Robyn - I am in awe. I can't imagine being able to do that each day much less even consider doing more excersize once I got home.

I think maybe that is why I'm also so apprehensive about "working out" on my days off too. I'm beat from "working out" at my day job:rolleyes:

Problem is....it can at times be "aerobic", but most of the time just average activity....so I"m not really getting an aerobic workout through the week unless I push myself else where with actual "exercise" on my days off.....no way in heck I could go for a walk after work:omg:

It's no wonder nursing has one of the highest burn out rates:(

Ladies -

that buffalo dip is from a recipe book that a woman on OH sent to me. I have only made the dip so far, but it was DELICIOUS. Send me your emails and I will forward you a PDF of the recipe book. The oh woman is also on here sometimes, but I don't remember her username. Something like willowbas or willoweas or something.

SO yesterday I ended up not eating until dinner. I ordered a large salad, but only ate about 1/5 of it. I'm going to guesstimate that if you made a salad on a tea saucer, that's the size I had. Consisted of:

House basil vinegarette

Asparagus

Romaine

Iceberg

Wonton strips

Peruvian pulled chicken

Blue cheese

I also had 6 sweet potato chips with sugar/salt seasoning

And I had two of the tiny bite size Snickers!

Today I have had: nothing! I will have either some cold cut/cheese from a deli tray for lunch, or leftover chipotle sitting in the fridge. Not sure.

Haha Hi P'Nut!

It's Shawnee Mission Medical Center, where our surgeon's office (The Bariatric Center of Kansas City) is located. :D

32 oz. Water (32)

Breakfast: 8-10 oz. Buffalo chicken Dip

24 oz Water (56)

24 oz water (80)

24 oz water (94)

Lunch: Shrimp fajita (no tortilla), sour cream, salsa, queso, black bean chips. Dessert: low-carb ice cream bar(6g)

24 oz water (118)

Exercise: 30 minutes Denise Austin Cardio Dance

24 oz water (142)

Dinner: Buffalo chicken Dip (spoon)*

Dessert: Another lc ice cream bar (6g)

24 oz water (166)

*Finished off the buffalo chicken dip. It is supposed to yield about 4 cups, and it lasted 4 meals, so I guess I'm eating about a cup of it every time.

I still have everything except the chicken, so I might make it again with canned chicken this time, and then eat it as a dip with pepperoni chips. that was my bright idea.

Okay gonna post tonight and then hit the hay ;) Just got home from working another long day.....

Breakfast: 1 cup dry honey nut cheerios, coffee with Creamer

Snack: 5 pieces of cubed cheese, and maybe 2 small bite sized pieces of summer sausage.

Lunch: 1/3 cup chili with cheese and 1 tbsp sour cream, 1/2 cup salad with ranch dressing, croutons, bacon bits, blue cheese, and sunflower seeds.

Snack #2: 3 oatmeal raisin Cookies (over the course of about 3 hours).

Dinner: None....too tired again:notagree

Water: No surprise....I would guesstimate 32 oz.

Exercise: Just walking again at work today, probably not quite as much as yesterday, but close.

That puts me at around 1006 cals for today and a measly 26 gms Protein.

Where's everyone else's posts? Come on people....spill it!!!:mad:

Breakfast: 1 slim fast milk chocolate peanut bar (exciting right?)

Lunch: chicken salad made with Warden's Farms 0 cal dressing instead of mayo on a pita (1/2 cup chicken salad on a pita)

Snack: 100 calorie Teddy Grahms pack

Dinner: 6 chicken wings, chicken burger with slice of cheese sm salad with cucumber and warden's farms 0 cal blue cheese dressing.

Dessert: 2 20 calorie lifesaver ice pops

10 bottles of Water (1/2 liter each for 5 liters of Water or 165oz)

Weird thought for the day, the pita is less calories then the tortilla wraps, but they seem to leave me more hungry later in the day. When I eat a tortilla wrap sandwich I don't seem to be hungry for much longer time.

Here's my day.

Breakfast - Protein Drink - 20oz Isopure

lunch - Deviled eggs - 4

dinner - Rice - 1 Heaping Tablespoon

- chicken - approx 1/4 cup

Snacks - M&M's - last handful

- Pepperoni - 8 slices

- graham cracker - half

w/Peanut Butter - 1 Tablespoon

Water - 24 oz (44 if you count the Protein drink)

Exercize - None (I know I know I can't expect the scale to keep moving if I don't get to moving myself.)

Funny thing about the Shredded chicken it was cooked by DH in skillet with Olive Oil and his "Secret" spices. My DH couldn't even boil Soup before surgery but has been forced to cook more and more over the year. Now he's even claiming rights to his own "Secret" spices. Priceless I tell you. Think he's getting tired of eating so much Cereal all those nights I either don't want to cook or don't cook enough.

Days like today are what (I think) are perhaps slowing my weightloss. That and time, of course! But today, I'm MAYBE at 300 calories. Maybe. Oh, add about 180 calories for a Protein Drink I forgot about. So still under 500 calories. Never felt hungry today, so to eat more than that I would have had to eaten when not hungry, or go beyond satisifed. *sigh*

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
