Well I survived the BBQ at my house last night, I wanted a glass of wine but that was a quick thought and then went away. Have lost 7 pounds in 3 days. First 2 days I was weak in the morning, but today I felt better. Had 400 calories yesterday. Haven't felt hungry and been watching the food channel (weird), don't know if it's because of the staples in ears, shear determination, knowing it won't be FOREVER, and a combination of all of the above. Very constipated and have been drinking at least 1 gallon of water per day......hmmmmmm, stinkin' thinkin', as someone always told me. Well got to go, busy, busy.
