So for this week I got in 4 hours and 52 minutes of exercise sooo close to my 5 hour goal! Maybe I'll get on my stationary bike tonight and rock it out. Also tomorrow (Monday-Which I'm counting as the start of the new week) I'm planning on going to yoga and using the treadmill. I also have been going up and down between 209-211 lbs. Right now I'm at 210.2...trying to drink a lot of Protein Shakes and eat a lot of Protein Bars to break the stall! Hope everyone else had a great week! Can't wait to hear from you!

Thank you!! Great job to you as well. I know it's tough to find time to exercise especially when working so much overtime.

      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.
