People trying to get you to eat...

I'm on my 4th day of my liquid diet and I have admit, I'm very grumpy and hungry.  So far, I haven't cheated and I don't want to cheat. I have to prove to myself that I'm ready to do what it takes to make this change in my life...but then I have people (like my mother) trying to push me into eating. She tells me how her lunch sucked (she's in a nursing home) and how she's hungry. But she has TONS of snacks to eat in her room. But she calls me on the phone and tells me how hungry she is, and the says that "everyone probably cheats on this liquid diet", and how she would cheat if she were on it. She also still wants me to bring her dinner in the nights that I come to visit - with the full knowledge that I can't eat right now. *sigh* 12 more days!

Think of all the skinny clothes you will be wearing and how great you will look. I am on day 7 and when I start to lose it I go to the before and after shots, sounds corny but it helps me.

I hear ya!! I do a lot of looking at the before and after shots. It really does help to keep me on track!

Just remember the saying..
Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels!

Hi there!  Yep - I had a hard time starting liquids also, but now that I had surgery I am sticking to the rules rigidly.  It's easier when I think about my incisions!  Also, I pretty much knew there would be people around me that will sabotage, so I just mentally steeled myself.  Not easy at times, but necessary.  Take care!
