My Tuesday weigh in 1 more pound.

Nice job!! As of today, I still haven't lost; haven't gained, but haven't lost...I need to go to the gym more. This time of year it is packed. They said it will slack off in March when most people give up on their resolutions. If I want to go, I have to go around 9pm to get on the treadmill, and at least this week, I am too tired, since I get up at 4:55.:confused:

Well, things aren't moving fast for me either. I went to a weight loss bible study last night. A fitness trainer came and talked to us about our diet.....70-80g of Protein a day, less than 60 sugars, and not more than 20% of fat a day. Basically it is the same diet my doctor put me on. So, I am working on it. I wish my wii weights would come in so I can start on resistance training. I am back walking, but he said cardio won't burn the calories like resistance exercise. YA think?

By the way, I started drinking EAS Advantage shakes. They are good. 17g of protein.

Well, girls, lets keep going. I know we will have victory if we don't give up.

Later!

Glad you made it home safely in this weather. Yeah, I have been reading the Beck Diet. You don't need the workbook....it is the same.

I am having a bad calorie day. Trying to fight this sweet tooth I have . Better stick my face in a book or go for a walk.

Kimaly, same here......no gain or loss. I am still doing the Beck Diet and now the bible study on Monday. We weighed and measured last night. Yuck! The Beck Diet is about putting positive statements on post-its and index card. So, I am going to put up scripture too. The Battlefield of the Mind is about how we entertain negative thoughts and they turn into negative actions.

Okay, going to go walk. I got my wii weights, but I couldn't find the wii walking tape. I guess I will see if I can use them with the wii fitness tape.

We can do this! I hope all of you have a prosperous day!

LOL, I guess my age is showing also because I didn't catch that until your next post. Do you have the weights that velcro around your ankles or wrist? That's the type I have and I use them on the Wii fit plus with the step exercise on my wrist and the running in place on my ankles.

Mine have a clip on thing that holds the remote or you can take it off and use them without the remote. I only paid

$10.00 for them. I found them at Big Lots(a closeout store)

I'm really trying to stay with it this time, I have a bad habit of starting and not following thru with the exercise. I was kinda mad at that Wii, When I made my Avitar they made her fat as soon as I got on the scale. Too funny, hope I can get her smaller soon. It also said I should try to get down to 132lbs, I'm not even trying to hear that, I just lowered my goal weight to 150lbs and I think I'll be fine with that. It will put me at a normal BMI and if it ever happens, No more complaining about my weight I will just work on maintaining.

      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.
