wow! 8 pounds down.   I'm feeling great but thank you Ann for your previous warnings.

I (like Monica) have a hard time to go...  let's just say that I have benefibre with every boost and in one of my waters.   we will keep it at that.   I didn't add any for the first 2 days and ouch!  I was afraid to be like some of you that it was the other way around so I thought I would test it for a few days.
 
I feel good though.  Today, I feel energetic.   I'm still going to bed at 830-9 to avoid the temptations.  Did you ever notice how many food commercials play on TV???   Believe me, I noticed lately!!!!  hahahaha

Keep up the good work! I am cheering for you.

Just a note about the problem that requires extra fiber......I had the opposite problem on the 2 week diet, but the same problem post-op. We each have to navigate this journey for ourselves....but all the info and support sure does provide a map showing the various routes!

Rach! only now can I say I'm pooping again. First month after surgery I pooped little rabbit pebbles haha I sort of wanted to poop more because you lose weight lol.

Yeah will you notice food commercials during your boost phase and about 3 weeks after surgery. Those commercials killed me and then suddenly I stopped noticing them and caring about food. Now I'm pretty lose so I really have to watch myself.

Glad to hear you are doing good. I get  my first fill tomorrow I'm SO EXCITED. I just reached the 40 mark this morning!!!

Can't wait for you to join the party!! Its coming soon!

The hardest thing to do is resist food ...we love it . You are doing great Rachael. Keep up the good work .
Yes , the TV commercials would litterly kill a person when you are hungry. Do you still cook for your DH every night ?

Is it 4 Boosts a day? We have a different liquid diet. It's a combo of boost, soup, applesauce, and protein shake.
Weight lost since surgery (Oct. 1, 2009): 47 lbs
