Hump Day! Wednesday....what you doin?



Recommended Posts

Happy Hump Day everyone! It's past noon here in NY, so we are the down slide into the weekend!!! Wooo HOOO now if I can only stay awake!

The cold weather is really taking it out of me! Inside it's warm, almost too warm, and I am falling asleep as I thaw out!! Day dreaming of Hawaii and walks on the beach....snorkeling with the fishes and not busting out of my swim suit.

What's motivating you today?

It's cold in the midwest and our computer servers are running slow. Instead of eating the junk food that is in the break room. I am going to do a 30 min workout in my office. I recently discover that I can access you tube from work and it's not running slow.... For now. :D

I am being a lazy bum still in my PJ's at 4, cooking dinner for my hubby. It got a little chilly here in Florida last night so I don't want to go outside. If ever my fibromyalgia will ever let me exercise again I would love to. For now just trying to keep my head above Water. If anyone would have told me a year ago that I would not be able to go to my regular job because of my fibro I would have called them a liar. Oh well hells bells no use crying over spilled milk. Hopefully going back to work at a new job next week.

I didn't want to...but I went to the gym and got my 40 min walk in before the muscle heads and my boss arrived. Just finishing up as he was snapping a towel at my ass to get my attention :)

The muscle heads....yeah you can just see them saying "I pick things up and put them down". It's either that or the orgasm patrol that ugh and ooo and ahhh ooo mmmm through ever set. Thank God for noise canceling headphones!!!

Big doings today for me. I was on the subway twice. I haven't been on the subway in three years. Between the crowds and the stairs, I stopped a long time ago and stayed above ground. But anyone who knows Manhattan, knows that this time of the year especially, the streets are almost totally gridlocked and if you want to get anywhere quickly, you have to take the subway. I gave it a shot and did great even with the crowds. I still have the cane so I got a seat and people let me get out even when the train was full. And I walked up two flights when I got to my stop. Wasn't winded at all. The last time I did those stairs, I thought I'd pass out because I was huffing and puffing so bad. Today was a good day.

I had a very busy day for my first day of the preop diet. It was great to keep busy. Lots of errands and a last appointment with the surgeon before the surgery next week. Motivation isn't too hard just yet. Plus, the hubby is doing my preop diet with me just to show support. Love him!

      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.
