2 week liquid diet

Today is the day!  All liquids!  Well, except for the popsicles, jell-o, pickles, and celery.  I have to get in 4 premier proteins and then at least 48-64 oz of other liquids each day.  Other liquids include:

  • Water
  • Diet V-8 Splash
  • Sugar free jello
  • Sugar free popsicles (less than 25 calories per popsicle)
  • Fruit 2-0
  • Crystal light
  • Diet Snapple
  • up to 2 cups of broth
  • decaf tea and coffee
  • Propel water
  • Powerade zero
I don't really know what some of those are and yesterday when I went to look for Diet V-8 Splash to try it out, I couldn't find it so who knows.  This morning I am having 2 vanilla premier protein shakes in a thermos with my decaf coffee.  I also have a 20oz thing of water sitting here and a 32oz grape Powerade zero.  Last night I made strawberry, lemon, and blue raspberry jello, I bought 3 different sizes of dill pickles, and then I have boxes of popsicles, all different kind of broths, all different flavors of Powerade, grape Propel, and some cinnamon tea.


All week long I have been hyping myself up about this in my head.  Almost every free moment has been telling myself I can do this, why I can do this, why I should do this, and then some prayers also. It is such a mind game.........I can live off of this stuff so it isn't like I am going to die or starve but if you are like me, once I am really limited, my mind goes nuts and is like you can't eat this, you can't eat that, EAT ALL OF IT lol ahhhhhhh.  I am good this morning but I did panic when I woke up and I was hungry but it subsided and now I am fine sipping on my fluids.  I only imagine it will be get harder before it gets easier but I know I will get through this and only good things are coming my way.  I will do a YouTube video later tonight to update on my first day so if you haven't, subscribe here and then later tonight head over to my channel and chat with me there. Thank you to everybody that has been reading this far and for putting any good vides out there for me.  14 days to go!

3 months + 2 days

I GOT A SURGERY DATE!  December 27, 2018 at 8am I will be having VSG ( Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy).  SO, on December 6th, I have to get labs, chest X-ray, and an EKG to ensure I am in top notch health.  I also get to talk to the doctor that day just to go over everything for like the 3rd time and I say that in the best way possible.  Nothing makes me feel better than getting as much one on one time with the man who will be doing the surgery and making sure all my questions are answered.  THEN, I have to be at the hospital at 6am on the 27th and the surgery will begin at 8am; it will last around one hour.  I have to stay in the hospital that night and then I should be able to break out the next day.  I can't drive for one week and I can't lift over 10 pounds for two weeks........EVIE!!! :(  I CANNOT wait to be blessed with this tool that will not only HELP me shed the rest of my weight but HELP me keep it off.  I still have to ...

116 lb transformation

So here we are DURING the transformation.  I am excited that there is this HUGE, apparent, difference from August 2017 to now January 2019.  I can't wait to see the transformation that happens in the next 1.5 years.  I have eyes, I have a chin, I have a beck, I have HEALTH!   I am one day away from progressing to Food Stage 3 since VSG.  This means adding in deli meat, tuna, chicken, and really soft veggies.  I did try ham last night and it went just fine.  I tried chicken franks today in some beans for protein and it went fine so I am looking forward to eating more normal.  It is scary to try new foods because maybe it won't agree with my stomach but I want to be able to eat dinners with my family (although it will only be 2-3 oz haha). Pork and beef are off limits for now and I am OK with that.  I made a calendar with our meals for the next month and on it is scallops, cauliflower rice, zucchini, shrimp stir fry, ricotta bake with ...
