That's cool that both are going thru this journey together.

I had to re-focus on my exercise, yesterday in the afternoon I was watching tv and told myself that I needed to do some workout. It's been colder outside so it's hard for me to get into the working out mode. Anyway, I got my taebo videos out and did my 45 min workout yesterday????✌????️

I've been really struggling with exercise too but we are remodeling our house to put it on the market so I do manual labor instead. I'll get back to it soon though.

I used to have the old taebo videos, the ones from 1990's. You know when I had the surgery I remembered how much I enjoyed the taebo video exercise so I went online ordered the DVDs thru Amazon and guess what is the old one the one that it had the instructional, basic and 8 min workout. It comes in one dvd and it only cost me 7.99 I love it!

7.99 that's awesome! I have so many exercise dvds. I can't wait to actually get to using some of them. As soon as my house remodeling is complete.

My day has been good, we went to the Apple Store to get my laptop fix. However, traffic is crazy with all the people shopping for Christmas. We went to chick filet to eat and I had the grilled chicken nuggets. They were good and 140 calories, not bad. I also took a Protein Shake cause I new I was going to be out for more then 4 hours.

Yes my daughter did hit onederland. I'm so proud of her. She's doing really well. I hate the xmas traffic but I guess it'll all be over before we know it. Glad your doing well.

What is everyone doing for thanksgiving dinner? I have 2 college kids, a daughter and a son and my 8 year old son. Well, they already made a list of the food they want and everything is very high in calories and carbs.

My son wants tamales which he gets home tomorrow so I made them already. For thanksgiving dinner they wants ribs, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese (homemade) and fried corn. My goodness I will need to be very careful. Oh and Desserts. My family don't like much the turkey, only me I guess. Well I will make sure I have a Protein shake on hand. ????????

Tpost-260556-14483330413267_thumb.jpg this is my evening snack cucumbers and jicama with lime and chili powder. I usually eat it when I want something crunchy.

      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.

      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!!
