I, LosingJusme, will be running in the Walt Disney World Marathon in January 2009.

"they say" (whoever they are) that you need to publish your goals and be accountable, so here i am.

Wow, what an incredible goal.

I really believe you have discovered the secret to successful and lasting weight loss - having a goal that is weight related but not ABOUT your weight.

You will do this, I know you will.

OMG Losing!! That is amazing!!! You will be so proud of yourself. Will you be running to raise money for a cause, or just running to show yourself you can? :confused:

I am so impressed hon , it makes my flipping 1 minute then rest a minute on the cross trainer pale in comparison!!

I will be rooting for you!!

thanks ... posting it definitely makes it more "real" ...

i think i am addicted to running though. i'm actually crazy enough to think about running the "Minnie (as in mouse) marathon" in May 08. it's only 15KM/9 miles, but i will need some sort of training base for the wacked out 26.2 miles in Jan09... might as well be that.

the good thing about the WDW marathons, you only need to have a 15-17 minute mile (4 - 3.something MPH). technically, you could do it walking - and some have.

im soo excited. it gives me something to strive for ... either running on the dreadmill (i can chant M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E over and over) or eating well ... same chant ... nice distraction! :confused:

      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.
