That's cool that both are going thru this journey together.

I had to re-focus on my exercise, yesterday in the afternoon I was watching tv and told myself that I needed to do some workout. It's been colder outside so it's hard for me to get into the working out mode. Anyway, I got my taebo videos out and did my 45 min workout yesterday????✌????️

I've been really struggling with exercise too but we are remodeling our house to put it on the market so I do manual labor instead. I'll get back to it soon though.

I used to have the old taebo videos, the ones from 1990's. You know when I had the surgery I remembered how much I enjoyed the taebo video exercise so I went online ordered the DVDs thru Amazon and guess what is the old one the one that it had the instructional, basic and 8 min workout. It comes in one dvd and it only cost me 7.99 I love it!

My day has been good, we went to the Apple Store to get my laptop fix. However, traffic is crazy with all the people shopping for Christmas. We went to chick filet to eat and I had the grilled chicken nuggets. They were good and 140 calories, not bad. I also took a Protein Shake cause I new I was going to be out for more then 4 hours.

What is everyone doing for thanksgiving dinner? I have 2 college kids, a daughter and a son and my 8 year old son. Well, they already made a list of the food they want and everything is very high in calories and carbs.

My son wants tamales which he gets home tomorrow so I made them already. For thanksgiving dinner they wants ribs, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese (homemade) and fried corn. My goodness I will need to be very careful. Oh and Desserts. My family don't like much the turkey, only me I guess. Well I will make sure I have a Protein shake on hand. ????????

      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.
