Get Moving Thread for Week of 3/10



Recommended Posts

I hope nobody minds that I started this. I thought it might be nice for us to have a thread where we can post our exercise for this week. We can always go back in and update our original posts to add the exercise we do throughout the week. I know for me, it will make me feel more accountable so that maybe I actually do it!

Here's mine. Right now, I'm still limited to walking only, but I look forward to adding some weight training and body shaping exercises soon! My goal this week is to get in at least 3 days. It is a busy week for us because my daughters have a dance competition this weekend and we have dress rehearsal, but I think 3 days are do-able!

Monday - walked 2 miles

Tuesday - will walk 2 miles

Wednesday - can't go walking this day, have dress rehearsal

Thursday - plan to go walking

Friday - going out of town, maybe walk that morning?

Great idea, Allykat! I am not an exercise lover at all! I plan on joining the YMCA as soon as I can save up enough money to pay for a years membership (I hoping I will have enough saved up to start at the beginning or middle of April). Until then, I will try to get moving more. I don't like to walk, so I will probably alternate between strength training and jump roping.

Monday- nothing :tongue:

Tuesday- 20 minutes strength training

Wednesday- jump rope

Thursday- 20 minutes strength training

Friday- jump rope

Saturday- 20 minutes strenght training

Sunday- Nothing, too busy between church that morning, choir practice, and evening service.

      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.
