πŸ’œ SEP 2019 CHALLENGE πŸ’œ



Recommended Posts

10. Well, I did get my 65 squats for yesterday done and my 70 for today. I did also get my exercise in and there was some walking involved so I shall count that as a walk taken. I will also probably do some walking around the front yard with the puppy when I get home for training purposes.

As far as my glutes go, I just don't want them to be flat. So far so good. :)

B-Side Question:




Which flavors best describes Fall to you?




I always think of pumpkin, apple cider and maple


Definitely apple cider.

I’m so frustrated. Just checked the weather forecast and we’re at 90+ degree days for at least another 10 days.
Guess we can have fall in October?

Day 10

I wish I could take a picture of me actually sweating buckets from 70 squats done!![emoji27][emoji27][emoji27][emoji27] OMG!!!! Heart rate went to 150 bpm!!! Lol!!!

Took a walk around the sports court of hospital grounds! Very random thing to do and I have never done it before. It was very nice and I was able to get some steps in[emoji106]

Flavor of fall? Definitely pumpkin spice and for some reason nutmeg [emoji848]πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

11. 75 squats done. I'm considering scheduling a massage for my spa time.

Bside. Fall doesn't have a flavor for me. It does smell of fallen leaves and woodsmoke though.

Oh yes! Fall definitely has a scent

As a child it used to be crunchy oak leaves, hot chocolate on brisk mornings, pencil shavings and paper

Now its baking sweet potatoes, apple orchards, steamy boiling Water, wool and leather

12. Rest day for my butt! Yay! But honestly, I did go to the gym so not entirely a rest day. I don't see myself doing any hobbies today but I will try to do so over the weekend.

Bside - I think my new habit is the gym. I was thinking about it earlier...I think I could count on one hand how many days I've not actually not gotten any exercise. I'm addicted to exercise! So funny. Another new habit is tracking everything I eat. I have had this habit before but I plan to keep it now...well until my eating is out of my hands.

I’m on an every other day schedule it seems with the squats.

Day 11. Spa time: I took a long shower lol

Day 12: Hobby. The past few weeks I’ve turned into the DIY queen around the house. The bathroom job just kept getting bigger, so today looks like I’m going to put up new baseboard. It’s turning out nice, I’m pretty proud of myself!

B side: New habits. I walk everyday and workout at least 3 days a week. I also am organizing EVERYTHING in my house. I feel like a need a clean slate and I’m getting rid of clutter and stuff I just don’t need.

      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.
