I am so excited! I went out to dinner with a large group of people and was COMPLETELY satisfied with a few bites of soup. It was VERY good and I enjoyed myself alot. Normally I would have been having the cheese sticks, and steak and a baked potato, and probably ordered desert because everyone else was having desert! My scales haven't moved for a week (and i'm on full liquid) but it still felt really great. Almost as if I know that even though I don't appear to be dropping weight I know it will come in time. The best part about it was that I did not feel as if I was missing out on anything! I was happy with what I had, before I feared that I would be looking at the steak thinking "why did I do this?"

Well done Jini! Well done indeed! Not everyone looses during the liquied phase; indeed, it is a time for healing above all else.

Once you move to solid foods you will find that the scales lie and tell you that you have gained wieght, when in realiity it is your colon is that full again.

Congratulations! It's always great to get those little surprises.

I was a little down because when I went to Thanksgiving dinner no one really said anything about my weight loss even though they hadn't seen me for like three months. I got happy again though when I went to get a passport on saturday. The lady took my liscense with a photo and said "wow, you lost a lot of weight". I smiled and said "yes, I did, thank you." I was so happy.
