OF is cruel &unusual punishment...

Hmmmm.  Well, this may sound like "cruel and unusual punishement" too - but uh, suck it up buttercup.

I also think it's to make sure your bowls are empty too right? because they will be working on them so they can't have "stuff" in them.

Not sure about the bowls, but maybe the bowel. LOL!

  yes lol silly me. lol

 I hate having full bowls lol

I am on day 12 of optifast and managing well with only the sf jello, broth and sf popsicles.  My centre does not allow any vegies and the reason for the 21 days is to shrink the fatty liver so it isn't in the way when they are doing the surgery we have been going through all of this for.

  I don't usually say things like this but "really" if you can't do this 21 days how will you handle the post surgical life?  This isn't a game, it is about giving you the best chance at a better, healthier life. Why would you complain about drinking some shakes to get there?  Are they the best tasting things-not really, but they are not the worst either.  

Perhaps you need to consider all the challenges you will face later on with food choices and need more counselling to prepare because you don't sound ready for this or what lies ahead.  

I hope that I am wrong and you succeed beyond your wildest dreams.

 

I think she knows, she just wanted to vent. Right Sabrina?

Fine, vent away.  But don't be surprised (or offended) when people respond with their opinions and/or thoughts about the post.  Quite frankly, I find the crying face whines about Optifast childish (sorry people).  You think Optifast is hard??!!  Try living after surgery FFS. 

No offence of course.  ;)

What does FFS mean?  I hope you didn't just make me swear. lol
I don't think people should be offended when they make a post and get different responses.... it's put out there right.
