Thanks Laura! I am glad that you are inspired to try it out.
I am sorry I am late today with my update.  I got busy earlier and forgot to come to OH to post.  I will post an update in a minute.

Great Cira!!! I started after I read your post yesterday. I had a protein shake for breakfast so I figure I should just go for it. I was surprised that I wasnt ready to chew my arm off. So, today is day 2 for me and I am not hungry and I feel more energy. I do crave coffee.... . Hopefully that will be better today. I weighted myself this morning and I am down 3 pounds..... Thank you for inspiring me Cira.

Cira...I am doing great!! How have you been? I miss getting on the board....it is very helpful to get on board to keep me on track. But need to get back on track too. Imma try this starting tomorrow.

Looks fun, Nikki. I am very interested. Are we required to purchase a ticket in advance online or can we pay at the door? Is there limited space? Thanks so much.

What a wonderful day it is!!!! 

Guess what I am feeling?   Restriction!!!!   Yeah!!!

Yesterday Gino went to the market to buy some stuff for today's soft proteins.  All we kept thinking was is tomorrow here yet?  We just want to EAT!  LOL  We had a good day yesterday, we were not hungry for the most part. Not like day 1 for sure. 

So today we get up thinking about the wonderful omelet we were going to have for breakfast.  I must say I was pleasantly surprised. I was not feeling hungry.  So we ate our breakfast less than 4 ounces and we were full.  We felt that full feeling in our chest like when we were first post op. 

Gino lost another pound and I lost another 1/2 pound.

I just finished eating 4 oz of Salmon with onions and I am super full.  I had to take a deep breath cause it has been forever since I really felt that full feeling.

So day 3 is awesome and I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.

I did another 1/2 hour Wii dancing with my daughter. later this afternoon I am going to take a walk.   So at least I am getting some exercing in.

Thanks for reading my updates. I truly hope that this helps anyone who needs to go back to basics.

Have a great day on purpose.

Cira
