Okay, mileage is up to 100.9...yay broke 100! Goal for the month is 175 at least...

I'm anticipating that Thanksgiving will put a damper on my intense workout schedule as we will be traveling for the holiday and out of the "norm" routine. I'm making part of my challenge this month to at least walk or do something active while we are on break...even if it's not the gym routine that I follow.

Got a pair of holes today and the workout was not even that bad. These are from snatches and toe-to-bars today after 75 pull-ups and 6000 m rowing workout yesterday. I like working out to the tune of pulling exercises with my hands, but could do without the holes. :) Ouchie!!

hmmm, yeah. It is pretty normal when doing a lot of exercises on a bar, even when using chalk. Boy my hands are ugly!! Lol.

Yes, I actually got some nifty gloved a couple days ago designed for pullups, but after trying them out, I was not feeling the love. I think they need to be broken in a bit. You ever see those gloves that have % fingers and partially just cover the part of your hand that comes in contact with the bar? Next time.... I think these will take about 2 weeks to heal up.

Oh having a sniffly snuffly cold makes working out less than a barrel of fun! My philosophy is if it is not a virus, then it is not a workout killer. I came back from a business trip on Wednesday and picked up something kind of nasty at the airport that struck hard after the run workout I did that day. Already took 4 days when traveling and didn't want to miss any more days.

. Today, I feel much better and have been flushing myself with Water and chomping extra Vitamins. Think it helped, but who knows...

      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.
