Did you exercise when you were on the Pre-Op diet?



Recommended Posts

I didn't exercise until I came home from the hospital. I was to busy eating...Last Supper Syndrome.

Hey Sheila, I'm doing that too! I start the pre-op on Monday. I think it serves its purpose because I am getting so sick of all these sugary, fat laden foods!

BTW - you are doing great!

Thank you! I know what you mean, I must admit I got tired of ALL the eating! Some days I wish I could eat one meal like before, I mean without all the chewing and chewing and chewing!

Yeah I wonder about that too. I am not a very good chewer and I have tried "practising", but then get bored of it and give up! Also, I find when you have to chew so much, the food loses its taste.

I did the same...I get grossed out sometimes from all the chewing. I eat more soft foods and drink a lot of Water, Crystal Light and juice. I'm scared because I don't get my Protein in:eek: .

Well, Protein is important but look how well you are doing!!!!! 5 lbs to Onderland!!! you rock. So do you exercise now? what do you do?

Thanks! Yes I workout everyday. On Mon and Tues I do strength training and toning and I walk 3 1/2 miles on Tues, Thurs, Sat and Sun at this VERY hilly park. If it rains I walk 2 miles on my treadmill on those days...I love the outside, so getting on the treadmill is a hassle:( .

That's fabulous. I worked out 5 days a week last year when I was losing weight. I will definitely try my best this time.

My hubby works out of town a lot and no children YET, but my dog Buddy just plays. So it is different for me.

Then this is a great time in your life to be doing this. I know there are lots of people in my situation - I just have to make it a priority. The nice things is as the weather gets better here in Toronto (Canada), we will get out our bikes and go for rides together.

What kind of dog is Buddy?

That sound really good, I want a bike. I have an exercise bike, but I never use it. Buddy is a Schnauzer mixed with Shitzu. He is EXTREMELY smart.
