I DID IT! Just finished. :tongue2: If I wouldn't have committed to do this today, I wouldn't have. There's something to actually being accountable to what you vow!

Hi girls, as I said on the other thread, count me in for Monday.....that is my day!

I vow to do 10 minutes on my elliptical, and take the dog on a walk......making a total of at LEAST 30 minutes of moving my butt!

I used to do the 20 minute program on my elliptical without issue, but now that 10 minutes is going to kill me and make my legs feel like wet noodles....I did it the other day, and was so ashamed!!!!

Keep going!!!!!

I did it and it is ALL YOUR FAULT!!!!

Rick went out to shovel walks and driveways-------and just because I knew I was supposed to be exercising, and could not take the dog out--I went and helped! We did ours which is big, and then the elderly man on the corners....I am exhausted!!!

But .......SO THERE! It IS all your fault I got off my butt and out of the lazy boy!!! LOL

Glad something forced me!!!

Wahoo I'm glad to take the blame for it :) I'm still holding you to tomorrow though hee hee. I need to get my butt downstairs today and do my 20-30 minutes of something and dang nabbit I'll do it :cry_smile:

DID YOU KNOW...that while folding laundry or changing the loads you can gain steps by marching in place. Yes I look silly but since the guys don't go in the laundry room who gives a crapola hahahaha. Just a hint for you folks too :thumbup: The more you move the more you lose :w00t:

Hey there "sweat buds"! Well I Literally had to "dust-off" the wii fit! No chit! big huge dust bunnies just rollin' off the thing! LOL! Seriously though, I did 35 min. of wii., started off warming up with balance games, moved into combos of yoga and strength and finished with hula and step. I wanted to go for a walk around the neighborhood today (and DH said he'd join me too *shock*)...but then it started to rain. (boo)

I was thinking of you guys when I got started again...soooooooooooo, thanks Sherry, for starting this thread and thanks Trish for starting with "vowing" to do a specific amount of exercise. Sherry, I DESPISE exercise,, so double thanks to you for starting this thread.

Hey Kat!!!! great to see you! I'm with you, so glad to have something that'll help me get this butt outta this chair!!!

Hopefully tomorrow I can do more than just make a happy piggy ( 30 min. happy piggy bank)...Really going to try to do the wii AND do the neighborhood walk tomorrow.

....so funny, when I finally got back on the wii fit it said "OH! you havn't been here in 145 days! looks like you missed your goal. Oh, you've gained 3 lbs! (yeah, ok, you know-it-all-wii!....well, I'm BaaAAAAAaaaack!) :)

      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.
