Hey!
Well i am just slightly excited, now not even nervous for what is coming in 11 days- thats right 11!!!!
So i got a phone call this morning from the pre admission nurse just going through all the details making sure we were all set for the 8th at 10am admission and midday surgery i was like hell yes we'r right! And also today i had to pay, so thats all done now so im all ready to go really!!
I have totally lost weight, not sure how much coz we dont have scales but i know i have lost a fair bit coz i couldnt even get a pair of jeans on 3 weeks ago and now not even a struggle!!! crazy!
Dad said he wants to tell the doc to give me a placebo because i have only kinda cheated 3 times... i had a pikelet, a quarter of a sausage and a little meatball last night.......... other than that i havent cheated once! :) woo
i made the best dinner last night actually...and i HAVE to share it with you!! Ok so im only allowed 2 cups of veggies and limited sauce etc...so out of what i could have i made:
Broccoli, Cauli and Cabbage again boiled in chicken stock and then out of the rest of the 2 cups i made Mushroom, Onion, and Cherry Tomatoes cooked in the pan and then i got a bit of tomato paste, a bit of curry, mixed with water and poured over the mushroom mix...and then put all that on top of my veggies and omg it was sooo delish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i loved it!!!
To a not so pretty/yummy topic...did anyone suffer real bad breath on this diet? Im finding its horrid, i cant keep up to it! My bro said thats coz im losing so much weight... but did anyone else find this? sorry its gross i know! haha
So yeh im totally excited aobut it all now and just cant wait to have it all started! the week after i get surgery im goin to dye and cut my hair, not sure how, but i want it different, coz its kinda a new me so i want something to symbolise that i guess! :)
So anyway, thats enough from me today!!! the next time we talk hopefully i have single digits left til op! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Talk soon
xooxox

Hi Lanni, the bad breath is a good sign, it means your body is in ketosis. That is the goal of VLC [very low calerie] diet's like optifast. We don't eat any carbs, so our body starts to use up fat reserves. When our body burns existing fat for fuel, we expell ketones in our urine and on our breath. Just start chewing some fat/sugar free gum.
Also, so you understand, if you do find that you absolutely must cheat, only eat protein, if you eat carbs, your body will be kicked out of ketosis and then it will have to start again to work towards ketosis,then you go through the headache, flu like symptons again. Not nice!
Anyway, good luck, I am following your journey, so keep blogging,
Tracey
Hey LanniB
Firstly good work on the jean situation - I love when that happens, especially when you know you deserve it and I agree with a new haircut/colour - I was thinking of doing that when I get banded, something semi-short and totally different :-)
And its good knowing someone young who understands it - wow not long at all, I am so excited for you!
