KRanKy!

That's right, dear reader, I'm a cranky bitch this week.  I am sick. to. death. of. these. freaking. shakes.  I can barely stomach one, let alone five.  I have been barely able to finish one in a sitting and ended up eating much less than I was supposed to.  As an example, when I went to the doctor today I had only had one shake, and it was 5PM.  That's not a good thing for obvious reasons, but also because your body goes into starvation mode... yada yada yada, you've heard it all before, I'm sure.  Anyone who has ever had a weight problem is an amateur nutritionist and has far more knowledge than the average skinny bitch.

I confessed my feelings to the doctor tonight and I was not happy with her response.  She told me I could go on the moderate fast or switch to the all-food, 'Lean' program.  She said that neither were good ideas for me, however, since I had lost so much weight already and was doing so well and that I look so good that I was probably thinking that I was done and was just going to go back to my old patterns.
Bitch says WUT???

Excuse me?

So I says to her I says, trying to refrain from wagging my finger and my head,  'That is NOT the problem.  I'm well aware that I have more weight to lose, I am just at the point that I do not want to do something stupid like eat something - I can tell that I am at a breaking point.'  I told her that my friend has the Optifast bars, and maybe if I could have one bar, two soups, and only two disgusting shakes, that I could stay on the full fast.  She said that women often do poorly on the bars, that it slows down their weight loss and she wasn't sure that was the answer.  I told her I wanted to try it and silently told her to stop being a Cassandra.  So I'm trying it for one week, because correct me if I am wrong, but slowing down weight loss is preferable to stopping it with a burrito to the mouth.

I also bought some new shake flavors, so that may be helpful as well.
