So far so good...
Dec 05, 2007
I am starting day 3 of my slim fast liquid diet. It hasn't been as horrible as I was afraid it would be. I do get a little hungry but not to bad. I tried some beef broth last night and I thought I was eating a roast!!! It was so good. Something other than artificial sweetner taste.
I still haven't heard from the insurance company as to whether I am approved for surgery yet. I will be calling them on Friday per their request.
I have just about did it!!

I have just about made it through my first liquid diet day. Wow! I got a bit hungry mid day and really wanted some food but I did it. I ended up having a shake at 9, 12, 3, 6 and I have one more to drink at 9. I also had two cups of sugar free raspberry jello.
I am so happy I made it through this first day.
I keep having thoughts of "do I really want to do this," "I could just cut back and lose my weight and not have to do this liquid diet and surgery." Obviously I am trying to think myself out of surgery and into food. But I am not going to let myself do that. I can do this.
