Doing a LD today

To all of you that have had to do the LD, I give you much kudos & credit! I decided to have only liquids today as I consumed way too much food this past week/end and just felt miserable. So far today I've had a protein shake, water, decaf coffee, green tea, and now I'm on to "lunch" which I'm having chicken broth that I over-peppered. eek

My tummy is grumbling but I'm not hungry. I told Linda Anne we'll see how long it takes before I get crabby - LOL - but so far so good. I just distract myself with a work task I like to do when I feel the urge to munch on something, if it's a task I dislike or get bored with easily, I find I'm more apt to reach for a snack. Big learning curve there for me. Again, if you have gone through this phase, my hats off to you!

Way to go Amy! Keeping busy will help and SF popsicles are the best if you need to crunch.

Good Job! I was so miserable during the liquid diet for you to do this when you don't HAVE to will only make you stronger when your time comes.
