Small Wow moment!

I will be starting my 2nd week of my liquid diet tomorrow and as I was updating my weight tracker I looked at my new BMI since I started this journey and it is 59.  Finally I was able to get it below 60 I didn't think I would be able to do that especially before surgery!  I have lost 11 lbs in 7 days I think I should have lost more especially since I'm on clear liquids but maybe not?  I know I'm not drinking as much as I should cause at times I feel dehydrated so this week I'm going to focus on getting more fluids in.  Wish me luck this 14 day all liquid diet is for the birds...LOL  Bev~

Honey - 11 lbs in 7 days is an amazing weight loss!!!  I'll certainly be praying for you as you start this week!! 

Bev... I think 11lbs in a week is GREAT!!!! Remember that is 11lbs gone forever!!!!!  Yeah your right the liquid diet is not all that fun lol lol...But the second week is a little easier...And you can do it!!! Work on those liquids, it will help with the hunger, energy and the better hydrated you are at surgery time the better it will be. Got ya in my prayers....Luv & Hugs...Tammy~ammy

WTG Bev! 11 pounds sounds so small when such a large amount needs to be lost! but in fact girl you are doing MAAAAVOLOUS!  11 pounds gone forever. keep up the great work! 2nd week is easier...coz ya got stuff to do to get ready for the big day! are ya packed? poochies taken care of? laundry done with comfy clothes washed and at the ready for coming home? I am so excited for you...you have waited so long and you are soo close! CONGRATULATIONS!!! nutti

Bev: Congrats on the 11 lbs lost in 7 days!  That is great!  I'm glad it's getting easier as the days go by.  One week from TODAY you will be on the loser's bench!   I will have to get busy polishing a spot for you! Talk to you soon, Debbie D. P.S.  Thanks for meeting at Manna Nut.  I really enjoyed the visit with you.  FYI, the Roadside Lemonaide and the Twisted Cherry is delicious mixed together! 

Bev, Hang in there!  You will lose more than you think by the end of this week!  I started out with a BMI of 59 and now it's around 30!!!!! :)  Believe me when I tell you this week is the hardest, but stick to it, and drink lots of protein shakes to keep you from feeling hunger.  I also used the flavor packs (at Walmart) for my water.  You can also have sugar-free popcicles...they count as liquid! My name is Shelley, and I had Gastric Bypass last December and have now lost 158 lbs.  I wish you luck in your progress and new life.....I love mine!
