I was able to JOG a quarter of a mile. I was sooooooooo excited to jog. I have never jogged since being fat. I was so proud of myself. I end up walking a little bit over 2.5 miles. When I got home it was the best sleep I had ever had.:notagree I want to see if I can jog a quarter every other day for a month and then move to jogging 1/2 a mile.:clap2:

Best of luck Jay!!! I am just going to stick to walking up to Thompson and back and riding my bike. Jogging has never really appealed to me. I hope it is your magic bullet to get you below that 200 goal!

Wow, that's awesome! Jogging is very difficult for me - I don't think I breathe right. I immediately get a stitch in my side if I try.

Keep up the good work!! Pretty soon you'll be running a marathon!!

:first:

Awesome! I hate jogging so I think it's an NSV in itself that you motivated yourself to jog, and then you get another NSV for actually being able to job!

So, 2 gold stars for you my friend!

Woot! way to go! and keep up the good work.

I just had to jump in and so OMG I had the exact same experience last week. Only I did jump up and tell one of my co-workers (she has been a big support for me)

Way to go!

      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.
