Here is the front angle. Be nice. It took a lot to show these.

My workout is basic cardio. I jog (@13 min mile) a 5k 3-4 times a week. I started walking 2 miles, then power walk, then slow jog, then increased to 5k. I stay at slow jog because I want to run for 40-45 minutes.

I eat 600-1000 calories a day depending on my appetite.

Mostly raw spinach and chicken or fish. No red meat, venison only which I harvest myself during hunting season.

Breakfast - 2 cups of coffee and a shake

lunch - 2-3 cups of raw spinach, shredded cheddar, chicken, & ranch dressing. Half of this for lunch.< /p>

dinner - the rest of my lunch. If im still hungry, a shake.< /p>

Thats about it. Pretty routine and boring, but im a routine guy.

I reward myself every 10-15lbs with a bowl of cookie dough blue bell ice cream. Then run a bit harder the next day.

Thanks for all the encouragement. Its really appreciated!

- fitting in chairs and seats

Ok, yeah, I went there. LOL.

Remember ladies, we love you, our partners, and no matter what, we want YOU. No matter how you feel you look. Overweight, underweight, sick, healthy. We WANT you! We DESIRE you!

If we could give you anything in the world, it would be the gift of seeing you through our eyes just for one day, so you could see how special you are to us.

Overweight or not, make love (sex) to your partner. He needs it.

After all, whats 2-3 minutes out of your evening anyway?

Carrie -- this forum helped me so much. I am 2 weeks post op and am so glad I was good on Preop. It had me ready for life postop. You can do it!!!!

Maybe that's another reason they do the 2 weeks, other than to remove the fatty stuff around the liver in order to be able to work under it.

I too, am on the liquid only diet. Day 3 for me. We can support each other.

Mine surgery will be at True Results in San Antonio. Where is yours?
