So here it is...the moment of truth!! I am officially on the liquid diet. I have had one chocolate shake(optifast)and 8oz of water. I am working an overnight shift tonight 7p-7a...so this shall be interesting. In the past I would have just ate everything in site in order to stay awake and happy! Now, i will sip my water and quietly contemplate going for a walk away from my desk every now and again. I am excited to start the process. I have been meeting with nutrionist, and dr's, and having a bunch of testing done to get to this point. So it actually has been a 4 month long process of getting to the point of cracking open my first yummy liquid diet drink.

Went through my closet today after watching an episode of hoarders. That show just motivates me to clean!! Anyway, I found so many clothes that I use to wear and it was encouraging. You forget how small you use to be once you have been overweight for awhile! I found a size 12 pants. I can't even begin to believe I was once a size 12.I guess those will be my goal jeans. I am a size 22 now. I also planned a cruise for my mothers 50th birthday. That will be the end of november. I am excitd to think of what I may be wearing on that cruise!! Maybe a pair of shorts...or dare I say it...a BATHING SUIT!!!!!:confused:
