May Exercise Challenge



Recommended Posts

No exercise over the weekend. Just too busy.

Did upper body circuit training yesterday followed by 35 minutes on elliptical. Then, home to mow the backyard. Played fetch with my GSD. Then, tried to get him to go out running with me. Don't know if it was because of the fetch or his age, but he was only able to make it about 1/3 of a mile before lagging too much. Didn't want to kill him, so we walked the rest.

This morning, I ran the loop bossman took me on last Thur. Bastard lied to me.:purplebananna: Said it was a just under 3 miles. Turns out it was 3.6 miles. He really did push me. Oh well, I survived last week and today was easier. Had my normal running partner and another Sgt. here at work with me this morning. Went at a nice pace. Have to do it again this week.

Legs tonight.

Too much running! Tomorrow I'm taking off and then Thurs. is my bike day. Haven't decided what I'll do on Friday.

Legs last night. Ran 2 miles this morning on along the Mississippi this morning. Felt like I could keep going but the guy who just started running again was hurting as it was. So, softball tonight and then back at it tomorrow.

      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.
