Maybe not keeping it a secret?

Disclaimer- although most people around me know that I'm having surgery, if I ever go back to my hometown to visit (high school reunion, etc). I will not be sharing:). They can just think I was one of the lucky ones who aged well -
I use optifast shakes. They only had vanilla and chocolate (I didn't have the option of the bars and I chose not to do the soups). I drink 5 shakes a day and have water...nothing else. I like to pour it into the blender and add ice because it adds a little more volume. The first 3 days were HARD.

I have been very open about it...Al Roker is my hero because he came out on tv and told the world...whereas Star Jones caught a bunch of flack for lying about it...it's a personal choice...I have had no negative reactions so far, and I have actually has some people come to me for advice because they are thinking about it. -

I started my liquid diet yesterday...it has been rough. I also have two little boys that I have to cook for. Last night after I cooked dinner my husband told me to go ahead and go to bed because I was so grumpy. My suggestion is to just turn in early so that you don't have to think about the hunger...I know that doesn't help much, but it's all I got:)
