Recommended Posts

Hmmm
Got it! It may have been too complex...
I *could* host another one. New phone arriving tomorrow. And o could make it very simplistic. I will see if there is a need/want for a March challenge.
Thanks for the feedback [emoji738][emoji738][emoji738]

A burpee is an AWFUL exercise move that blast the air right out of you! Just to do 5-10 will feel like death!

(really good for you)

Stand up, arms up, jump down into a plank, do a pushup, jump back up and jump, rinse, and repeat.

DAY 27: One day left in the challenge. I made my goal of losing 7 lbs! That may not seem like a lot, but I'll take it!😊 I had stalled for awhile and I think the different exercises made the difference. Yes, I still look like an uncoordinated chicken doing the jumping jacks. But I can do them!! The burpees continue to be a challenge, however I can do more of them now, then at the beginning of the challenge. I'm really proud of myself for getting out of my comfort zone of just walking for exercise.

Day 28... LAST DAY! LAST DAY LAST DAY!

  • No junk food since last check-in: CHECK! I will take it as a given that there will still be no junk food until midnight tonite :)
  • 1m plank + 1m side planks SORT OF. I did the minute regular plank, and I did about 20 seconds on my right side only. Screw the left side. I went to hot yoga this morning. I'm excused.
  • Public Self Loving #23 Selfie with "I love myself" sign: PASS.

Feb 1st weight: 168.2 lbs
Feb 28th weight: 158.8 lbs

Total weight loss in Feb: 9.4 lbs


Challenge Review:

  • CHECK! Complete No Junk food Challenge: I had zero junk this month. Though "no junk food" is more my normal way of eating anyway.
  • SO-SO. Complete Plank-Challenge (less the mountain climbers): I did not do all of them, as I missed probably 4 or 5 days, and there were days that I did attempt but did not complete. In all, I think I did more than I didn't do, and I'm ok with that. Also, I HATE PLANKS.
  • CHECK! Weight Loss Goal #1: 162.5 lbs : I reached 162.1 on Feb 23rd. Now I thought this would move me out of the obese category and into the "overweight" category, but apparently I am shorter than I thought I was so, for my actual height, I need to get under 158.7, which is a mere 0.1 lbs away...sooooooo close!
  • NOPE. Weight Loss Goal #2: 156.8 lbs : I wanted to get to this weight to weigh less than Mr., but it'll have to wait until next month.

Thanks again @GreenTealael for hosting this challenge :) but I'm never joining another plank challenge again.

Dear Team,

      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.
