I did my 3 mile outside walk today. I flew through it from running on my treadmill so much. It felt so good!! I am back to 202.8 as well!! Maybe I am getting on the "band" wagon....FINALLY:whoo::whoo:

One more day of walking and exercise is over. Today I got in a 4 mile walk ( quick paced) and 45 min in the home gym. Got a new Sansa mp3 player and loaded it up with my fav walking/workout music. What a motivational help.....

I made it! Yesterday we walked for about 5 hours straight and amazingly I didn't feel like I was going to die. We parked our car on one side of the town and did all of our window shopping and browsing and walked almost all the way across town and then back. It was fun and my BF needs some exercise too. Seems as if he is finding the pounds that I lose!

Hi Everyone

I thought I would start a December exercise challenge thread -- until Band Chick is able to put a new one up.

Good luck and Happy Holidays to all!!!

In the gym at 8:30 today. Did three miles on the eliptical, was only able to do 1/4 mile when first starting out, and also did the strength weights circuit. Banded 8/29, 237lbs, now 181.

Way to go everyone. I am getting ready for the last day of the year walk and will try for 6-8 miles this morning. I missed the weight goal by a few, but thats not stopping me at all. Just another hurdle to jump...LOL

I did drop another lb, so I need to update my ticker ( I love that thing) once I get back later.

Congrats again to all who made thier exercise goal and also to all that did thier best. Its not easy getting all of there days in, is it?

I have been without internet for a while but while I was out of town I walked about 2 miles to the lake by my grandmother's house the 3 days that I was there. Then while I was in TN I swam laps in the pool 2 mornings, walked the mall for an hour to exercise since there wasn't a workout room and hiked about 1 mi in Cade's Cove. Also I did Pilates class before leaving so I'm at 13 days. A little below target but next month is always there for improvement! And hopefully less travel.... It is incredably hard for me to find something to eat on the road with this fill.

Got workouts in on Friday and Sunday, same routine. 30 minutes treadmill, 30 minutes elliptical and 30 minutes on the machines working on legs. Finally saw the scale start shifting to the right again.

Whew!

I made it. On Friday I came down with a very nasty cold (flu?). Thanks to the customer service staff at US Airways (who were so helpful and nice), I was able to change my return home by one day. Last night I got to bed early, which made all the difference, and today I felt well enough to get that one last workout in.

Happy New Year to all you wonderful "Crazy Ates", and thank you very much for all of your support and inspiration -- you are the best!!!!

      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.
