So I am on the 6th day of my 7 day pre-op liquid diet. I did one week of no carbs (basically the induction phase of the south beach diet) before I started this liquid diet to ease myself into things. I lost 5 lbs on the week of no carbs and so far 7 lbs on this liquid diet. I started at 311 and I wanted to be under 300lbs by the time I went in for surgery! My first goal achieved!!!

 

The liquid diet isn't so bad. I mean besides having dreams of forgetting I'm on a liquid diet and stuffing my face. One night I even had a dream that I smoked some weed and just started binge eating. Thank goodness these things were only in a dream. I haven't cheated once and am almost done. I just kept thinking, "If I can't do this for a week, then how do I expect to do this for the rest of my life." Somehow I found enough motivation to stick with it.

 

Now, I'm just swimming along. "Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming." And soon it will be my time to take the fall...Wednesday October 30th, 2013 is the day my life will change forever.

Hey Lady!!!

How are you? Thank you. Ooooh. Awesome! I think you will find that you like him. My husband was comforted by meeting him. He came with me to my pre-op appointment last week. He seems extremely intelligent and a little ocd...which is good for a doctor. And he keeps cosmetic things in mind to. Let me know if you have any questions or whatever.

thanks! My mom's coming with me this time -- my husband met him at the seminar back in Dec. We both really liked him. Yes ocd is great in a dr! He seems down to earth as well. Didn't talk to the doc one on one, so I look forward to that. I wonder how many of these he does per week? Per month?

Mary is absolutely awesome -- had a phone consult with her last week. I will have to make at least one more trip, maybe two, before I come for the surgery, so my husband will come next time. I think he's actually still hoping that I will change my mind :/

I would love if you'll give a blow-by-blow of your hospital stay, if/when you're up to it. Do you know what time you're scheduled for the OR? I'll be sending positive vibes your way!!

      Xbox And Exercise - Kickboxing

      By sharon232 · Posted

      I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
