Tomorrow is the day! It seems like forever ago that I started this weight loss journey. It was 6 months in the making and even longer since I filled out the initial weight loss surgery paperwork. Now tomorrow is my surgery.
These last 10 days I’ve been on liquid diet. It hasn’t been horrible but let me tell you, the cravings are now kicking my butt. I just want to chew something! Today, I even chewed on a piece of summer sausage and then spit it out. Aye aye aye!
I have been so grateful to have Medifast along the way. Having their ready to drink shakes, smoothies, etc has really saved me on this liquid diet. I don’t know what I would have done without them. Plus, Medifast is going to be a huge part of my recovery after the surgery as well. I’ll still be on a liquid diet for awhile after.
I’ve lost a little weight being on the liquid diet. My body is still super stubborn and refuses to let me drop much. So without an official scale and weigh in, I’d say I’ve lost about 8-10 lbs just these last 10 days. But my body has also yo-yo’d during that time too.
We’re going to stick with my starting weight before surgery of 252 and here are my measurements.
Chest 42.5″
Waist 41″
Hips 52″
Thighs together 51″
Right thigh 29.5″
Left thigh 29″
And my Week 1 (day before surgery picture)
Here’s hoping for some much smaller numbers the next time I check in! Wish me luck!
