Went into my Zumba class this morning. I had been gone for a week due to minor toe surgery. One gal who is always there told me I looked fantastic and how did my stomach get so flat! I was thrilled!!! Now granted, my stomach is not flat. After 11 babies, it will never be flat without surgery. But when I started Zumba earlier this year, I looked like I was 6 months pregnant. I was so flattered that this woman would comment to me about my tummy!! I told her it was Zumba. That is pretty much the only exercise I do. 3-5 times a week. I love it!

Living the dream!!!,

Hold up can we just take a moment. I am stuck on the 11 babies part. WOW!!! I have 2 and I praise anyone with more than that. All the schedules and homework and just making sure they are okay. WOW!!! my hats off to you.

I do want to try Zumba. I watch the info-mercial all the time. I seriously sit and watch info-mercials as if they were real shows on tv. LOL my hubs says I am weird but funny thing is he now sits and watches them with me, LOL so the jokes on him. You have inspired me. Not for the 11 babies, LOL but to try Zumba.

I love my zumba class. I have been taking for exactly one month. I noticed how much smaller my waist has become. It does transform your body!!!!! I can so relate to this.. :)

What a blessing to have had 11 babies, congrats on that alone! I have 5 and they are a treasure.

I havn't tried Zumba yet but I think I am going to test out the weekly class at our library to see if I like it. It looks fun!

      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.
