I start the liquid diet tomorrow and extremely nervous about this part of my journey. Just ate my "last supper" steak and cheese with onion rings...yum! Now I feel miserable! Not guilty...full! Lol kinda looking forward to not having this particular feeling anymore.

I'm on a 2 week Optifast diet. Tried the chocolate shake, Peanut Butter and chocolate Protein bar and Tomato Soup. Also allowed sugar free Popsicles and sf Jello. Ate a Popsicle and yuck lol. Of course I don't like diet drinks either. Nothing tasted like a cheeseburger today...so disappointed! ????

Water yes. Eating often and on a schedule so to speak, no...woke up with a horrible headache this morning so did not have my first shake until like 230. Had 2 at that time and tried to space out the rest. I guess I should eat the sf Popsicles and Jello in between. Did resort to a small salad for dinner. Helped a bit but not supposed to eat anything but the Optifast.

Hopefully tomorrow will be better if I have a somewhat normal day (headache free).

Today I am on day 6 of Optifast, I cheated yesterday. Ate a salad and had a Soup, doesn't sound bad right? Well, I too am only allowed 5 shakes a day, sf Jello and lots of Water. Nothing else! I feel guilty but I have to move on and not do it again. Easier said that done but we can do this.

I think lastmeals are important. You wont ever get to eat like that again...ever. Im 5 months out and although happy I can enjoy meals out, I am also sad I didnt do any last meals. Do your self a favir. Eat a big ol sandwich. You will never again be able to eat that amount of bread and you have to deconstruct everything. Plus, bread is gross when you have to break it down to applesauce consistency. So enjoy before your journey begins

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
