thank you!

My day has started well!! A few of you have asked me what I have done to maintain my weightloss for almost 4 years and what I have done to keep away from the dreaded lose skin.Here are a few examples from my daily routine..

1. Wake up 4:30am at the gym by 5:00am stretching by 5:15

2. Spin class from 5:30-6:30am

3. Drink A protien shake 10-15 min after work out

4. Get ready to work by 8 am

5. Eat first meal, small oat meal OJ and a half apple sliced

6. lunch half chicken breast spinach salad, lemon juice for dressing and cottage cheese table spoons 1:00pm

7. snack dry almonds 8-10 pieces

8. dinner 1/2 Ground turkey patty 1/2 cup mashed potatos brocolie 7pm

9. Walk or jog with the dogs 1 hour

Lotts of water! i drink at least 10 bottles per day! Add resistance trainning to your work out! Remember you are losing weight very fast, you dont want to lose valuable muscle mass. Do a lot of reps not a lot of weight! There is no magic number just do it to muscle failuer, meaning do the reps until you cant do anymore!

I went from that to this! In two years! This is not an easy fix, it takes time and dedication! You can do it!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
