100 pounds down today!



Recommended Posts

Thanks, everyone, for the encouragement! It is nice to be able to share with such supportive people!

Graylola, I try to do Water aerobics 1 hr a week, and go to the gym twice. When I am there, I do a variety of cardio exercises (walking on treadmill, recumbent bike, and elliptical) then weights. I am still a novice, so I just use the nautilus machines, eventually maybe I'll learn to do some exercises with free weights. I have been ramping up the amount of cardio I can do pretty quick as I get more fit. I started with 16 minutes the first visit to the gym, and am now up to an hour (20 min each on the 3 different types) and I'm working on upping the intensity or speed on each one.

Last week, it was more important to do some housecleaning than go to the pool!

Sorry, Amy while I would love to be on your team I'm about as far from Chicago as I possibly can be in the continental us. I live on the central Oregon coast.

      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.
