I have to say Jennifer it must take some courage to do this. I guess
you're now approaching the relly hard part and moving towards a way of
life for the future. Do keep us posted as I'm really interested to
hear how it goes.
My first thought was for your digestion. My system has been seriously
damaged by years of bingeing and dieting, and the worst times are
switching from one WOE to another, so I can't imagine what switching
from liquids to solids would be like.

I'm surprised at how undamaged I am physiologically. Luckily, the
transition for HMR is done progressively to help with potential digestive
problems. The big ones are fat and fiber. Some people will experience gall
bladder problems - I won't because mine was removed when I was 24 years old.
The fiber thing is just some discomfort apparently caused by eating raw
veggies instead of cooked at first. I plan to just follow the directions
and do as I'm told.
