I have stopped working out about 2 months ago. I can start to feel it now (tighter pants). So I hate to workout with tapes like Zumba and etc. only because I can not keep up with them.

So today I promised myself I would start working out a again. So everyday from now until New Year Day I am gonna promise to put on some music and do my own dance for at least 30 minutes.

But it would help to have some others doing it too. I know we could drop a few pounds. So if you want to join me it makes it easier to know others are doing it too let me know.

I actually really love dancing to hip hop - I did about 10 minutes today and I had to take a sit break. Baby steps! :D

LizzyWildflower glad to have someone join me. Today was tough but it is so much easier when you can make your own moves than to keep up with someone else's. I like to listen to Christian music and make it a prayer and praise time too. See ya tomorrow!

Okay it is Thursday Dec. 6. I have still been going ever day, at least 30 minutes, sometimes 45 and about 4 times an hour. Pants are feeling loose and it gets easier each time. Good for my mind and body.

I have to admit I am finding this addicting. Of course I do it alone. I have clinical depression and I think this is helping my mindset. Also making my jeans feel so good.

Oh and the music has to be LOUD!!

      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.
