My First Week
Day 7. Today marks my first week on the gastric bypass diet.
It has been a hard week, but a satisfying one. It has been hard because I am always hungry. But, it has also been satisfying because I have done so well and it is becoming something that I know I can do.
Everyone I know thinks I am crazy to do this. But I think I would be crazy not to do this diet. I have about 170 pounds to lose. The only way that I am ever going to do that is if I find something that works for me. This diet is what I believe is going to work for me. And isn't that half the battle - to have faith that what you are doing is right?
I have looked around the web and have seen the weight loss averages that occur on this diet. It is astounding the amount of weight that is lost during that time period. So, judging by those numbers, I can conceivably lose around 100 pounds in 6 months. That completely blows my mind!
So, now that I have reached the end of my first week, I am 25 more weeks away from losing at or near 100 pounds. That makes the hunger pangs so much easier to take. And that is SO satisfying!

If it doen't kill you, it can only make you stronger. Take a minute, read Shanin's blog and Kim's log. Links are on my page. Look at Kim's pix and remember that you are eating like her and soon will start a little exercise. F#%#k anyone that makes you feel stupid because you believe in this. Keep it up !!
Congratulations on completeing your FIRST WEEK! That is awesome. I need to start trying some soups. I'm only on day three and shakes are getting boring. Good luck for the upcoming week!!!
Yeah, the shakes do get boring.
The soups make all the difference in the world. Because you really feel like you are eating real food.
