I had a similar moment today... I exchanged hellos with an avid, drop dead gorgeous size 2... And she gave the nicest smile when she said it... It really made me feel less embarassed about the sweat pouring off my body! Thanks for sharing!

That was incredibly breath taking! I can't run as I have two prosthetic knees, but I work out on the recumbent bicycle, and I attempt to use the eliptical. I'm one of those that blasts my music and doesn't have eye contact with all the fit people at the gym. But now I feel that maybe I can meet their eyes, not be ashamed of sweating with little effort and not be ashamed and embarassed at going much slower than the others at the gym.

I am going to print this out and read it everytime I'm afraid to go to the gym. Bless you for posting this.

This was my take on your post...

Thanks Mellio!

Those are perfect! :D I have an image I wanted to post in this thread, but don't know how to do it. It's in my Pictures on my computer. Would you know how to post it?

Not sure. I ended up figuring it out on my phone. I'm almost always on my phone. There must be some way to add an attachment. That's how I did it on the phone.

      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.
