Do any of you have Fit Bits? I had a zip and just got the flex...if you have one let me know so we can form a group in the app and do the weekly step challenges!

i have a fitbit flex, but my steps are super low. I spend hours at a time sitting (seeing clients, reading journal articles, 4 hour daily commute, etc). I used to get in only about 2k a day... my current goal is 5k.

If anyone else has a fit bit let me know. We have a nice little group of sleevers and lapbanders for the weekly challenges which is a GREAT motivation for exercise. Hope everyone is having an awesome week!

How was everyone's week? I beat my 5 hour goal with NINE hours of exercise!!! I also had a personal training session at a bootcamp gym that is hosting a 21 day challenge that I signed up for. I'm going to start it 2/27. My weight has been the same between 205-209...but I can tell that I'm losing inches. Hope you all had a great week!

Weight 176. Not moving too much on the scale this week. Maybe it's from muscles due to exercise 4 hours again this week. Yeah us.

      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.
