@@Ozikiwi I am counting down the days!!!! The hunger hasn't been too bad but I just feel yuk! My hubby decided to make caramel popcorn with the boys tonight and I could have strangled him.. It smelt sooo amazing. How are you coping with it? I am really nervous about the op and going under as I have never had surgery before, but other than that I am so ready!

Hey ozikiwi, I am having my sleeve on the 21st too at Alamanda on the GC.. We are sleeve twins:)

Hey guys, Day 4 on opti and I am wishing it was day 13!! Feel like I am surrounded by fog. Not too hungry just so lethargic and have a memory of a gold fish! Actually can't wait for the op just to get off opti. I was so terrified of the op itself. Freaked out at the thought of going under. But now I say bring it on. Tomoz might be a struggle as we are going out for a mothers day picnic with all the family. Gonna be so strange not being able to eat all the yummys. But on the positive side I have lost 3 kgs already. Happy Mother's Day to all you awesome mummy's out there:) Dal

Sue you are unreal!!! Read the whole thread and feel like I know you already:) Yay there is still hope for sushi!! Actually today was really good! No where near as hungry and not even cranky. Tomorrow will be even better:)

Thanks guys!! Was crabby as last night and then woke up at 2am starving and couldn't go back to sleep for ages! Just got back from dropping the big boys to school and I went to bakery to get some bread! Next door I saw a sign in the empty shop saying"sushi coming soon"!!! Now not only is sushi my fave food ever but I have always said to my hubby how much I would love a sushi shop down the road. Feel like the universe is flipping me the bird!!! Hahahaha (Hopefully in a few months I will be able to consume a small plate) Have a good day guys

Thanks @@ausmith my dr says he has never had anyone ask if breastfeeding is possible and said he doesn't think it will be a problem! I have read that it is possible but it will be hard. I am stashing milk like a mad woman however I plan to feed him when my mother brings him to hospital the next day. (Pending anathestist approval) He will be 9 mths when I have surgery so if worst comes to worst he has a couple of months milk supply to use. On another note. Day 2 of opti sux big time.. Feel like crap and keep thinking about everything I cant eat! Don't know how some of you did it for more than 2 weeks!! Oh well only 12 to go!!!

Thanks day 1 almost down. Not too bad. I am also trying to keep breastfeeding through this so I am praying my milk doesn't dry up during these 2 weeks. I mixed baby spinach in with my shakes to try and up bulk them up. The opti chocolate bar was horrendous! Just had one for dinner as well as a salad. Think I will stick to the shakes. I am going to have some diet jelly with berries for dessert soon while watching the voice. (I am allowed 2 bits of fruit a day!) Only 13 to go!!!! Ps I am peeing all bloody day too with all the liquids! Hahaha

Ps. Meant to add I am 100.2 kgs and 168cm tall.. Have yo yoed my whole life so can't wait to lose weight and keep it off:)

Hey guys, I start opti tomorrow and my op is on the 21st!! Can't believe it is really happening! I am super freaked, excited, nervous and ready to start my journey.. I am 34 from the Gold Coast! Getting sleeved by dr Liew! Loved reading all your journeys! Dal:)
