Old Trainer/new Trainer



Recommended Posts

the other day i met with trainer i had years ago. she said i looked great etc. etc. - can't hear that enough. but, turns out she is quitting, and i was her last client - go out with the best, right???

yesterday met w/new trainer/ a guy. he was amazing - all trainers teach differently, he was much stricter/kept me busy, "break" between exercises weights we walked the track - it was great, heart kept beating away. very excited to continue - next class on saturday.

its been a long time since i did the eliptical, used to do it for 45 minutes. did 5 minutes yesterday!!! OMG i have to get back on that horse, slowly

should have done this months ago, never too late - this is the beginning of a journey with exercise, something i knew i should have done long time ago. not gonna beat myself over the head, past is past.

NEWBIES - start exercising as soon as you are allowed - walking is always good at the beginning

if you've been sleeved for a while, its never too late too start exercising

I am so proud of you! Yep, your exercising that sexy body of yours! Yayyyyyyyyyyyy!

I need to stop thinking about it and just do it. Today was going to go walking but it's raining and I have a client at noon today. What a beautiful excuse not to exercise. Right? Anyways, I'm going to the mall to walk. Yep.

You are a inspiration to me, I envy all the people that exercise on a daily basis, I needs to be me. :)

I say start exercising before you are sleeved! Even though I was heavy I always worked out and I believe this is why I had such an easy recovery. Plus, I had a lot of muscle already built up under all the fat!:)

I also agree with you that working out at any time is a plus. Have fun with your new trainer!

      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.
