Checking in. Breakfast was actually at home. Yogurt and almonds. lunch was a chopped salad with chicken and bacon and balsamic dressing, and I passed on the bread.

At the computer store now. Maybe an open house this afternoon.

Quick hello and update. I have been staying at my Mom's with no internet. She is having surgery on Monday and hoping things can return to near normal. We are carrying on with the WL plan and cooking good things. I have a chicken roasting and nice crisp salad made. Lot's to do and glad to be busy. The sun is shining. Many good thoughts coming your way as you paddle through your journey! HUGS!

Hey peeps.. My eating plan was modified a bit. I did not eat my turkey dinner, it smelled weird. Homie don't play round with that. So instead I grabbed another granola bar and a cheeseburger and peeled the bun off and converted it to bird food.. :rolleyes:

LOTS OF Water TODAY!!

I walked at work over an hour. Had truck issues again today. Transmission stuck in gear on the semi. I got back to the yard late, and when I did I had a flat on my Honda (aka da beater with a heater). So we did not get to the YMCA. I did do 35 minutes of E-Kill. Thank you Skillit/ T-Mac and Third day!

Tomorrow I am going to try to walk a 3 miler before church.

CHALLENGE TIME CHALLENGE TIME CALLENGE TIME

So here it is I'm callin all ya'll out for a challenge. I made a commitment that I would get a total of at least 6 miles of ground pounding walking a week.

So my challenge has two parts.

1. Match me or out do me on the walk for the week. Monday to Sunday this week. Now as much as I like the fit bit things tracking your every step, the 6 miles has to come outside of your every day routine. Treadmills are ok just add a mile that way you don't cheat yourself!!

2. Sign up this week for a 5k or better walk. All major cities will have one about every weekend. Lets get one in by say end of May!

Now before you say "I can't" do that please spend a few minutes with the below links.

My daughter's computer is a bust and she lost her data. Data recovery could cost $700-$1700 and so that's not going to happen. We're buying her a new laptop tomorrow.

Ended the day at Red Lobster but it was fine. I had lobster and salad and veggies and skipped the biscuits and drinks. Feeling good.

I've never done a 5k in my life. I'm not going to overthink this. Just say YES and DO it!!

@@JustWatchMe Rock on girl. I love the "just say yes and do it!" attitude! When we were young we'd jump in just about anything. Now we get a few miles on us and we have to overthink stuff. Doing something good for our bodies, especially something that will push us, should be a no brainer!

Meals planned, Water will be consumed, I take the weekends off from exercise.

@@bacon - I'm with you on the exercise and will have to look into the 5k.

My surprise last night was a concert with some of my favorite artists - Chris Tomlin, 10th Avenue North, & Rend Collective. It was SO good and my husband scored points for the thoughtful surprise for an early birthday gift.

We are off to church and a lazy afternoon after a very late night last night, esp with the time change. I feel a nap coming on...

Have a swell day and take care of you!!

Sorry I've been awol. I have been off the computer most of the weekend.

We went to a movie yesterday and I decided to e a pig. I had popcorn and candy. Then, later for dinner, I had maybe 3/4 cup of Mongolian beef from the Chinese restaurant.

@@s_suther, thanks for asking about me, I am doing well.

Today I have not been very hungry:

coffee

About 3 oz. hamburger patty with a slice of cheese on it and bacon

1 slice snickerdoodle cake

1 cup of left over Mongolian Beef

Not the most healthy, but at least it wasn't a ton of food!

      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.
