Opti in a blink of an eye

Jul 10, 2011

So I started this journey back in March with my first surgeon appointment meet and greet.  I stepped on the scale at 331lbs and remember being in tears throughout the rest of the appt. not realizing I had gained so much weight.  I weighed 299 when I was 9 months pregnant :( 

Somehow in that following week I lost almost 10 pounds without trying.  I hovered around 323 for the longest time.  I had cut back my caloric intake drastically in the weeks coming up to Optifast.   I started by drinking a Premier shake for breakfast and then nothing til lunch.  My weight didn't budge.  Then I start Optifast on June 22 (the first day was sheer hell) and here I am almost 3 weeks later and the last I weighed myself, I was 305.  Since I haven't been on the scale in a few days, I'm hoping that its going to show me that I've made it to the 200's and have dropped my bmi to below 50 (that's my goal for surgery). 

I'm excited and looking forward to surgery.  Nervous as hell at the same time.  *blink*
