April '07 Bandsters: August Exercise Challenge



Recommended Posts

I pulled this thread from one of the other months. Thought it would make a good start for us.

It's challenge time:

Pick a target level for how often & how long you plan to workout,

and we’ll be off… I’m shooting for Level 2~Intermediate this month!

I am in!!! I am gonna shoot for Level 2, 18 days in August. I may only make it to Level 1, (14) because of a couple of trips I will be on. If I can hit anywhere between 14-18, I'll be happy!

OOpps, I didn't read it all. I would be at the advanced level, 60 min. I might be closer to elite, but I'll claim advanced. Can't believe I am advanced at exercise...but 60 min is my min since i've been off this summer!

      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?

      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.
