day 6

Oct 09, 2011

i feel like i am writing a diary in a remote cave where i am trying to survive.   lol  day 6, i caught a fish.........the mosquitos are killing me......

anyway, day 6 of skim milk diet.  i am down 13 pounds from day 1.  not shabby.  the first three days were the worst.  4 was rough in the evening.  really reaaly bad.  i added a some fat free broth which helped alot mentally i think.  at least after surgery we can have something that tastes different than milk.

day 5 was the best for me, i felt like i got over a hump.  today is pretty good too.  i went grocery shopping and didnt have all the cravings i would normally have walking through a store.  after a while  i reached my limit but i felt good about it.

sugar free syrups are the bomb.  i have had pumpkin pie, almond roca, coconut, strawberry etc.  only caveat is that i am starting to feel like they are messing with my blood sugar, after a few days i started feeling lightheaded and nauseous pretty quick after drinking them, the last 2 days i had plain milk and didnt seem to have the same effects.  i may try a syrups again tomorrow and  see if that is for sure the culprit.

husband and sister are doing 1 week with me for solidarity.  they have both lost 7 pounds.  week 1 is almost over, 3 more to go, i cant wait to reach the halfway point!
