Hang in there. I've had several days like that and I felt like I was being "lazy" even though I was in so much pain I couldn't walk! I had to give myself a stern talking to. You'll be back when you can.

Thanks, I hope this is over quickly! I really haven't been sick much since surgery and it just feels awful! Lol

I love when you post about riding your bike. Not only have I forgotten how to ride one, but I'm very self conscious of trying to learn again. I read your posts and it gives me hope that I too may be out there some day in my bike :)

Shreveport? I'm going to a wedding there tomorrow. My SIL and her husband live in bossier city.

Dang...wish I had seen this post. I would have met up with you just to say hello and shake the hand of the man that inspired me to get my arse moving by issuing a challenge. Hope you had a good time.

Hey everyone! Hope everyone had as great a weekend as I did. I didn't get in a bike ride in like I was hoping...oh well. I got in 2 miles on Saturday and 3 miles today. That puts me at 8.85 miles for the month so far. Time to step it up and kick it into the next gear! Have a great week everyone!!

I didn't get any workout swimming in this weekend, but I didn't plan on it. I did take my nieces, nephew, and son to the pool today, and I chased then around the pool for a few hours. I actually felt guilty because I never did that for my son when he was younger :(

I swam on Friday and had a fantastic swim, doing a mile plus 4-8 laps (can't wait until my lap counter arrives!!). 33 laps is a mile so Im really happy with my progress. The kicker...Im looking forward to Monday morning to get my swim on!

No, I have too big of a head and too much hair lol I use expensive chlorine remover Shampoo and an expensive conditioner. My hair stylist has me wet my hair and put a little conditioner in my hair before I get in the pool and also I do a home olive oil treatment weekly on my hair (I also don't color my hair).

It's worth it because I have bad ankles and the pool lets me work as hard as I want, and Im still able to walk afterwards lol

Although the rate this is going, I'll be bald from Hair loss pretty soon and won't have to worry about it anyway. Sigh.

      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.
