I did five mornings in the gym for cardio this week! Today, no gym. Instead, I will be mowing the lawn. Exercise, but not that much fun. Tonight, I'm looking to have some mini-golf fun. My doctor gave me the go ahead to do what I want in the gym, so I think I will start doing weights 3 or 4 nights a week. That added to my five mornings a week of cardio should do wonders for my weight loss goals.

Today, I'm down 37 lbs. since I started my pre-surgery diet less than a month ago.

Ran 4.97 miles on the elliptical this morning. Then walked up and down the stairs at work quite a bit dealing with bad kids again. Came home walk the puppies for one-mile. Then went to the gym and lifted weights for about 45 minutes. Busy day!

I took this morning off from the gym. I needed the sleep! I'm getting ready to take the puppies for a walk now.

Started the day with 45 minutes on the stair master (arc trainer) at the gym. Then walked around the Magic Kingdom at Disney until the rain started. Now I'm heading home for my 5 oz. lunch.

20 km run today...my longest thus far. Getting ready to do a HM next month.

http://connect.garmin.com/activity/448787249

AND IT ALL STARTED WITH ONE! No matter where you are in the fitness ranks....NEVER, ever give up.

NO one...NO one, NO one starts out by being fit. Its a process. You Just do what you can do...and then you do it again..and again.

100% true statement here... My goal was 19km at a 10 min pace today. As I started today, I didn't know if I would get through the first 5k....my mind just wasn't ready.....THEN, some good music came on, remembering where I was 7 months ago tomorrow ( my first run in 20+ years), and remembering some of the motivation from this site from several different folks.

Happy Friday everyone! Enjoy your weekend....I'm going to! :)

Today was one of those days.....went to gym ay 6 am....while in the locker room changing my clothes, I decided I just did not have it today.....so I spent a good 45 minutes in the sauna (think I fell asleep)....then 30-40 minutes in the HOT whirlpool...shave and shower...fresh clothes.....ordered a Protein shake from the juice bar before heading home....

No workout....after going at it day after day sometimes you just have to shut down....and that's exactly what I did...and still doing...

That was at 6am, now it is 3pm and I feel a little guilty and I'm ready to go back..but perhaps it is better to do nothing today....

It happens....

      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.
