Well I missed Zumba tonight. Not to complain but my butt and hips are really bothering me. I'm going tomorrow night to 20/20/20 class though. I did workout this morning though - so at least I'm moving :-)

Dog walk: 20 mins.

Weights/abs: 30 mins. (which is why the dog got shortchanged :eek:)

lunch walk: 45 mins.

Still to come: p.m. dog walk (55 mins.)

Still trying to figure out where the showers/locker rooms are in my new office building so I can start bike commuting again. The car commute is really easy, but I'd much rather do the 10-mile round trip via bike.

Zumba is a latin dance/aerobics class. It's tons of fun. Lots of hip/booty shaking - lol. Lot's of core and leg work.

Today - 20/20/20 class

Well, after working until midnight Sunday and up again at 0530 on Monday, I was too tired last night to work out. :laugh: Made it in this morning, but workout was SH#T!

I've been feeling "weak" the past 3 or 4 wks. I think it is because I stopped drinking my Protein shakes for Snacks btwn meals. Don't think I am getting enough Protein for me to recover properly. I'll start it up again starting today. We'll see how it works out.

You don't like oatmeal? I don't think I've ever met a non-oatmeal person.

Zumba sounds like fun - I have asked my Y if it is possible for perhaps next semester.

Eh....I was trying to cut out the cost from the budget. Now, my body is paying the price. I'll have to work something out.

I can't really say that I love or hate oatmeal. I'll eat it, but don't have to have it.

As for eating before working out, that I just can't do. I feel sick and usually throw up if I eat right before I work out.

      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.
