I think I am going to actually make the challenge. I haven't been keeping up on documenting but I am getting in a workout at least every other day. It is hard now that I am back on liquids again. I just don't seem to have any energy now.

Hi Crazy Ates,

Excellent thread -- and highly motivating!!!

I just returned from workout #7 -- I joined the challenge rather late in the month so I will definitely be doing extra workouts to make up for lost time.

Have a great week!!!

Salsa, you're doing a great job of getting the exercise in even with your busy schedule. I hope you're back on solids and feeling more energetic. Keep up the good work.

I walked for 1 hr. 15 minutes today. My new walking shoes are great!

I am feeling better and back on solid foods. Things still seem to get stuck, but as long as I eat really slow and chew a bizillion times, I seem to be okay. There are some days that I just can't eat solids so I just do liquids. At least I know my 17,000$ is working:clap2:. I walked last night for 35 minutes. I MADE THE CHALLENGE!

      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.
