June 2019 challenge



Recommended Posts

I’m not a huge fan of these “self love” parts. I’ll give it a whirl.

I’m resilient, funny, realistic, competitive, open minded, accepting, empathetic, sympathetic, progressive and forgiving.

I am however d.r.e.a.d.i.n.g. Going to the gym today. The strength aerobic class I have been taking is in an hour and I’m thinking of every excuse in the book to miss it. My plan is to suck it up and go, I’ll keep you posted. Feel free to shame me into going! 😁

I will do the squats afterwards.

I’m going to do #12 on days when I don’t care for the challenge. (I’m looking at you #11.)

I've been traveling for work so just hoping in now.

I was sleeved on 2/7/19

My goals for this month are

-Lose 10 pounds (that seems to be what I average in a month)

-Do 3 sessions of Bridge 2 10K each week. I just started yesterday with my first session. I'm training to run in a DC Comics 10K run this fall.

Good luck everyone with your June goals!

Was slacking on these, so I caught up on them all this morning .... yay me!

Need to get a walk in today so I can meet my goal #2, of walking at least a mile, a majority of days.

Herro herro. Surgery date 11/1/2018, RNY, SW: 286lbs, CW: 177lbs.

June-specific goals:

1) Reach 170? Eh? EHHHH? lol

2) Consistently go to the gym 4 times per week.

Yesterday was leg-day at the gym, but I think I can manage 20 squats today.

Ok, I compromised. I went to the gym but I did cardio instead of the class. I don’t know why I am so reluctant, the regular instructor is back today and I like her. I’ll go again, it is a good workout.

I did 30 minutes of cardio, 20 squats and I’m going for a 30 minute walk this afternoon to atone for my avoidance.

Pretend I went to the class @ms.sss !

That is a nice long walk, I get bored after a mile or 2. I need to find a better spot. Today off to the gym at 11 followed by the core class. Odds are we will do limb raises, however if we don’t I’ll add those in later.

#5. I’m a worrier so this could take all day. 😬

      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.
