What kind of elliptical do you have? I've been thinking of buying one but not sure what to get?

It's a Nordic track E5-si, bought it 3 or 4 years ago at sears. Nothing fancy but definitely makes me break a sweat!!!! I'd rather be outside walking or riding but it's sooooo hot!!!!!

Back to walking. My doctor said I might want to skip Water aerobics until they find out what happened with the whole stroke symptom thing I had....probably wise.

Ok not much but ran up and down the stairs 5 times.

Do you have any idea how many calories you burned just by doing that? Good job to you.

Took my fat little dachshund for a long walk today. And guess what? He's not that fat anymore! He's looking more like a handsome dachshund than a baby fur seal. Lol

This thread motivated me today. I had my pj day but then got up and went to the high school track near me and walked it 4 times at a brisk pace. I haven't walked a track in about 30 yrs. I feel great!

I swam 2 laps in the pool three days this week in Montana, on vacation at Glacier Falls National Park. Walked a bit too. We were 3 crippled old ladies on vacation. Had a great time, sightseeing, on a boat tour, and a helicopter ride (i think i just squeaked on board) and ski lifts. I rang a japanese gong for luck and held a barn owl in Birds of Prey rehab center near Lethbridge, canada. My IPhone became totally useless in canada, i messed it up. What a great week!

      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.
