Are you looking for exercises or fun things to do? Or both?

Both. Mainly anything that keeps me up and moving and burning calories.

Yes, I do dumbbells, LOVE to put on great music and dance!!

Online videos are not an option. Only internet we have is expensive, has a data cap that is VERY difficult to stay under, unused data doesn't roll over, but they charge an arm & a leg if we go over.

It's just that I have A LOT of energy, can't work due to disability, have to do things for short periods or it increases my pain level. I do help a friend in her deli about 10 hours a week. I only sleep about 6 hours a day, so have A LOT of time to try and fill.

Candidate, I love Lacy Mucklow's books which you can get on Amazon. I also like the Zentangle books - also can be found on Amazon. I also like to do Mandalas. While you can get coloring books with mandalas, you can also find tons of these and other adult coloring pages to print off the computer! I also like to play with different kinds of coloring instruments. If you have a Christian background, you should check out the Illustrated Faith Website! So cool!

I love to colour!

I also like to paint rocks, which I haven't done in a while.

Let our creative juices flow........................

I am allergic to housework, but you could always do a task like sweep the porch, fold some clothes, wipe down the shower, etc.

Absolutely! I'm very OCD about cleaning, but it's just me to clean up after, so that runs out..............

Can you bottle some of that energy for me? I could sure use it for my house. ;)

      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.
