Ok so today is day 3, and the diarrhea is finally gone.

I just entered yesterday's meals into MyFitnessPal and it said - if everyday were like today you'd weigh: 617 pounds in 5 weeks! (starting: 660)

Well if I add in some extra workouts and really push it, I think I can make it to 600 by my surgery - which would be totally cool!

I'm so excited so far, I really need to get started exercising - that's my most dreaded thing though lol.

Day two was a little rough, but today I do feel better, and more focused and less weak.

Congrats! Just keep on pushing, I know the pre-op diet sucks, but it will be SOOO WORTH IT in the long run! Best of luck and well wishes to you!!!

Day 3 and 4 were the hardest for me. I know you probably heard this before but please don't weigh yourself every day or 2 or 3 times a day like I have.

I am on day 11 of 14 day shake and I get excited then disappointed. I weigh every day and seriously....on less than 650 calories a day on 3 shakes gained 2 pounds one day. Seriously, i got so upset. I weighed myself a minute later and gained another pound lol!!! Maybe cause I'm a girl or a freak or whatever, but I jumped on the scale about 5 times and all gave me different weights, I bought new batteries and it did it again, i moved it, I became obsessed with weighing myself.

This morning I hopped on the scale ONCE...and I hit 230 from 233 yesterday (I was 231 days before).

I went from 240 Monday morning, to Tuesday 237, then down and then up and down. It's a mind game. I hear people lose 15-20 pounds on the 2 week shakes and I'm down 10 pounds only and tomorrow I may end up being 233 again. I haven't cheated once, I exercise every day I drink all my Water, I have exercised a few times a day and I keep busy.

What you are doing is great and you should be so proud of yourself. I am really looking forward to your journey.

Wow sounds like a rollercoaster ride..

Yeah.. i looked at the scale today and it was a bit.. unfriendly ...

I've decided no scales till my last pre-op doctor's visit (June 20th). Instead I'm just gonna push it and workout, lift weights, etc.. keep to my 800 calorie diet.

after the first week. it will become much easier for you. I domt know if you are allowed clear liquids but sugar free popsicles saved me because I wanted to chew on something.

Congrats!!! Proud of you!!! It will get better each day.... after surgery, you will hardly remember this time!! Best wishes!!

Like Dory said "justkeep swimming, just keep swim-ming"

Sorry but I watched finding Nemo again yesterday, and no,I don't have small children. I watched it cuz I love it. Lol

Congrats to you....it's very difficult but your motivation is inspiring!goodluck
