Before Pictures

I start Opti tomorrow so had hubby take some before pictures. I avoid cameras like the plague so what an eye opener those pictures are. I can't believe how huge I look!  Especially from the back. I can't wait to see some changes. No wonder I feel like hell all the time. I'm huge!

Hi Sylvie- Good luck starting opti tomorrow!  It's hard at first but once you get the hang of it, it gets easier.  2 more weeks and then its our big day. Don't let too many hours go between shakes.  On Saturday, I was an hour or so later than I should have been and I was very empty and grumpy!  I think the chicken broth that I drink between the shakes has been a lifesaver for me.  Its a break from the sweet shakes and kind of soothing.

Sylvie!!! Huggggs!!! those before picture are quite the eye opener arnt they!! No fear the new you is right around the corner! Best of luck with the opti tomorrow!! You can do this!! Just remember the first few days are the hardest!!!

Good Luck starting Opti Sylive. I did the same thing the night before I started, I haven't looked at the pictures though, am waiting until I take my 2 month post op pices to compare . If you don't like sweet add a wee bit of pure cocoa powder to the shakes, it cuts the sweetness!

Congrats on having the courage to have pictures taken at this point.  It will be so necessary to see your development and changes through this journey.

 

Good luck on Optifast.

Good Luck tomorrow Sylvie, I am sure you will do great.

Good luck with Opti Sylvie! Even though it was total hell lol - I just kept reminding myself that it was the next step on my plan to wellness for myself. It's all about you, baby!!

Mint extract was my saviour. I'm sure you'll find something that works for you too.

I took pics the night before my surgery.....definitely want to be able to look back at the "before", to remember where I"ve been.

Cheers,

Sylvie, I did the same, had hubby take pic's the night before Opti started. I had some more done last week and I'm telling you now, you will be totally shocked at how fast your body changes and I'm only 8 weeks out!

You got this!

Sylvie,

It's so funny that you mention the back. I'm almost 4 months out and my boss said to me last week that from the back I look like a completely different person. It's honestly not something I would thing of because I can't see it but his desk is behind mine so he would notice that.
He actually walked past me the other day and apologized later for not recognizing me. Best of luck with the opti!! It gets easier as time goes and it is totally worth it in the end!
