It's really happening!

Today I started the LSD and I now feel like this is real. I'm ACTUALLY doing this and having a bypass in 11 days - yikes! So, thought it was time to start a diary.

It's not been the easiest day, i really don't like milk and I feel hungry! But, I'm trying to stay in the zone, stay positive and just get on with it.

Can't wait for the next 10 days to pass, onwards and upwards.......

HI THERE SUZIE I know you will do great ! Those 11 days will fly by!! Just keep thinking of the end goal that nice slim body in that cartier dress (or whatever you like) . Why don't you take up a hobby you like to take up times when your bored and feel the need to eat! Also keep a bottle of water near when you think you are hungry and swig or s/f juice or herbal tea etc. Best wishes hun .x

Just popped up to say very good luck on the LSD the time may feel long at times and you will wonder can I do it but remeber why your doing it.....for a better you a better life along with a new body ....it really will ve wirth it
good luck again

Good luck Su2ie!!! So happy for you!!

Good luck Hun, you can do this

Go su2ie, you can do it, keep focused on that end goal! It will be so worth it. Good luck!

Day 2 and if my sister keeps looking at me with pity and telling me how awful this diet is I will clock her one!

I'm sure this diet could be used as a form of torture, I came home from work and could smell the chippy across the road!

But, despite everything I'm still in the zone and ready to cross another day off on the countdown to surgery

Good luck Suzie, just think you are so near to the next stage in your life! Can't wait till I am where you are! Xx

Feeling REALLY sorry for myself today
Today is my birthday! My husband is away and as I can't go for something to eat or drinks I'm going to bingo with my sister and some friends. Bingo is fine by me, might even be lucky and gave a win eh?
Except they'll all be eating and drinking and wondering why I'm not!!
Oh well, what's a 42nd birthday anyway? I'll have to do something nice next year with the added bonus of being skinny

Back to my milk......

Happy Birthday to you! Another day closer to surgery too! Xx

Happy birthday xx

Hi,

Welcome and good luck.

I found the LSD very difficult myself and had to do it for 28 days. The thing that got me through it was two fold.
1. I was worried that if I did cheat and they got in there and saw my liver was too small then I may have to go through the LSD all over again.
2. The actual thought of why I was doing it. For me that was so that I could live a more active and healthy life with my family and that I am doing this for myself and no one else, so if I cheat I cheat on myself.

But I must tell you the great feeling I had when I had eventually completed the LSD on surgery day and knew that although I did cheat twice, one Chip 3 weeks pre-op and 5 Pringle crisps 2 weeks pre-op, I thought I had done pretty well and my Surgeon was very happy with the results.

So best thing I can tell you is hang in there and remind yourself of the end goal you are working towards and that this is only a small part of the journey that you CAN get through. 11 days will fly by.

Best Of Luck

Hey Su2ie just found your own diary here, so will be checking in with you. Many Happy returns of the day! I celebrated and I use the word celebrated loosely , my 40th this year. What should of been a good time was overshadowed by the fact that I loath being overweight and all that it brings. Just think today is just another day and so yes u are feeling deprived but next year will be a whole different story - you will have achieved goals and be a slim suzie!

Happy birthday. Next year will be so different.

Thanks Jacwat!

Hope you don't have to wait too long to get there to be honest I've been reading others posts for months feeling a little envious and like it would never happen for me but here we are 9 days to surgery and it almost feels like it's flown by.

I do love a bit of bingo so I'm sure we'll have a laugh and you're right it is the last time my celebrations will be spoilt by my weight - I have just spat my dummy out over not finding anything to wear that looks half decent for the last time!!

Damn right!!

Yay! Had a cheeky wee bingo win to put the smile back on my face ?.

Am bloomin' hungry though!

Compensated by a win...you can put it towards the stash of new clothes you'll need soon! Xx

Can't believe I'm on day 5 pre- op diet - that's half way already! On the one hand so glad it's flying by because this diet is brutal but in the other it all feels to be happening to fast and I'm feeling scared - really scared Feel like I cod just cry at any minute and constantly swinging between being really scared and nervous and excited.

This weekend is going to be really tricky and a test of willpower for sure. I'm away in a residential conference for the weekend, leaving soon and won't be back until late Sunday night. How the hell am I supposed to stick to a milk diet in a hotel, complete with buffet lunch and conference ball??

I am trying to be prepared, I have packed fruit, yogurts, jellies and cupasoup - yum!! Oh well, no point moaning, I will try and do it the best I can and just keep thinking of the end goal, wish me luck........
