Optifast

Jan 06, 2011

I am on day 3 of my 2 week Optifast diet before surgery. I know now, it does get better. I was almost gagging with each sip the first day, I really hated the taste. I found that as you get hungrier, it starts to taste better! Blending it with ice helps too. I am starving, but it is manageable so far. A little tired, a little bit of a headache, but I'm hoping that passes. I think about food a lot, thinking about what I am going to make for lunch or dinner, before I catch myself and realize I won't be making anything but the Optifast! It's hard watching TV, there are a LOT of food commercials. Each day brings me closer to surgery though, so it's all worth it. Plus, I have lost 6 pounds so far, so I have lost almost all of the 8 pounds I piled on at Christmas!
