SO MANY CLOTHES! Trying to purge and I never realized how much clothing I had ! Suits for work I never wore, still with tags on them. Dresses I paid hundreds for. So much stuff never worn, still with tags. I have quite and active social life so I have everything from casual to formal wear. Feeling really overwhelmed by the sheer volume of it all.

Gratitude List Addition: Several people have told me now that I look "normal" meaning that when I'm seen "overweight" is not the category they's put me in. I've still got more to lose, but, it is nice to no longer the biggest person in the room.

Why is water such a pain to drink!? Everything else, easy!! Why!! The struggle is real!

Have you tried boullion? I have found that very satisfying. In fact, I take some canned beef broth (4 oz) add 4 oz water and half teaspoon of beef boullion to it. VERY satisfying. Lately I've added a teaspoon of unflavored protein. Now I'm getting fluid and 10 grams protein. You can try chicken and vegetable flavors too.

Actual food will make you feel better. Also, I've been told that after a while the shakes will no longer be effective for weight loss. I also have struggled a bit with the no drinking for 30 minutes before and after eating. I try planning it around activities. For example: I wake up in morning, so have not had anything to drink for 30 minutes, so I have breakfast. Then I get my shower, dressed, etc. and the 30 minutes after time is up. Good luck.
