I'm starting day 4 and I'm already down 10 pounds!

Things are going a bit better! I was out ice fishing yesterday and the gang had some food out on the tables all day and I resisted! All I had was one cheese curd and a ton of celery/cucumbers. I have found a create recipe with the Vanilla shakes thanks to Diane. Adding a bit of Nescafé in the shakes really makes it go easier. I wonder if it will do the same tomorrow when I try to mix it up with the chocolate shakes!

On the same note, I will be posting my first video blog on YouTube today so check back soon to see the link.

Hey Derek...way to go...wow 10 pounds already. At this rate you will reach your goal of 30 pounds really fast. The more you lose now the less later.

Kudos to you for resisting...it's hard when food is around you but I guess that is the way our lives are going to be from the moment we start the liquid diets. How is your energy level? Do you have any headaches?

Looking forward to your vlog as soon as you put up the link.

Take care,
Hugs,
Ada

Hi Ada,
Yeah I know eh??? 10 pounds!!! LOL
My energy level is better! I felt weak the first couple of days but yesterday and today I was much better! I play hockey tomorrow night so that might be the ultimate test for me. The headaches have gone as well. I think I'm over the hump. I'm crossing my fingers!

My vlog is up. Check my thread out!

Derek

Wow, congrats for 10 pounds already! But the biggest win is resisting all that food!  This is the hardest part of the shakes, you still have your normal stomach, but have to resist eating... It'll be easier after surgery. Happy to see you feel better, and waiting to see your vlog!
Good work!

Thanks Diane. The hunger is still there but it's not too bad. 4 days gone 24 to go. I'm gonna do it! 1/7 of the way there already!

Derek

Had a great day  so far I have had 3 shakes will have another one at 9 or 10.  I have to get 4 in.  I like the taste no problem.  I like them.  Also I have a majic bullet and it is wonderful. 
    Was at my fat Dr. in Ottawa today. for results of my nuclear heart testing.  Everything is normal. All my blood work is good.  It pays to take vitamins and supplements for over 20 years. WOOHOOO
I am just too fat.  lol 
     Derek keep up the good work. You are a trooper.  We will make it.  Tally hoo.  2 weeks from today I will be recoperating and waving you on.  Good luck to all that are waiting.  And never give up. I never once looked back.  My eye is on the prize.  I hope to knock off a good amount by June.  My grand-daughter is getting married in Las Vegas. The fat me dosn't want to go but the new skinny me says you are going.        Doris  QC.

Thanks Doris! You will be close to goal by the time you go to that wedding in June! I'm glad your enjoying your shakes. Mine are going down much better now! Keep up the great work! 

You are doing great Derek. Keep it up.  Resisting temptations is hard. But your strong.
