Here are some stats so I don't forget. Most ever weight verified by a scale : 244. weight the day before pre-op diet: 239. My Dr. was incredulous that I would spend so much money to lose weight. His comment was why don't you just use the Optifast without spending all that money. I got mad, but I didn't say anything. He just has never understood the problems with obesity and has the sensitivity of a rhino.

 

I am on my 5th day on Optifast. It doesn't taste so bad now, but I would rather it tasted better. Yesterday I pigged out and had 4 strawberries in an optifast and ate a whole green pepper as well.

 

I weighed myself this morning, and I am down 5 lbs., but the other times I weighed myself was not first thing in the morning, so I'll hold off on congratulating myself. Also, I have been using the ketostix, and - nothing. No Ketosis. I wonder why that is?
