Recommended Posts

No way Jose. I'm a barefoot wild wilderness explorer. I cannot wear the big clunky shoes any more. I've tried....it hurts. Every step I feel my knees age six months.

Ok...LV....for your viewing pleasure.

When you asked me If I wanted to see something dirty.....

I didn't know it was going to be a picture of your foot !! :P

Jeez I can't believe I posted a pic of my dirty foot.

How is your toe (foot) feeling today? The injury looks mighty painful and I can only imagine the psychological setback when you are having to put your running (and walking) to the wayside. How long did the doctor say before you can run safely again?

Thanks for asking fiddle. He basically told me to give it 6 weeks. I told him I would, starting September 30th.... the day I have my TT. It will get plenty of rest then. This isn't my first broken toe. My only problem right now is getting my shoes on. I'm going to give it till Monday or Tuesday and see how it feels. Hopefully by then it will be bearable enough to finish out the month.

It's been a rough week for me (not as rough as BTB) but I haven't felt good since Wednesday. I think lack of sleep is partially to blame. 4 hours and I'm wide awake (this is new since surgery). Anyhoo, I didn't get out much Wed, Thurs or Fri. But since I was awake at 8:30am this morning I went ahead and went for a run. Just 1 mile today.

Total for the month so far 25 :( better then nothing I guess.

You're right.... Every little bit is a victory. Keep going as long as you can, but listen to your body. Lack of rest is worse than lack of exercise.

      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.
