@@jcmo, so very exciting for sure!! Whoop whoop, happy dance ????. When do you start the Optifast?

Thanks for the info, just another question if I can. How long was it between the behaviorist/nut and your pre op class? Going for my Behaviourist/nut appointment on Friday, just trying to see the time in between. Is there any tips you can give me for my appointment? Thanks a mil!

[jcmo 40]

I start my Optifast feb 10th. Not looking forward to living on the nasty shakes as my hubby called them. But it is a means to an end.

The process in total will have taken 26 mths from referral from family doctor to surgery.

How long after seeing the nutritionist/behavourist depends on each person.

I was passed thru the nutritionist/behavourist on the first go around. Not everyone gets their ok after the first appointment. I had a hold up of 3 mths to get my blood sugar levels to the right level.
