Help
((((((((((((((((((((((Hugs Everyone))))))))))))))))))))))))))
I had a fill the other day, and my doctor (Dr. Jay in Dallas) requires 7 days of liquids after the fill. I am feeling really good. I can't believe I've made it 3 days. I know I've never been this good or followed rules after a fill before. Something in me is really different.
I'm absolutely motivated.
I also had an unfill...the same day, I posted details of that on another post. Anyway, I'm feeling great. Day 3 of liquids and aside of a deep desire to chew last night, which I was able to sit on, I feel good.
So far today I've had:
Coffee with Coffee Creamer
ISOPURE - 40 gms protein (I've drank half so far)
Jenny Craig Minestrone Souptizer (A 50 calorie broth based soup) with a sprinkle of parm cheese.
I am really amazed that I feel so good. I know motivation has a lot to do with it. Yikes, my son walked into the room with tortilla chips. I have been tempted to get a spoonfull of salsa (it's not chunky). Aside from that, I'm great.
I've even been walking. 15 minutes yesterday and 15 minutes today. For me, that is a big deal. I actually walked to the pool and showed myself in a swim suit. That is a huge NSV for me.
I can't believe it's taken me 14 months to be motivated to take this seriously, but now that I finally am..."it's on"! I will get to my goal.

It has been so good for me to see your continued success. Your support and posts have really helped me. I really feel different this time. In fact, I felt a little dizzy tonight and I was tempted to "eat" but only for a moment. Instead I opened a protein drink and of course I am feeling better.
Tomorrow is my first day back at work after the fill. My work schedule is Friday - Monday basically. I think being away from the house will help with food cravings.
