wisegrl....oh, ya know I was gonna join Curves, but I had to make an appointment to go in to look at the place...It felt weird..like why couldn't I just go in whenever I wanted and look at the machines. It made me think that I would have to have an appointment time to go do the workouts too!!! SOOOO....I bought a bowflex instead!!! I think you are really going to enjoy it!!! I really do.

I think once I get my routine going I will like it. It is just right now my routine is disturbed because I am learning and not really working out, so my hubby suggested I work out on my treadmill for about 20 minutes and then devote 20 more minutes to watching the video and learning the exercises. I guess it is more important that you learn the exercises the correct way and take your time than it does to just jump in it. I guess I am just anxious. I think the bowflex will actually be a better workout than Curves. Yeah, when you first check Curves out they do make you make an appointment. I didn't like that either.

Deanna,

I looked up your Revolution and it looks SWEET. I didn't see that one. Now I kind of wish I would of bought that one. It looks like it is easier to use.

It is a nice machine. I got it mainly because it had the leg press on it. I hate doing squats and lunges....HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT!!!! It is nice but big but I have the room in my basement. It is very very quiet too!!! I am just glad that I have something that I can do here at home, instead of having to go out and do it!!

I have a treadclimber. Right now it is just gathering dust. If I had it to do over again I would buy an eliptical. I will use it again when I have the energy and my feet and knees don't hurt so bad...maybe 20lbs from now.

      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.
