Hi Lori, I only lost 8 also. I'm 3 months post.

Everyone loses different.

You may have lost inches also.

I think any loss is a good thing :) I have my pre-op in Ottawa tomorrow. What should I expect? I hope I have everything.

keeping in mind the point of opti isnt to lose weight - it is to shrink your liver down and make it softer - the losing weight is a bi-product of the 900 calorie diet. Any loss on opti is good - the main this is that you followed it and allowed it to do its work on your liver.
