Day 2 of Liquid Diet

Sep 04, 2012

Today is Tuesday, September 4, 2012 and I am on day 2 of my liquid diet. So far I have lost 46lbs since beginning the Kaiser Options program back in April. April seems sooo long ago and although I am proud of the pounds lost, I cannot help but feel like I should have lost more. Surgery is Monday, September 10th and I am soo nervous that I keep thinking perhaps I can cancel, I can do this on my own...but I know what will happen...I will more then likely regain the weight I've lost, if not add more. I know I NEED to do this, but I'm so scared at the same time!
As for the liquid diet, I am so glad I only needed to do one week, I'm not sure I could have done two weeks like a lot of people from my class had to do.  The Options program @ Kaiser is really wonderful and so full of information. The support you receive and the education was really what put me on this successful path. Today I am hungry, sooo soo hungry hahah and I have a terrible headache (I'm thiking from lack of carbs).  I am allowed a hard boiled egg and even though I am usually not a fan of eggs, I am really looking forward to my egg for dinner tonight!
I have heard that as the days go by, the liquid diet gets easier, but I am not sure what kind of mood I will be in on Sunday - my husband and kids better watch out lol.
So here is my daily meal plan:
Breakfast - protein shake (less then 5 carbs)
Lunch - 1 cheese stick and protein shake again
Snack - sugar free jell-o
Dinner - 2 cups fat free chicken broth & 1 hardboiled egg

And all day long - WATER,WATER, WATER!!!!
