Day 5 of Liquid Diet

By Loyalfriend

· 336 views

Thank God for friends. I've been so grouchy since I've been on this liquid diet. I hope I still have a boyfriend after it's all said and done. He gets the most of my rants and attitude from wanting food, but he continues to drag me to the gym and encourages me to workout. He told me to take my rage out on the weights, LOL!!

 

My bestfriend has been awesome because she had the lap-band for a few years, so she understands my misery. She reminds me the outcome is well worth it.

 

I know a few people with the lap-band, so I'm confident I'll do well. I just miss food. But I remind myself my love for food caused all my health problems so I MUST make this change.

 

To my online lap-band supporters. Thanks for your support and listening to me rant too.

 

I'm fasting this morning for some tests, so I'm extra hungery and will probably be extra grouchy when I see my boyfriend for my workout... :wub:

    LOL @ the grouchy. I think its definitely a chemical/emotional bond thing with food and attitude. But I like your boyfriend's idea of working out hard -- that will help! Best of luck to you -- you sound like you have a great support system which is a big part of the solution :-)

    Hang in there, you've made it this far, you can do it!! I haven't had to do this yet, I probably won't have my surgery until January because of all the hoops I have to jump through for insurance, but I'm sure I will be exactly the same way you are, probably day one. My mom always knows when I'm hungry, if I'm talking to her on the phone she'll ask me if I've eaten because I'm acting like a bear!!! LOL She better get ready!!! Good luck with everything!!!
