I'll go for both please :huggie:

As for the challenge, the area I have the hardest time in is exercise. I bought a pedometer, so I could try to count steps, but haven't been using it.. grrr. Because of the heat and stuff, I'm mostly swimming, but not regularly, I wanted to do 30 minutes of kicking in the pool (Since I'm camping at campsites with little pools packed full of kiddies laps are out, I just hang on to the side and kick like mad) every day, but its more like every 3rd day.

So exercise might be a good one for me, I have no idea if it will help motivate me or not. :P

Exercise would work good for me too. That is the one thing that I havnt quite gotten too, and I'm sure it would speed things up for me. So I can vote for that. Keep more ideas rolling in though.

BTW:I could easily burns some calories with Brad:kiss2: .

PCOS: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

You can do a search for it on the site; lots of stuff will pop up! (ie. rather than me repeating it all here!) LOL

Besides, off to work now!

      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.
