My first day of optifast , so it wasn't to bad...It was chocolate and I didn't add anything to it...I started with chocolate because I am scared of the vanilla lol ...wish me luck, feels a little heavy on the belly but  it's a reminder of the wonder life ahead...

I'm glad to hear it isn't all that bad. My first day of Optifast is tomorrow eeek I'm definitely a bit nervous and I'm traveling this weekend which sucks but I'm sure things will be okay. I was thinking of starting with Vanilla that way it will seem to get "better" if the vanilla is as awful as everyone says it is. 

 

Good luck

Really? I would think you would be VERY MUCH looking forward to it considering all you've been through to get here.

Looking forward to getting the surgery done but opti not so much.  I am not a fan of sweet foods in general.  I bought several types of broth so that I can have something non-sweet.

 I am on day 4 and struggling.  The first 2 days were ok, I actually likes the shakes lol.  Now today I had to force down the breakfast one.   

We will get through this!

I'm on day 4.  First day was awful, tasted like chalk.  The next day I added more water, around 450ml of water and 3 ice cubes, no magic bullet.  I used a bottle shaker instead.  What a difference for the taste.  Now I love the chocolate...for now lol.  We'll get through it
