Started Liquid Diet

I started my liquid diet last night. I was going to wait until after the Labor Day holiday, but saw that once again I was putting social eating above my health. So, I blended my first official liquid diet shake last night.

I put more milk than recommended and it was the wrong thing to do. I felt sooooo bloated. I had been using Unjury, which I love and a cup of milk with that leaves me wanting to snack in about three hours. The Doc told me to get Pro-rated (www.wellements.com) and it has 27g of protien per serving and that extra 7 makes a difference to my tummy. I had a shake at 6:30 this morning and it is now 15 before 9 and I still feel full. I hope I will feel this way for a solid 6 hours, but 4 will do.

My diet plan is 3 shakes a day plus a salad with protien and low-fat dressing. Getting to have the meat for dinner will help a great deal.

I want to tell you my starting weight, but it has flucuated like mad in the last two weeks.

I will go with the 381, but my period is about to start and in the past, I always bump around 10 pounds gained, but after lose all of it.

My goal is 350 pre-surgery. Though, 340 would be awesome, but I am not sure how doable. Right now, I just want to lose as much weight as I can before the surgery. It will be healthier and get me closer to my goal of 170.

So you're already dieting beforehand? Interesting.. I should too... but cant!

Goodness, I had no idea anyone commented!!!! Sorry.
