Da nada, J.S.

Hey everyone I ran out of CD envelopes, so I'll send out CDs to the latest requesters when I get some more in in a few days. Don't think I've forgotten you.

Kare,

I got md CD today, and I love it. It made my 30 min. treadmill workout go so much faster than normally. I go to the gym every other day, the days that I don't go the gym I workout on the treadmill at home. The music I have been listen to has gotten really boring. Thank you so much Kare.

I'm glad you guys like the CD, but still you haven't guessed which is DeLarla's song!

So I bet that means no one has gotten that far.

(whimps!)

:)

You can skip ahead you know.

:faint: Oh man, I'm gonna be sore tomorrow...

I made it through the whole CD today, but I had to skip 3 songs. I'm stumped about Lisa's song because I was sure it was "Maniac". My guess for Kare's favorite song is "The Fire Inside" by Bob Seger.

I did 30 minutes of hill climbing on the treadmill (I can't run. I'd try but then they'd have to carry me off on a stretcher). Then I did the elliptical for 23 minutes followed by 5 minutes of cooldown/stretching. I was on the elliptical with my eyes closed, gasping and singing "Constant Craving" when DH came in. Fortunately, I was too tired to feel like a dork. :biggrin1:

I did it! I walked today! I have been trying to get over the frumpies and everyone said "Exercise and Sex" so I loaded up the CD player and went for a 1/2 hour walk. Got the first 6 songs in...WOW! Thanks Kare! I think "The Fire Inside' is your song, too. I have never really listened to it till today. I like it alot. I don't think I've gotten to DeLarla's song yet. "You Crack Me Up" was a contender, but she's not "a twisted wreck"..well, maybe on some days...LOL but I'm thinking it will be Junk food...maybe, we'll see after I walk again, and I'll start on song 7. Love the CD. Thanks!!!

Sex is next. Night all!!! :) :)

Sex is next. Night all!!! :);)

OMG--I am soooooo jealous!!

I'd take sex over (or in addition to) a workout ANYday.

Unfortunately it's not an option. (Okay, there's always DL's devices, but that's not really the same.) In fact, "Someday Sex" is all that GETS me to exercise most days!!

Kare did you change your user name or have I just missed it? I've never noticed the devil part before. Kare you keep up that attitude because someday sex is going to be oh so sweet for you! I'm with my boyfriend but I still dream of someday sex just in a different way from you! Like things I'm not able to do at this size etc. That's good motivation right there!

Yep, it's me. I changed my screen name so I wouldn't be quite so exposed by google. Ever since that "privacy & google" post appeared I've been wanting to change to an alias, but never could change my user name before. But I had to use something somewhat recognizable since I didn't want you guys not to wonder what happened to me!

(You WOULD wonder, right?)

Okay, I just sent out some more CDs today. Anyone who has sent me their address before 1/19 should have gotten or will be getting a CD in the mail in the next few days.

Enjoy!

(Oh... and to those who have sent private thank you's, you are all very welcome. Hopefully your inspiration will inspire me also as I seem to be low these days.)

      So I guess after gastric bypass surgery, I cant eat flock chips because they are fried???  They sell them on here so I thought I could have them. So high in protein and no carbs.  They don't bother me at all.  Help.

        It's possible for a very high fat meal to cause dumping in some (30% or so) gastric bypass patients, although it's more likely to be triggered by high sugar, or by the high fat/high sugar combo (think ice cream, donuts). Dietitians will tell you to never do anything that isn't 100% healthy ever again. Realistically, you should aim for a good balance of protein, carbs, and fat each day. Should you eat fried foods every day? No. Is it possible they will make you sick? Maybe. Is it okay to eat some to see what happens and have them for a treat every now and again? Yes.

      I'm not at all hungry on this liquid pre-op diet, but I miss the sensation of chewing. It's been about two weeks––surgery is in two days––and I can't imagine how I'll feel a couple of weeks post-op. Tonight, I randomly stumbled upon a mukbang channel on YouTube, and it was strangely soothing... is it just me, or is this a thing?

        I actually watched cooking shows during my pre-op, like Great British Baking Show. It was a little bizarre, but didn't make me hungry. I think it was also soothing in a way.

      How do you figure out what your ideal weight should be? I've had a figure in my head for years, but after 3 mths of recovery I'm already almost there. So maybe my goal should be lower?

        Well, there is actually a formula for "Ideal Body Weight" and you can use a calculator to figure it out for you. This one also does an adjusted weight for a person who starts out overweight or obese. https://www.mdcalc.com/calc/68/ideal-body-weight-adjusted-body-weight

        I would use that as a starting point, and then just see how you feel as you lose. How you look and feel is more important than a number.

      2. Clueless_girl

        I did find different calculators but I couldn't find any that accounted for body frame. But you're right, it is just a number. It was just disheartening to see that although I lost 60% of my excess weight, it's still not in the "normal/healthy" range..

      3. NickelChip

        I think it's important to remember that the weight charts and BMI ranges were developed a very long time ago and only intended to be applied to people who have never been overweight or obese. Those numbers aren't for us. When you are larger, especially for a long time, your body develops extra bone to support the weight. Your organs get a little bigger to handle the extra mass. Your entire infrastructure increases so you can support and function with the extra weight. That doesn't all go away just because you burn off the excess fat. If you still had a pair of jeans from your skinniest point in life and then lost weight to get to the exact number on the scale you were when those jeans fit you, chances are they would be a little baggy now because you would actually be thinner than you were, even though the scale and the BMI chart disagree. When in doubt, listen to the jeans, not the scale!

      Tomorrow marks two weeks since surgery day and while I'm feeling remarkably well and going about just about every normal activity, I did wind up with a surface abscess on on of my incision sights and was put on an antibiotic that made me so impacted that it took me more than two hours to eliminate yesterday and scared the hell out of me. Now there's Miralax in all my beverages that aren't Smooth Move tea. I cannot experience that again. I shouldn't have to take Ativan to go to the lady's. I really looking forward to my body getting with the program again. 
      I'm in day three of the "puree" stage of eating and despite the strange textures, all of the savory flavors seem decadent. 
      I timed this surgery so that I'd be recovering during my spring break. That was a good plan. Today is a state holiday and the final day of break. I feel really strong to return to school tomorrow.

      Now that I'm in maintenance mode, I'm getting a into a routine for my meals. Every day, I start out with 8-16 ounces of water, and then a proffee, which I have come to look forward to even the night before. My proffees are simply a black coffee with a protein powder added. There are three products that I cycle through: Premier Vanilla, Orgain Vanilla, and Dymatize Vanilla.
      For second breakfast on workdays, I will have a low-fat yogurt with two tablespoons of PBFit and two teaspoons of no sugar added dried cherries. I will have ingested 35-45 grams of protein at this point between the two breakfasts, with 250-285 calories, and about 20 carbs.
      For second breakfast on non-workdays, I will prepare two servings of plain, instant oatmeal with a tablespoon of an olive oil-based spread. This means I will have had 34 grams of protein, 365 calories, and 38 carbs. Non-workdays are when I am being very active with training sessions, so I allow myself more carbohydrate fuel.
      Snacks on any day are always mixed nuts, even when I am travelling. I will have 0.2 cups of a blend that I make myself. It consists of dry roasted peanuts, cashews, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, pistachios, and Brazil nuts. This is 5 grams of protein, 163 calories, and 7 carbs.
      Breakfast and snacks have been the easiest to nail down. Lunch and dinner have more variables, and I prepare enough for leftovers. I concentrate on protein first, and then add vegetables. Typically tempeh, tofu, or Field Roast products with roasted or sautéed vegetables. Today, I will be eating leftovers from last night. Two ounces of tempeh with four ounces of roasted vegetables that consist of red and yellow sweet peppers, sweet potatoes, small purple potatoes, zucchini, and carrots. I will add a tablespoon of olive oil-based spread, break up 3 walnuts to sprinkle of top, and garnish with two tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese. This particular meal will be 19 grams of protein, 377 calories, and 28 grams of carbs. Bear in mind that I do eat more carbs when I am not working, and I focus on ingesting healthy carbs instead of breads/crackers/chips/crisps.
      It's a helluva journey and I'm thankful to be on it!
