Ok, you have all inspired me. I've been lacking on the excersise portion of my weightloss, so I know March 1st is just around the corner, so lets all do a fitness challenge together. Any ideas on what challenge we should have? Walking distance in a month?, total minutes per day?.

Give your input and we'll do it together! Gooooooooooo January Bandsters!!!!! (yes I was a cheerleader in high school :-)

Hi Mags- I want to do an exercise challenge- maybe we should each set an individual goal, then edit our post to show our updates? Example:

Goal for the month 500 minutes

3/1 30/270/300

3/2 30/240/300

or something like that? Of course , I don't know if we can edit an existing post?

Just an idea, whatever we decide I'm in.

Mine is working out 3x/week with resistance 2x/week and getting at least some cardio. So I guess resistance 2x a week with tabata on those days plus 1 day?

I think individual goals would be awesome. Just Do It, what does the 300 represent? I think I'm going to set my exercise goal for 750minutes for the month of March.

My exercise goal is to run at least 3 times a week in March. I am doing C25K so I can run my first 5k in May.

I think this is great! I'm trying to find every excuse to exercise! it don't mater I live on the 4th floor lol so I try to pick up speed when I go up the floors or only take one thing up at a time I even will load myself with lots of items so it's heavy, things like that lol CMD what is C25K? it sounds like something I might want to look into. I want to do a K next yr but more like a 10k or 15k lol

Ok bandsters lets get out there and MOVE! We can do it lets get up and move our bodies! lol yes Mags I always wanted to be a cheerleader lol :P

CMD what is C25K?

Hi! C25K is Couch to 5K. It is a training program to ease you into running a 5K. There is an app for it for iPhone and Droid. I think it may be called Ease Into 5K now. Good luck!

      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.
