Recommended Posts

September 2nd

a.m. mowed lawn

p.m. third day of second week of couch to 5k program!!!

p.m. one mile roller blading

p.m. leg strength training on bowflex

I had injured my shoulder/back last Tuesday and my arm has been in really bad spasms and pain since then. I have not done any arm strength training this whole last week. I think it is finally getting better. It did not hurt at all today and today that was the first day that is did that. So, a couple more days of rest and I may not have to go to the doctor after all. I think it was from carrying my backpack. I may have to revert to my wheelie backpack. It is such a pain though. Especially climbing up and down stairs.

9/1 - 40 minutes with personal trainer (strength training)

20 minute walk

Met with personal trainer for 1st time on Saturday, was supposed to work out for 60 minutes, only got to 40, then blacked out! Not sure exactly what the reason was, could have been slightly dehydrated, but the next day I was so sore. I couldn't even get out of bed. That's gotta be a good sign!

      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.
