Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

6th - 12th June. Pledge your points!



Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone and Welcome,

This thread is for everyone who needs motivation and encouragement to get moving and to help make us accountable to ourselves and one another.

The Plan is to draw up a new thread each week, running from Sunday to Saturday.

You are awarded "Points" for exercise and everyone works to their own ability.

You get 1 Point for every 10 minutes of exercise.

You choose whatever activity you wish.

Each week you pledge your points on board - making a committment to achieve them, and then you strive all week to achieve your own goal.

You keep your own score and at the end of the week you must let us all know just how well you did.

Hopefully, this will be FUN!

We are looking for EVERYONE to join in, so come on and Pledge your points!

Hi All,

I am pledging 15 points this week, that is 150 minutes of exercise/activity for the week.

I forgot to post last week, but managed to think about moving/exercise all the same.

I notice the more I get out and about the less time I spend on the computer!

Come on and join in...everyone welcome.

Hi Crafty chris.

Glad to see you join me here.

I have reached my goal of 15 points this week.

I will now open a new thread for next week and you can make your committment there.

It is great to have some company as we move and shake and strut our stuff!

      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.
