and I’m really feeling the pressure of this liquid only diet.  It’s hard, it’s extremely hard.  The strange thing is, it’s not the lack of food that makes it hardest.  What makes it really hard is that I’m just sick of the protein shakes.

Fortunately a good friend and coworker has brought me some home made chicken stock that while still just being liquid broth, is a great respit for me once a day from the monotony of protein shakes.  Thank you.

Next thursday I will go under, and when I come out I’ll have a tiny stomach that should make dieting easier, hopefully.
