Great Job everyone! @Mikee57 nice pic!

I got in a nice long bike ride today in the beautiful St. Louis weather. My first longer ride of the year. Felt great. I think I'm doing a ride from St. Louis to Springield, IL ( 114 miles ) coming up the end of May, so I better get to logging some time in the saddle! Happy Sunday all.

Todays ride was a little over three hours.

Boxing class today. I felt adventurous and attempted a few things during the warm up and the core sections that previously I was afraid to do (bad knees and all). And I made it through the whole class with no breaks. Good day!

Great job have u been back to trx ?

Ran that treadmill drill work out again. I started. At 7.2 on treadmill for speed n ended workout at 8.0 my heart rate was at. 96% according to my heart rate monitor awesome workout today n then errands all day walking and such I'm gonna sleep like a baby tonight :)

Congrats....and You're fast! 8.0.....Thats a 7:30 mile! Just curious, how long do you stay at 96% max HR? I haven't been able to sustain that zone for long and am envious.

I went roller skating for the first time in over 25 years yesterday afternoon! It took a while getting the hang of it again but once I got my balance under control, I had a blast and skated over an hour with my two teenage sons!

      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.
