I worry about that too but then I remind myself why I am going to do it (not until April). When you see what is on the other side of those two weeks, it seems a lot easier to stick to.

Christmas is behind you as far as food goes so that makes it easier. You people that did it though those 2 days are rockstars!!!!

I felt like my 14 day liquid diet was much easier. I started on dec 5. It was a different mindset. 14 days so there is an end. I’m having surgery so I NEED to do this. I didn’t have to deal with Portion Control or if I should count that cookie as points. It was just a black and white yes or no of what I could eat. It actually went fast for me! Good luck.

I am doing ok with it. I still set down with the family for meals. Tonight I put my Protein Shake blended with ice, into a bowl with a spoon. It felt more like a was having a meal with them. My daughter thought it looked so good she had to try it. She said it needs spray whipped cream on top and she would be jealous because she wasn't eating that instead. Lol. This morning I was trying to figure out a cream for my hot tea. I think it is just the color change in my head. . I ended up putting a little of my vanilla Protein Drink in it. O'my, it tastes just like it used to when I would put french vanilla cream in it. I am having a hard time with the Protein Drinks. I get something like a dumping syndrome every time I drink one. Not sure why it's doing this. I have not had dumping syndrome except when I eat spinache or rice since the first surgery in 2007.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
