Whhellp... Day one

I'm a little behind here... BUT I'm doing the liquid thing!!! uh... sorta. ROFL... This is what I've had so far: Breakfast: decaf coffee with milk and splenda & One packet of SF Pudding Lunch: Vegetable beef soup. No...its not just the broth but its very very brothy. There is hardly any beef in there...care of my cafeteria not stocking up the soup so I kinda got the scraps... BUT there is veggies in there. zucchini and celery and some carrots. I know its not liquid but I know it wont hurt my weight loss. I am also sipping on my protein drink. Isopure. 40 grams. it usually always helps to curb my appetite. Its just getting the slightly icky stuff down. Snack: I will have another packet or 2 of the SF pudding. Probably one for desert and one for around 3-3:30 when I get hungry. Everyone around in the office gets hungry around that time and you see people slowly scavenging for food. lol. anyways... so far so good!!!! Not too awful hard. But thank goodness for the soup cuz I was HUNGRY! Elizabeth M

Good luck, sweetie, we've got your back. Just try to relax and know that you can do anything for just one day, anything... just think about today and think about this in terms of getting the toxins out of your body. I'll do this - I'll commit to you RIGHT NOW that I will not have a single stinkin' M&M today, not one. I make that promise to you. Just for today. How's that. We'll get through today together. Ok? Ok. My pony is sick and in isolation. So I'm stressing. When horses get wheezing and coughing, it can get real serious real quickly. We're all hopeful it's just a trigger reaction from the stress of moving her from one barn to another. But no matter the stress of life (and there's plenty more), I've made this commitment to you for today. Maureen

I'm going to start liquids again today also. My intestinal track is shot and I don't see the gastrenterologist until next month. I felt good on the liquids so I'll try that again for another couple of days. Haven't had a successful bathroom moment since last Saturday no matter what I've tried so I really don't want to put anything solid in my body. I'm with ya!

And Connie, I've gained all but 2 back of what I've lost...and Elizabeth, it's not quite 11am and I couldn't keep my promise to you - I'm so sorry...I feel like such a loser and I am so, so sad today. Connie, I am going back on the liquid phase tomorrow again, I'm sorry you're having such tummy problems, that's absolutely no fun. M.
