This is just the hardest month for me to get in any mileage!!! Last January I only managed a measly 12 miles! But I was recovering from a hysterectomy and my activity was pretty limited. It wasn't until march that numbers went up, and that was around 54 Miles.

So if I can beat that I'll be stoked . I don't walk daily (walking isn't very effective for me unless it's up a mountain with a pack on my back :P ), but I need to muster the energy to maybe climb the treadmill a bit further ....

And I do have a winter goal of doing a distance snowshoe....,maybe 10 Mike's, with a couple 1000 ft incline.... so we'll see ...

      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.
