Need Exercise Support....help!!!



Recommended Posts

So today i have decided to get back to what i know works. After not going to the gym for the past 10 weeks after the Tummy Tuck i have really gotten lazy. To top it off, my plastic surgeon removes all the fill and for 8 weeks i had nothing. Talk about getting knocked off my high-horse. For the past two years i had it in my head that should anything happen to my band that i could do it on my own.... boy was i wrong. My hunger came back with a vengeance. I'm hungry all the time and i can eat ANYTHING... since my TT i have gained back 5lbs.... and i'm not happy about that. Now i have 5cc in my band and i'm still hungry. So this week i'm going back for 5 more.

I need help with keeping me on track. Two weeks ago i started back at zumba, but i need more. So today i'm going to strap my boobs down and attempt the c25k. I have NEVER ran before.

Anyone interested in helping me keep accountable... we can keep each other accountable. Report back either here or via messages on our day. How we did with food and exercise... I don't know about you all.... but i sure could use the help.

Let me know..... Thanks everyone and have a wonderful day.

do you use www.myfitnesspal.com? If so add me, I am holbraden. There are quite a few of us on there. Good luck with the C25K. I haven't done that, but I have started adding a little run in with my morning walks and I can go way farther than I did in the beginning!

I'm starting the c25k today also!! So if you'd like we can keep up day to day on how we are doing and keep each other accountable. I definitely need someone to help me with this that is in the same situation as I am!!

Try deep Water aerobics! It is truly the best, and if you don't use a float belt you burn even more calories. I love it because it doesn't feel like a workout while I am doing it because I am fighting buoyancy instead of gravity! It surprisingly burns ALOT of calories too... I love it and have stuck to it since I was banded 3/27/12 and have already lost 35lbs!

how does one look up another person on My Fitness Pal???

we would have to join back up at the Y to be able to do the Water aerobics. we were there for a while, but my husband wanted a more "hard-core" work out and the Y didn't do it for him.

So yesterday: Ate 6 crackers with cream cheese and strawberry pepper jelly with coffee, hand full of bugles, three little packs of sixlets... egg salad with crackers..... and one slice of pizza. could have been a lot better,,,, but could have been worse.

Walked for 45 min.

Today will be better.

      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.
