Very tired trying to get my liquids in. Feeling pretty good some pain.  Just glad to be in my bed and home with my hubby.  Now to make my self walk walk walk. Dr Farhan said to tey to get in protien too but just make sure you too get you liquids. At I will admit I ask myself why did I put myself throught this but not now I can take it  Thank for your support to all.

I want to thank everyone on OH for your support and blessing. I am getting so excited. They have moved my surgery time to 7:30 am instead of 11:30 am. We have to be at Hurley Medical Center by 5:00 am. Glad I only live about 16 minutes away. Well I have made it through the liquid diet I have one more wildberry fruit drink left and these drinks are bad. The first one made me vomit. I have one more to drink and I am done. Thank you all Sherri

My  22 year failed Diet Collection. I am hoping My Journey is more successful. I am being giving a new tool and I need to make it work. It is so scary because I love diff rent types of foods. Now I have to learn to be a healthy eater not a snack er. We are always trying new restaurants. Now My husband says no more. That scares me because that is what we do together if we go out.  But maybe now if I can fit into a Movie seat better we can do that instead. I am taking all these and donating them to the Salvation army on Monday and saying goodbye to them,  and Hello to my future...

Today is August 1, 2009 I am down 16 pounds on this liquid diet. Hoping to hit 20 pounds by Tuesday the 4th Surgery Day. Products are not bad from better MD.  I got Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry Shakes with Chicken Noodle soup. Wish I would of picked two kinds of soup. One kind gets boring. I found if you mix the shakes with a blender they taste so much better,  the fiber fruit drinks mixed with special K protien drink and ice taste much better. The soup with the chicken broth heated first and then mixed then heated agian for 50 seconds make the noodle get done.  I myself have a big problen with cheese I love cheese, so my head hunger keeped me craving it. I did cheat twice and ate cheese. Small slices but I did cheat.

Pro-op testing  I passed all my test. Surgery is a go.  3 days on this liquid diet I am down 9 pounds where was this stuff awhile ago. LOL

Good morning to all It is July 22, 2009 and I am off to do my 5-6 hour pre-op testing. Well I have only been on the liquid diet sence monday the 20th and have lost 9 pounds. This stuff is good. I am not really hungrey but I still crave things. I just got to get it out of my head.  My husband cleaned out our house of all foods I could not eat so he called my daughters and had them come shopping. My 20 year old daughter and her two year old have been letting a  friend stay with her with two boys 4 and 2 she left an  abusive relasionship. So they needed the food. We have been trying to help them I have been garage saleing for items for her new place she is getting in August. Well I am off to teating bye for now.

Went on our Family Reunion River tube reunion. I myself have to go in a rubber boat because me and tube don't mesh well (FIT) So we are going down the river and finally get to the end it was so freak- in cold.  It's time to get out of the tube and my husband has to help me. The embarrassing thing was I couldn't get out myself I had to be pulled and my brother in law had to hold the boat. This has made me make up my mind this was a good choice for me. I am hoping next year I can jump out or even ride on a tube. But I put the reunion on so I did not want to let anyone down. They all just got a good laugh at the end. (Things will be better)

I started my 14 Day Liquid Diet on July 20,2009 day after we came back from camping. Better Md products are not bad but the fiber drinks make me want to vomit. The shakes are not bad  Chicken soup good nice and hot. Felt Little lite headed this morning and a head ace. Notice I am tire but that could be from my trip. My start weight yesterday was 293. 

Went to Nutrition Class learn more new things.I have to start my 2 week liquid diet the day we travel home from our camp trip. Getting excited but scared at the same time. The worst thing about this is I won't be able to take care of my granddaghteer for 6 weeks they say. I hope it is sooner I will have Kelli withdrawls. Instead of food withdrawls. LOL
Vacation before surgery all good....

Well July 1, 2009 is just around the corner. I have been really cutting down but it is now time to get real. I am going to start a very st ricked diet. July 1, 2009 .  I wan t to make myself healthy and be prepared for my surgery Date. Things have been so crazy this month it just seems like we have had so many side jobs. We need to get them completed before Our Trip in July.
I added photos of my daughters today. They mean the world to me along with my Granddaughter Kelli. These are some of the reasons I need to change for them and me. My Husband has been so wonderful he knows this means the world to me. He supports me all the way.
