So I'm in search for a good protein powder to use. Any suggestions on a good brand with the right nutrients and also a good price?
Thanks,

Need Motivation
· ho11ieberry06 · 07/30/2012 17:29
I am still in the pre-approval stage with my insurance. I am trying very hard to go through all the steps that are required and to also get myself ready for after surgery.
One of the things that I struggle with is motivation to exercise. It's not actually doing the exercise that is the hard part it's the "getting there" that I struggle with. I have a major fear of being judged. One of the things that I love doing is swimming laps. But in order for me to get to the pool I have to have this major internal dialog with myself and convince myself to go. I hate it so much! Does anyone else deal with this and if so, do you have any advice to make going to the gym or exercising easier?

Better Days To Come....i Have Hope!
· ho11ieberry06 · 08/13/2012 21:40
Reading these blogs and forums has been such a great help to me and I have started to realize that there is hope and better days to come.
Everyone's inspiring stories has really made me start to think about what I'm looking forward to after I have surgery. Here is a list I will share with all of you:
Going out - anywhere without feeling embarrassed
Fitting in an airplane seat
Going to the movies without feeling stuffed in the seats
Sitting on the floor to play with my nieces and nephews
Bending down to pick something up
Exercising without feeling embarrassed
Riding my bike
Buying cute clothes from "normal" stores
Dating
Going to the park
Going on walks
Camping
Traveling-anywhere-and not having my weight hold me back
Swimming without feeling embarrassed
Feeling like I'm worthy.....of anything
Being taken seriously
Not feeling shameful
I know there is a lot more, but that's all I can think of for now. For all of you who are in the pre-op stages....what are you looking forward to the most?
