Meal Replacements

Lets chat about not wanting eat. I get those days where you just don't care and you are not really hungry  and nothing sounds appetizing, I rarely have these days because I am obsessed with the watching the cooking channel. My down fall is that I am lazy and never have groceries to cook with……. seriously I only have baby food and milk… how can I be gourmet with baby food and milk?

So I have alternatives. I absolutely LOVE the supplements from Dr Boyce's office! They are amazing! They are balanced with everything I need! They have the perfect amount of nutrition I need for every meal and or snack. So if you have read my past posts you know that I traveled to India. I was so afraid that when I went I would not be able to eat the food, Indian food is known to be spicy and my tummy does not do well with spicy since the surgery. So I took enough Protein Shakes to last me the entire trip. It was funny that win I opened my suitcase all of the bottles fell out! They were my life savors throughout his trip. I did find some average spiced food but I always carried my shakes and a bottle of water to mix them, that is another great plus, all you have to do is add some water and shake, shake, shake! They were a life saver!!!!

Go and check out the supplements, even if you just need vitamins  there are amazing ones that have been specially formulated to have the perfect combination for a ton of needs….. I take the "Hair, Skin and Nail" and have amazing results!!! Go check everything out at www.newlifebariatricsurgery.com Let's get healthy and be happy!!!!



It's been awhile… Like FOREVER!

I'M BACK!!! So sorry It has been so long since I posted!

Little update, since the last time I posted I had a baby! I really never thought I would have kids, but it has been the best thing that has ever happened to me! I am now down to 145 pounds!

So lets do some math… The day I had my surgery I was 305 and now I am 145 (even after being pregnant) so that means I have lost 160 pounds!!! I feel amazing I have NEVER been in a single digit pant size until now!

I will be honest I HATE exercise so I try and find fun things to do to get in some body movement. I love Hula Hooping*…. Yes I know it sounds childish and odd, but they now have adult size hoops*. The thing that is so great about the adult size hoop* is that it is bigger and heavier, one it spins slower so you can keep it 'up' easier and it gives you a great core work out! It is not just for your mid-section, you can also spin it on your hand or arms and it will tone up your upper body too! It's a great alternative exercise.

But there are MANY other options for exercise if you don't like the 'Regular' routines…. I hate puss-ups, leg lifts, treadmills, weights….. Pretty much the only thing I like to do at a gym is the Eliptical, I don't know why buy I can stay on one of those for hours! I love them! If I had room in my house I would get one, but when you live in a 1300sqft house with a toddler there isn't much extra room (she has too many d**n toys). Which is an issue I know drivers can relate too, not the toys but the lack of space). So think of alternative ways to exercise. There are so many options…. Hooping, Jump Rope, Kettle Bell, even just walking (32 times around a truck and 56' trailer equals a mile) you can be exercising while you are doing your pre and or post trip checks! Get out and get moving!

And if you want to learn more about weight lose surgery and its amazing benefits contact me! I would be more than help you with any questions or to direct you to someone who can help you with your healthy life path.  You have so many options don't wait just jump in and change your life for the better! Get rid of your meds, your sleep apnea, your high blood pressure, reverse your diabetes, just feel better about yourself! Be proactive and help yourself be all that you can be and that doesn't mean you have to get surgery you can do it with any 'tools' you want to use! I used the surgery tool mixed with some alternative exercise and I have found amazing results……. Lets find what will work for you!
