10 lbs lost since Thursday on Liquid diet!!

My doctor didn't tell me that I had to go on a liquid diet. However, I researched more and more and found out hat a lot of people were doing the liquid diet two weeks before and two weeks after their surgery. Patients/doctors said that people tend to loose weight better after surgery because a lot of the toxins are flushed out of your body. Also the liver shrinks which makes the surgery safer. Anyway, So I decided to go on the diet. My diet consists of broth, V8 (fruit and the veggie) sugar free non-caffinated drinks, sugar free popsicles, protein shakes, Jell-o and a lot of water. I also have incorporated cardio and light weight lifting/toning 3-4 times a week. I have already lost 10 lbs! I know that it is probably mostly water weight, but it is still very exciting! I cannot wait until 08/26 (band date).. On my 6 month suriversary, I am going to go to a photo shoot! That has always been a dream of mine! Good luck to all of my new bandster friends!! Muuaah!!
