Pedometer you mean, yep they are good if you get a good one and they aren't expensive from Amazon. I prefer the Yamax, mine is a CW700 but they all seem good. Its nice to monitor your progress, set targets etc.

Hi Sandy, yes I use the fitbug too, its good. I completed the fitbug race from Beijing to London (not really that distance but still a long way) by walking 330 km (about 200 miles). I covered 4 to 9 miles per day, great fun. Yes I like the fitbug and its fun to download but I don't bother withfood etc but sure it must be useful, providing an overall fitness and body plan. Good luck.

Not bad, does more than fitbug, looks good. I use the Ipad app TargetWeight which does a similar sort of thing, all these are really useful for measuring your progress. I try to walk more than 10,000 steps per day but its the time that takes that really ho

ds me back, the U.K. weather doesn't help either :-)

      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.
