I Only Run If I'm On Fire...



Recommended Posts

Was what I used to tell people! But last night I took a boot camp style exercise class and ran with no problems for about 10 minutes as our warmup. I am so proud of myself! It was easy and I kept up with everyone else no prob. I never thought I would run.. Ever! NSV !!

Good for you! I tried to do the 30 day shed once or twice and the jumping jacks got me. I was so suprised . . . .I could do them 20 years ago lol. Keep up the good work!

Congratulations! I couldn't run if I was on fire. I'd have to "stop,drop&roll".lol

Maybe after knee replacement, I don't know.I'd settle for a brisk walk.

Keep up the good work, next thing you'll be telling us is your doing a half marathon.

I hope after I get surgery I would be able to run. I always said it was over rated. But deep down I always wanted to just take off without feeling like in going to die

The little victories / accomplishments make you feel so good you only want more....then more.....

Before you know it your hooked! Doing things you never thought possible and loving every minute of it because of the great awards and good feelings it brings.

Self esteem...confidence....mental and physical health....and don't forget those endorphins !!!!

Pretty soon you cannot get enough of it and only feel bad - depressed when you DON'T get your workout in.....

      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.
