Thanks jamie, 63lbs very good. Keep it up or should I say down.

Starr congrats on getting your band date! I'll be thinking of you on the 30th!! Good luck and I'm so happy for you!!

YOU NUT! I'm not cheating! Come on if I can do it you can!

I found out that we can have SOUP! a can of tomato soup with 1/2% milk is 325 calories. I had this for dinner tonight and I'm so excited about it.

So for today I had:

7:30 Whey protien drink calories 210 protien 30

glass of water

9:00 Carnation istant Calories 170 P-12

bottled water

11:30 Carb solutions Calories 110 P-21

12:30 diet coke

2:30 Carb solutions Calories 110 P-21

5:30 Can of tomato Soup Calories 325 P-10

water

pudding 1/4 cup (tip, buy a bunch of the sugar free jello's and puddings already made, save the containers and then make instand pudding and jello in those used containers)

If I added right I had 975.

I feel much better than I did this time last night!!

Now here is a question for you experienced folks.....can we had mashed potato's, yogart and cottage cheese now also? I'm guessing yes to yogart and no to the others.

I know I shouldn't think about the scale, and I've been the one to always say I wasn't going to look at it, but on Monday (day 1 of liquids) I looked to get a begining # and then like an idiot I looked today. The # was the same! I know I should have waited until next apt. with doc, but I didn't!

So Starr when we all meet on the 24th, we can order cream soup!
