Day 6- not too bad. I was hungry yesterday, but I didn't cheat! My first two days I lost 5 pounds. After that it's been slower. Not sure why, but after 5 days I've lost 6.4 pounds. That's exciting. I'm almost at my weight loss for next week. I'm just nervous I won't get to my goal my nut set for me.

That's awesome! Congratulations on the weight loss!

Well it's been 4 days and I think I've gotten through the worst of it. Day 2 was horrible. I was so hungry, but I made it through. I have found out that it's a habit of mine. Just grab something because it's there. One thing I found out is when I'm preparing food for someone else and I made a mess or had a taste of something. I would just lick my fingers. Now I wash it off my fingers. Lucky you that has ten days of shakes. I have a month. On a funny note, last night I dreamed I ate a brownie and then I realized I couldn't have them. Immediately I spit it out and threw it in the trash! Thank goodness it was only a dream! Lol! ????????

Just finished my first shake. It feels really weird not eating. My entire life has revolved around food. It's almost like what do I do now?

May 19! I can't hardly wait!

Congratulations! That's not too far away!

May 19! I can't hardly wait!

Congratulations! Do you have to start any special kind of diet?

I'm so excited, today I picked up my opti-fast shakes to start tomorrow for 4 weeks. Five shakes a day and one low fat, carb free, sugar free meal once a day. I hope everyone is having as much excitement as I am. Well wishes to all!

I thought about one more thing. I used to drink alcohol a lot that it became an addiction. I just went cold turkey because my husband asked me to. Is there someone that you can be a reason you'll quit?

I'm happy for you! I go tomorrow to pick up my shakes to start Saturday. This is it!!! I'm nervous too but right now my excitement is greater!

I'm so glad to hear that about the craving. Pizza is a weekly thing at our house too. I feel fortunate that my husband said there's no need to fix separate meals. He'll eat what I fix.

I have severe acid reflux. I even had surgery to prevent it. It didn't work. My surgeon said the only way to get rid of it was the bypass. From my research people seem to lose more weight with the bypass.

I LOVE pizza too! My favorite food ever! I'm sure as we go along there'll be others that will be my favorite too.

I have to do 3 weeks of 5 Protein Shakes and 1 healthy meal. Then I do 1 week of Protein shakes and Clear Liquids. And yes, I'm doing the last suppers this week because I start the diet on Saturday, April 18.

I'm May 19. Excited and nervous all at once.
