Hello! thank you so much for contacting me! It went well. I am walking a lot, trying valiantly o keep up with the water & protein protocols, sip by sip!

I am learning to follow the hour-by-hour meal and H2O planning I did wit the Dietician, so I get everything, otherwise , a lot of the day goes by and I am H2o behind, is that common at tis stage? I am a fast learner, and am in this to improve my health, so I learn more each day.

Again, thank you so much for contacting me - any words of wisdom or advice? eliz

I have Sjogren's and Psoriatic Arthritis, two autoimmune disease, which, along with their treatment, leave me immunocompromised. I am on ENBREL for te situation, which helps. But due to surgery, they held the med for two weeks prior, to my surgery -which got bumped a week, and now I am two weeks out, hence I am a month without Enbrel. Long story sort, I am always in pretty bad pain, unrelated to my surgery. On Monday I see my Ruematologist, she will evaluate me and probably restart the meds. Yippee! Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Eliz

First things first. Never trust a fart. It won't be a fart.

Secondly , be ready for clothes to not fit any longer. It is going to happen fast but don't buy to much at once.

You will hit a stall but it's normal. Finally if you haven't had a bit poop yet you will and it will be mostly water and like a gusher.

Oh and on water I was never able to consume what they told me to consume. So drink as much as you can and that's all you can do.

I had my surgery in 2014 and it was the best thing I ever did. No regrets with the exception of I wish I had done it sooner.
