I am finishing day 7 and it hasn't been as bad as I thought. Everyone made it sound awful but it really has made me more aware of what my body truly does and does not need to survive. I think its amazing how I went from "needing" 4 big chicken strips and a large order of fries to have energy to my stomach growling and then being calmed down by an 11oz protein shake. I really truly have been surviving on 33 ounces of protein shakes, 64 ounces of water, 2-3 sugar free jellos, and a couple cups of broth a day. Its amazing to begin to understand that less really is more. With less food, I have more energy. Less crap, more health. Seems so simple.
Only a few more days until my surgery. 10 days and a few hours. :) That just seems a lot shorter than 14 days. In 10 days I will be going to bed for the last time with my full stomach. In 10 days I will be going to bed for the last time as Fat Mom. Am I ready for that?
