I hired a personal trainer and met her this morning. She had great ideas and was excited to work with me as I would be her first vertical sleeve client. She went home and researched what would be best for me due to the fact of the small amount of calories I intake vs cardio eating them all up... we get all set up to start full force this week and I get a text tonight from her saying the gym closed it doors!!! I feel bad for all the employees as they didn't see this coming and mad for me because I finally decided to incorporate a r:eal exercise program in my life and it gets yanked out from under me!!!! Grrrrr.... frustrated

Hi you have her number so why not agree to her still doing the training with you out of the gym. That way you still have someone you are happy with and she still has some money coming in while finding a job

Hahaha..... I just read this??? I had come home from a 16 hour shift, took an ambien ( sleeping pill) and went to sleep.

I get home tonight and see this as one of my posts!! Have no memory of writing this last night. Gotta love ambien! I also have ordered many many items on groupon while in an ambien deep sleep. Sorry for anyone who tried to read that, I can't even understand it.

      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.
