6 months down!
Hi all - been away for a bit but wanted to come over and give an update. I am now 6 months out from surgery as of yesterday.
67 lbs down since starting Opti!
Size 18 to Size 10/12. Feeling so much better all around.
I am starting to find cravings coming back so I am making a really big effort to plan out all my meals. Measured and weighed.
My goal for the next 6 months is another 35 or so pounds down. Building up my fitness routine so I can run a 5k this Spring.
For those of you just getting started the very best of luck, it is SO worth it.
WOOHOOO!

1st day of Opti: 237.4 :: Surgery day weight 227 :: M1 211.2 (-26.2 lbs)
congrats!! this is awesome.
I find that avoiding getting hungry helps me with the cravings. I try to keep healthy, protein rich snacks on hand so that I never get super hungry. Days that I'm not prepared are always the worst.
Good luck with the next 35 pounds. It does get harder, but it is all so worth it (as you said).
