My fill appointment and thoughts and such



Recommended Posts

I had my fill on the second. I have been doing Protein shakes all day and probably will for at least half of tomorrow. I guess I'll see what I can do.

I'm going to:

*Eat Slower

*Sit and relax when eating...I have a problem with this:thumbdown:

My doctor told me that not relaxing and eating slowly can cause me to not keep the food down.

*Eat MORE Protein. I have not been doing well with this.

*Exercising everyday...I bought an Ipod so I'm going to walk at the local College before I work every day...

Plus, I'm going to do a video of some kind on the weekends if I cannot get in a walk.

*Journal all food and exercise...ALL of it...

I really need to get my butt in gear and get this weight off. I have been slacking with exercise so thats going to stop. I'm hoping to be running by June.

*Short Term Goal..Lose 12-15 pounds by May 12th...My next fill date...

**I need to quit making excuses for not exercising and JUST DO IT...**

Thank you all for listening to me go on...

Great goals and steps to moving forward.

For fitness, if you'd like to get running, I highly suggest the Couch to 5K program you can find at Cool Running :: running run training marathon runners jogging jogger joggers runner run fitness exercise diet weight loss nut.... I was amazed at how I was able to go from not much running to running a 5K, at still well over 200 lbs. Best of luck!

      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.
