New trainer, and new Dietitian!



Recommended Posts

Saw my new dietitian. Loved her. She was very down to earth, very straight forward and direct. Loved that.

I told her about the questions that my trainer has, as far as supplements and such post workout.

She made some small changes in her recommendations for Protein, and changed my Protein powder to a different one that contains extra amino acids for post workout. She also increased my daily protein a bit and increased my carbs a bit.

Tomorrow I have my first session with my new lifting trainer, SO excited!!!

I'm back. HERE I AM!!

It went great. I love the new trainer. Both the trainer and my dietitian are comfortable with what each other have to say and suggest. I spent quite some time with the trainer talking about my goals, and doing various testing and measurements, etc. Then she introduced me to all the various machines and free weights etc.

it was great because there was nobody at the gym during this time. She set up an entire program for me and really made me feel at ease with everything. It's going good so far, however I'm a nurse and worked this past weekend so tomorrow it's back to the gym for me!

I feel good about everything, I know this will be a bit of a long haul but i'll get there.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
