Hey Margaret. Were you gonna post more?

Awesome!

This is on my list!

So I'm finally joining the thread! 7lbs gone for me! And in 6 days from surgery! 270

I'm 5'5" and a half.

3 cups chicken broth 45 cal 1.5 cup miso soup broth 45 cal 32oz crystal lite water 20 cal 16oz apple juice/water mix ? 16oz cranberry/water mix ? 4 fudgecicles - 240 cal alone. Maybe 500 cal max? So I probably shouldn't have had 4 of the popsicles, right?? I had a huge energy dip around 130 and went to take a break outside. Had some broth and felt better. But so far so good. I'm on day 5 of clear liquids.

Hi there. This is my first blog ever--of any kind. Let's begin. Today was a day from Hell! I was gone Thurs and Fri of last week getting banded with Dr. Hollywood. So there was a ton of work for me to catch up on. Phone was nuts, patients were nuts, office mates were nuts. It was a NUT of a DAY! Plus the storms! Here's what I ate today. 3 cups chicken broth 45 cal 1.5 cup miso soup broth 45 cal 32oz crystal lite water 20 cal 16oz apple juice/water mix ? 16oz cranberry/water mix ? 4 fudgecicles - 240 cal alone. Maybe 500 cal max? Is that good? I don't know. I'm feeling pretty good though. Almost like I can go beyond 7 days of clear liquids. I emailed the Dr to see what she says about that.

My 22's are too big now--and ready to pass on. Are there any 18-20's out there? This forum doesn't seem to have much going on--so thought I'd put it out there.

Has anyone ever done the liquids for longer? I'm on day 5 and feeling awesome. Like I want to continue just to see if I can do it.

I was seriously gonna email you for the recipe Deb! How many servings do you get out of the 9in pie?

This looks awesome! Totally going into my recipe box and onto my list for next week!

OCC is 5. Good luck!

This is the website for the 5DPT. My link Maybe it would help you get back on board? I'm also chewing on gum and pretty much drinking broth whenever I feel hungry.

Where did you get your band? I'm sorry you are feeling so down. I'd totally call the doctor.

Great job Janet! I can't wait to make a post like that!

Hi Mandy, That was my group leaving. Everything happened so fast on our way out of the door I wish I could have said hi. You basically detailed my entire experience too. I felt so good the next day that we came home. I haven't told many people either. So we are hear for each other. Great job! Theresa

You look great! I just got banded yesterday! I'm needing to get some pictures done, but I don't want to quiet yet!

I'd chalk that up to one of the greatest vacations in history! And you were in a bikini! Good idea getting back on the fill wagon. You can do it! You look amazing!

this is what my plan is too.

Oh no! Should you go back to liquids? Try the 5 day pouch test?

How awesome! Congratulations!

Thanks Beth! Good to know!
