I called and I have a date

 Congrates.. 

thats  my daughters 20th  birthday. A very Special day indeed. I will come see you.. Im so excited. Did  you do what i said? Let me know how your LD is coming along.. Journal.. Its really helps.. Honest

So far so good. This liquid diet was sprung on me...I was supposed to be 21 days on it but I will only get 19.  Even though my tummy has hurt a bit off and on I am super pumped about the liquids (yes I am weird)  First of all i love the Ensure.  Secondly I am a nazi...if I am stuck on something I will stick to something...this may change in a few days, but I like knowing what I will eat, even if it is only Ensure.  I can have 5 a day and 1 cup of skim milk (I asked for that instead of yogurt because I love milk and tea and that is easier to do with my job than yogurt would be)  And the third reason is that I have been totally stuck at 312 to 315 since Christmas.  It is depressing that no matter what I seem to try I just cannot get out of the 300's. I am praying that this is the ticket and that I am out of the 300's before surgery.  I'm gonna have my hubby do a before LD picture and a before surgery picture for me so I can see if there is a noticable difference.

So wish me luck...today was easy, but everyone has said that day 4 is hard.  If I am not here on Monday its because I have gone to Ponoka due to insanity!  LOL!  j/k

You will do fine.

Your at the point you need to be. and this is the next step for a better future. I cant believe Like I said that I started on my LD I was 343 and when surgery hit I was 328 so it does help.. And as for standing still our bodys do what they want.. We can push them and create change but sometimes" Stalls" are out of our control.. Just breath.. Remember why we all do this. We need to have a Non Large Liver.. and Not GAIN A POUND>. LOL  Im so looking forward to hearing how days 4-6 go.. that was my toughest.

Hugs,, Keep busy it helps..

YAAAAAAHOOOO 4 YOU!!!! WAY TO GO!!!!!!

Hey,

I am so happy you called!!!!!  This is so exciting.  I am a little lucky in that I get to ease into the shakes a little.  I get 4 shakes, 1 Cup skim milk, 100cal snack of fruit or veggies and a 500 cal meal.  This lasts until May 11th when I will go to 6 shakes and 1 Cup skim milk.  I prefer the Glucerna over the Ensure except for the Chocolate I like the Ensure more. 

Congratulations,

Katrina
