I am sooo sad, I have my second surgeons appointment on the 12th. 
Supposed to pick up my opti and get my date that day. Here is the problem. The furnace guy just left (we have GeoThermal) 3200$ and one now working furnace means my kids have heat and I now have no money for OptiFast. I am so sad I could crawl into my bed pull up the covers and cry for the next week.

Im sorry about your situation, I'll say a prayer for you. Hopefully something can happen that brings money into your hands to cover the Opti Cost.

Think Positive.

How many days were you going to be on OF?

You might be able to do a low fat low carb diet instead, where are you having your surgery?

ask about the low carb diet, Hobbit, or ask for donations of unused optifast, maybe?

I have seen that sometimes people post on this forum that they have optifast to give away....maybe make a new post asking if anyone has any you can have...hope it all works out for you.
