October Exercise Challenge



Recommended Posts

Stefanie, you are too funny. That sounds like when I found my hip bones.

I did 30 minutes yesterday and 30 minutes this morning, for a total of 60 so far.

Thank you! I've always considered myself "The Queen of Sarcasm". Funny sounds better. LOL

Yeah, I totally know what you mean about finding your hip bones. (Though hubby is not crazy about that. He thinks my goal weight is way too low.) I am waiting for my clavicle (collar bone) to start showing! I don't have a lot there now, so hopefully it will become a little more pronounced before vacation and the formal dresses!

I'd love to join in but I'm not sure what the rules are. I just purchased an elliptical machine and it should be here next week. I started walking Sunday. I've walked 1 hour a day for the last two days.

Yes, please join! There are no rules. Just figure up how many minutes of excercise you want to complete by the end of the month and post it here. MM keeps track of us all, bless her! You can post as often as you like. Some people post the number of minutes they do for that day, and some people post their total for the month so far. It's totally up to you.

HEY ALL!!!!!!!!!

Just wanted to report in. The bootcamp yesterday was a killer. I woke up this morning and could barely put my bra on. Went to the gym to work out the soreness and it helped for a little while. Maybe tomorrow I can recoop some more before the next camp workout on Thurs.

Oh by the way my 1st fill is tomorrow. Will I be able to do a strenuous workout the next day?? Surely, the fill won't affect my ability to workout.

Hey Stephanie if your reading this I wanted to tell you that

Dr. Marsden banded me also on 8/31. It's a small world.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good for you on working the soreness out instead of laying out alltogether! No, a fill shouldn't preclude you from working out the next day. I make my fill appointments early and I go straight from the office to the gym, no problem! You'll see...a fill is usually no big deal. If you are getting yours in Hurst, Amy will be doing it and watch out! She had me laughing last time with that big needle in my gut! She's a ham! It didn't hurt though, just freaked me out a little to be belly-laughing while she was doing that. Do you live in Hurst? And now I'm curious about your bootcamp...is it at River Legacy? My sis did that one a while back and I was thinking about it, but I can't run to save my life!

      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.
