City: Newark State: Delaware | walking on sunday
I would love to walk Sunday. I will not be back from Lancaster until about 1pm.. so if you go in the afternoon let me know. I am still planning on Wednesday night if anyone else is up for it? Just send me an e-mail or post it here, I will check the site when i get home. I did the 3 mile MS walk this morning. and we finished in just under 50 minutes. It frlt good. I will admit by the time I gopt home I was getting stiff. Hit the shower and relaxed a bit. I went out to dinner tonight, baked (5)scallops and crab cake, with some cottage cheese. I did bring most of the crab cake home, So dinner for another night is set! Does anyone else have trouble getting in their veggies? Talk with everyone tomorrow Lynn

Howdy!
I'll be there Sunday morning.
I can't walk Wednesday, I have a prior commitment. I can walk on Monday or Friday. (I know Friday is probably a bad day, but it's worth a shot)

I am up for walking on Monday and Friday. And if anyone else wants to walk Wednesday I am game for that too. I drove around behind College Square, the area you said had the walking path, but saw nothing. How is it marked. 6pm is the best time for me, no matter what night, if anyone else can make that time. Just let me know where for Monday night. I got back from Lancaster late. It was raining there so I stayed a bit longer. Hope your walk this morning was envigorating! I tried do hard this weekend to stay within the eating guidelines, and think i did fairly well. I don't know how we are supposed to keep our carbs around 30g, i find that near to impossible. Is anyone else having trouble with that? Lynn

Lynn,
I have been watching calories and not carbs. I have been doing a lot better since then.

Hi!
6 p.m. on Monday and Friday work for me. The path in Newark is behind the Pep Boys. There is a Road, I believe it is Willa Rd. There is a park called Delaware Technology park. If you look right next to the bridge (where Library Road is) you will see the path. It actually starts on the top of the hill where Willa Rd and Library Ave. intersect. I can show you some time if you like.
I don't remember any carb guidelines. Of course, now I have gone through 2 programs. I start the mushies on Tuesday. Right now I have only protein and fluid intake guidelines. I keep meaning to email the dietician about whether I need to count carbs or calories as well.... I guess it gets more complicated when you move from the liquids.
I will have to say that I did Atkins and lost 100 pounds. It was tough at times to keep my carbs at 20 or below. I think I would have to cut out all the milk products. They have a lot more carbs then I could handle if I limited myself to 30 carbs a day. I know I ate a lot of meat and cheese. I ate low carb veggies like cauliflower, broccoli and brussel sprouts.
The walk today was good. I think the first day is always the toughest. I look forward to increasing our speed and endurance!
I guess we can meet at 40/896 tomorrow at 6.

City: Newark State: Delaware | mushies, carbs and calories, OH, my!!!
I see the dietition on April 29, but may call this week to see about the carbs. I am at about 800-900 calories a day, depending on what I eat. And I do agree, the carbs are high in cottage cheese and milk, and bananas...guess I'll cut back a bit on them.. I'll see HopeInApril and anyone else tomorrow night at 6pm, 896/40. I am mixing mushies and soft solid for the next week-10 days. I am supposed to have "real", regular diet a few days before my next appt. with Dr. Wynn, 5/9. There are times I think there is restriction, but beginning to think it is from eating too fast...My main problem with food, as well as portion size..I know that is what helped me get to this point. I am interested in how my weight loss is doing.. I'll step on the scale at work Tuesday morning Delaware, thanks for posting the next 2 meetings. I have been looking for my paperwork with the dates...

Hey gang, My name is Kim and I had surgery on 6/2/06. I have had some struggles along the way but I have managed a 75 pound loss. I would love to join the group for some walks. One of my biggest issues is exercise....quite frankly....I HATE IT...LOL But my goal is to be better about this day to day. Look forward to meeting some of you in the futures.

City: Newark State: Delaware | walk on Wednesday 4/23
I am planning on walking Wednesday evening, around 6pm at 896/40 path in Glasgow. Anyone else gonna come along..??
Just let any of us know.
Kim, come join the group.
HopeInApril and I walked last evening...were able to complete it in about 50 minutes, and before any rain. A few times while walking i felt a few sprinkles, but no real rain.
Next week I am hoping to get to the gym here at work a few times a week and work on my arms. The facility is free for us and I want to make use of the services
Well, better get back to work
Catch up with you all later
Lynn

Howdy!
The walk last night was good. There were a few sprinkles, but that wasn't bad. I can't go tomorrow night, but will walk Friday if anyone else wants to go.
Welcome Kim! Nice to have someone who is further along on the Lap Band path.
Life is moving along ladies. Now that I am eating mushies, I feel like I have some restriction. Very cool.
