Hey Peeps, sorry, but I've fallen off the exercise wagon! I haven't worked out in a while, but the good thing is I'm still losing, so I'm not gonna complain right now!

Wedding planning has been super super crazy! Bought the dress, I can't believe they had one that fit me! So next weekend we're getting the dresses for the girls! I'll be checking in again!

I just now found this thread, so had a lot of catching up to do! Also, will have spreadsheet updated this evening...sorry to be such a slacker in that department. Life is a little nuts right now, but will get back to posting and keeping up with the spreadsheet faithfully.

My workouts are still consistent, and the cardio is picked back up. Not only am I lifting an hour and a half to two hours a day Monday thru Friday, but now I'm getting back on the recumbent bike at the gym, too. I didn't realize how much I missed that! So I do that for 25 minutes a day on the days when I don't ride my real bike.

By the end of this week, I plan on being back here full force again guys! I miss it terribly! Take care everyone!

Hi Guys,

Sorry I was slacking posting here. I have been sick alot this month. It's not been good. First I was sick with bronchitis, then i got better then the kid got the croup. Then I came down with another head cold. I think..think..I am finally a healthy household. Haven't done a whole lot in January.

Yesterday went to the Y and just did some leg lifts and crunches. Also did the treadmill for 25 minutes. I've been leary of it since I came down with tendonitis in my ankle. But it felt just fine being on there. Even did some good running on it. It's amazing how good I felt. I could go for so much longer without feeling like I was dying. Anyways..the leg lifts were important to me. I never get through them in my saturday strength class. So I committed to working on them more so I can get through them at the class. I have spin class tonight. Still loveeee this class!

Hey daddy! It's great when you see yourself progress in the spin class. All of a sudden it doesn't feel like your gonna completely die in that class. One day it'll be nice not to be the biggest one in the class too (talking about me here..lol) Man those people are fit. All the girls have "chicken" legs too I call them. They look soooo good! I want that!

I got up early this morning and did my elliptical for 40 minutes..I had a test and so I thought it would be a good idea to get my brain on track by exercising...still thinking about going to the gym later.

Stefanie, I am so glad you found us, It has been so busy here...It was crazy...just trying to take a day at a time...

Have a great day everyone!

      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.
