Day 4 liquid diet has come and gone!

Aug 28, 2011

Well Day 4 of the liquid diet has come and gone. And this was the day I had to drink my first bottle of the Magnesium Citrate. Wow I know this is disgusting but I had a literal blow out. No food in your system for 3 days and all that comes out is water and when you have gas behind that you can imagine what happened. We had company today for dinner my husband cooked Chicken, Twice baked pototoes and Salad. Yes it smelled awesome and sure I would have loved a bite but I was suprisingly ok getting through dinner. I had some chicken broth so I could feel like I had something. Everyone was very apologetic for eating in front of me and I told them that it was something I would have to get used to because there were going to be holiday's and birthdays that I would have to miss out on. I know that eventually I should be able to eat that stuff but I will probably mjss a couple of birthday celebrations and the labor day weekend cookouts so I would have to be ready. I was telling Kenny how it worked and he said it's just like being a baby. I said yes it like you are reborn and you already know the rules to eating. That you have to eat slow, eat smaller portions, and only eat until you are full. Stay away from processed foods, and refined sugars and I should be home free to my weight loss. I have learned all the rules I just need something that will help me follow the rules and I believe that the RNY is going to be my saving grace. I just wish I could have done this back in 1986 after my son was born so I did not have to carry around all this extra weight for the last 25 years. But 'if wishes were horses' I think is the saying. I am not going to look back anymore it is a new life for me starting tuesday!  Well better hit the sack because tomorrow with be my last day at work until September 27th and I will have a long day getting all the loose ends tied up for the people who will be handling my job while I am gone.  Nite all.
