I went to Vegas this weekend for a wedding. I thought I was taking the weekend off from walking, but that is just what you do in Vegas, walk walk walk! It was broken up by gambling, drinking, and eating good food though. So I'm back on the treadmill today, stretching out the muscles.

Amy, I was thinking about how I might push myself in November too! This challenge was really what I needed to get myself going. I have been walking since January, but I guess I really needed someone to TELL me to do it consistently about 5 days a week.

I didn't quite meet my goal but I feel good about what I did accomplish. Congratulations to all on getting moving! With the holidays fast approaching, November's challenge will be a big help to help all of us who are still learning to live with the band.

See you for the November challenge.

May

      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.
