening

Thurs- 500 cal on the treadmill and a few laps in the pool followed by a relaxing time in the whirlpool

Fri- 500 cal on the treadmill, and a step class

Sat- walk up and down international drive in Orlando

Sun- more walking

WOW! Teresa - great job :clap2:

I never thought to add up the miles, inches, cm I was walking lol not sure mine would be as impressive as yours!

Still resting this week - other than a large order I got in and have to sort through.

We are leaving Friday so I will walk Fri - Sun then :faint: because my husband has these legs [drools] muscular as heck and when we go he RUNS everywhere lol

Anyone ever used one of the Ab Chairs? I saw it in another thread and am thinking of getting one - weight limit is 250 though UGH! I am at 260 still. Wonder if I can still do it?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
