    Starting all over

    By Lindsay,

    I've always kept extreme details of my workouts.
    This was in my past life, when I was completely over board with everything I did.
    But journaling kept me focused & on track. And knowing I was motivation for others out in cyber-land kept me really motivated and excited to keep going.
    I keep a w/o journal, but it's all written down - i'd just have to transcribe everything after i get back from the gym, which was never a big deal. I'm on the computer anyways ...
    But I'm thinking about starting a blog again.
    I was wondering if this might be motivation to those in the lap band community, who forget how crucial and important working out is, and diet.
    I'm finally seeing real results from the hard work I'm putting in every. single. day.
    Not binging is my real challenge. Especially after 10pm. That's when I fight the fake-hunger, as I call it.

    1 day to go!

    By Lindsay,

    ekkks!
    tomorrow i leave for mexico!
    we're driving to buffalo in the earrrrrly morning, to catch our flight around noon.
    sigh/
    i'm getting butterflies in my tummy .. i'm getting so excited!
    I was down 5.5lbs this morn -
    that's just over a lb a day.
    i'm not going to get to 11lbs by tuesday, but realistically, that's fairly impossible - unless I stopped drinking liquid and didn't eat.
    I've always held more water .. boo.

    first entry

    By Lindsay,

    My first official day of my pre-op diet started yesterday.
    i've had some stomach issues in the past, when i've been dieting, due to the lack of substance in my tummy - and the medication I'm on.
    Just a bad bad mix!
    I was experiencing some of these symptoms yesterday. I was throwing up constantly last night, every 30 minutes or so. But because i have nothing in my tummy, it was more gagging, to release the air that seems to be in there. I'd always feel better, but only for 30 minutes or so.
    UGH.
    I didn't eat much yesterday. The protein shake I had for lunch didn't stay down.
    I have such a delicate constitution!
    This morning, i had 2 eggs, which basically has the same nutritional value as 1 pro shake.
    And it felt far more substantial. And I was satisfied.
    Thank goodness I can have 2tbsp of cream in my morning coffee - i verified that with the nutritionist
    Yesterday: 20 min HIIT cardio.
    and a few little walkies with the boys (my dogs - i have a 14 mth old doberman & 8 yr old boston terrier)
    Diet: 1 pro shake, that didn't stay down.
    1 Weight Watchers frozen meal - turkey/mashed potatoes .. and a side salad of leaf lettuce and 2 squirts of some artificial low cal dressing i was told i could use.
    2 kosher pickles as a snack.
    I"ve decided to start blogging here, as I haven't felt 'safe' in my usual blog. I think most of my online friends are used to a lindsay with a positive, healthy attitude about life and nutrition. Over the past year, my priorities, and my physical/fitness goals have gone to shit.
