I start optifast tomorrow and I'm getting very nervous and excited.
My problem is that I am sooooo tempted to eat everything in site.
I feel like I'm at my last supper.  What to do, what to do???

Enjoy your favorite last meal. Then make a contract with yourself to get through this. Maybe you'll like opti like I do. Last night it was around 7pm and I was on my way home from Toronto from my PATTS, the only thing I'd had at that point was 2 opti shakes (only brought 1 along for the trip not knowing how long it would take, and had one before I left the house). My uncle wanted to stop for A&W. Sitting in the car smelling that probably might have broken me. Fortunatley I did not have to test myself since we missed the turn off for the rest stop. The point is, we'll know our limits or our breaking points and hopefully we can self talk our way to the other side. Keep our eye on the prize.

Best of luck.

 I'm not quite there yet but many ppl have great ideas here to change things up!  My girfriend is doing it now & she loves the Magic Bullet to blend with ice!  Just remember why you're doing this & never give up!  You can do this!  Thinking of you & sending positive vibes!
