 4. Tell us about your favorite winter activities

I can’t believe it’s December 3rd!

Personal Goal is to maintain my weight which seems to settle at 125-127 unless I eat peanut butter!

My favorite winter activity is avoiding the cold weather. Considering I grew up in Wisconsin and live in N. Illinois it can be a full time job.

Day 1: I woke up at 4:45am to go to the gym and when I opened the blinds, it was totally darkness[emoji57][emoji6]

Day 2: Rather than Netflix, I binged watched a newly discovered show on Amazon Prime and I am absolutely captivated!! Didn't make it to bed until past midnight which is mini suicide for me given how early I had to be up!🥴🥴🥴

Day 3: Ate a few Maltesers (chocolate balls) today! So so unnecessary and counterproductive I know! But I enjoyed it[emoji3]🤷‍♀️


Yoga
I've been very invested in lounges and leg up poses because it's the easiest I can do🤭

Deedee your BMI (32) is listed automatically under your weight on this site since you entered your weight and height on your public profile.

Thanks so much@Cheeseburgh. I meant my current BMI (PS I was being lazy to get on a BMI calculator!![emoji13]) I always have to go on my desk/laptop to update my weight because I don't know how to do it on the phone app (or if it's possible to do) so I don't often.
For my current weight, my BMI is 30.8
I will update when I find the time to use my laptop🤦‍♀️[emoji3]

B-Side Question: Do you get enough sleep?
Lol!! NO! To put it succinctly! Not nearly enough sleep!

Day 4:
I've definitely added more to my bucket list as I lose weight [emoji28]

3. So I ate some Peppermint Bark and I did Triangle, Warrior, Downward Dog, High Lunge, and Forward Fold as part of my routine last night.

4. Not sure what's on my bucket list right now. I do try to take care of them as opportunities arise...like when I went to Wyoming this past Summer. I will do some more yoga tonight...maybe add leg up, malasana, and cobbler. I have to create a 50 minute class for this weekend.

I had redi whip on my Decaf for dessert.

Bucket list is something that changes a lot for me.

I really like the guided meditation on the Calm app. I do that about 4 days a week.

      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.
