Day 6 of the Full Liquid Diet.

Aug 17, 2009

Day 6 of the Full Liquid Diet.

Woke up not grumpy (just sleepy because I slept in on Sabbath and Sunday, and I hate Mondays anyway), and not hungry...but I was thirsty.  I think my face looks a bit thinner in the mirror...just a bit.

I weighed in the morning and was down just over 9 pounds.  However, at the surgeon's office later in the day the doc's scale said I've lost 11 pounds.  Woo hoo!  This means that I'm almost to my pre-op weight loss goal.

I don't care much for this liquid diet.  I feel nauseated after the protein drinks, and the tummy-wobbles stick around for hours afterward.  Also, I think I am ruining tomato soup for myself, so I am going to stop eating that.  Also, I've discovered that while I LOVE butternut squash ravioli, I DESPISE butternut squash soup!  I am having trouble getting enough calories and protein.  I am drink-drink-drinking my water, but I don't have any appetite for the things I am allowed to eat.  I am, however, craving Chinese food and popcorn, but am doing a good job of not cheating.

Optimistic.

:-D
