Today is day seven of my liquid diet.  It's getting easier.  I think the first three days are always the most difficult.  I have gotten past cravings, but I also find myself not wanting the liquids available.  I'm tired of borth and a little tired of the shakes. 

My motivation has been found in the amazing amount of weight I am losing.  I can finally use my bathroom scale again, which has a limit of 330.  That's been very encouraging.  So, now I'm fascinated by the fact that I'm losing so quickly and that my weight doesn't rise during the day.  Eventually, I'll have to curb my excessive weight checks, but for now, I'm enjoying the results.

I'm hoping that my total weight loss before surgery will reach 100 pounds, but I don't want to focus on that goal.  I'm going to let my body do what it will and follow the eating plan.  I find so much solace on this site.  I'm very thankful for this community where I feel like I can speak freely about my weight without judgment or cruel remarks.  :-)
