Sadistic, evil ones! Hah!!! Kicks, punches, sit ups with punches, wall squats with a "dummy" on your lap, etc...very fast paced and challenging!!!

Yay, I fought my sleepiness and got to the gym for day 3 this week. I didn't even attempt 45 laps today as Im extremely sore from changing up my normal workout. I did however work on my stroke, and even did a couple laps of dolphin kicks. Im sure I looked ridiculous...but oh well! One day I'll be able to do the beautiful butterfly stroke again :) I can already see attaining 2 miles by the end of the month not working. But, Im ok with that as long as I get my butt to the gym and workout to the best of my ability..be it pool or in the gym. I hope everyone has a good workout today :)

I currently exercise 3 days a week. My goal is to exercise 5 days a week in November.

Checking in for the week. Doing better tan expected. Elliptical last Friday, worked out with trainer on Sat, walked with a friend on Sunday, did wk 4, day 3 of C25k Monday, worked out with trainer and did wk 5,day 1 of C25K yesterday. Gym day today so either the Elliptical or more c25k. Hubby bought me a Bosu ball last night so that will probably get added to the mix when trainer comes over tomorrow.

4.85 miles in today. Feeling great with not a lot of knee pain. Total for the month now stands at 18.15 miles. It is supposed to rain tomorrow so looks like a recumbent bike day tomorrow.

Great job so far this month everyone! Keep it up and have fun!

:( It IS raining today! I need a recumbent bike for lunchtime for days like today. I don't work with a gym anywhere close enough to use one at lunch though. Guess that just means I'll have to stay on the elliptical twice as long tonight. I'm up to 19.6 miles MTD so far, I've done 553 squats (today is a rest day THANK GOD!!!), 120 incline pushups, and am up to a 45 sec plank.

      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.
