On my Optifast!!!!

I am booked for my surgery Dec 17th.  I am very excited but I am dying on the optifast.  Just wondering how much some of you lost on the liquid diet.  This might inspire me to keep motivated.

Thanks in advance

Besides that, I have had no problems. Life is good!

You can do this! I am also on optifast ( day 2). Drink ALOT of water and make sure you space your shakes just enough to keep you from getting hungry.. that seems to be working for me...  We got this!!! Think of what the end result will be.. Surgery!!! and a new LIFE!

Hi there, I am on day 13 of opti and am down 15 pounds. Things do get better by about day 5. My headaches were gone by day three and the shakes started tasting better around day 5. Don't have to plug my nose anymore. YOU CAN DO IT !!!

Best of luck Julie.

I am also on day 13 and yes, it does get better. The first 6 days were the hardest for me but now it's okay. I have actually been finding that I'm not that hungry and a few days have not been able to get the fourth one in. My energy level has increased and my knees aren't as sore, I have even been working out! So far I have lost 19 pounds. Drink lots of water and decaf teas. You can do this!!

It is so worth it!!!  Keep hanging in there!!!

I did three weeks and I hated every second of it. I used to love jello and I can honestly say, I will never eat it again. I started working out when I started Opti. I walked every day and played Dance Central. It helped to keep my mind off eating. I lost 33 pounds in 3 weeks. The scale definitely kept me motivated.
