Hey don't stress

You can have one little cheat night prior to op. I rewarded myself a cheat night on day 10 on Optifast

Don't go overboard but one cheat night is ok

I had a beautiful tbone with veggies on day 10

Had shakes and soap during the day then had a my steak at night

I still lost 8 kg on the 14 days

Have eaten all my favorite foods leading up to the pre-op diet that starts tomorrow. This is the absolute last time I will weigh what I weigh tonight. Know it will be life changing but really won't know what that means till I live it. Not a lot of support among friends.

Tomorrow is my new day!

I don't think cheating is ok. I'm kinda pissed I read this post :-( my first day of opti was yesterday and I frigging messed it up bad at 8pm and ate the kitchen. Today is day two. I am starving!!! Now I think I'm gonna cheat.

Walk away. Run away! Get out of the situation or room that is tempting you. Know that the opti is only for today. Then tomorrow it's only for tomorrow. One day at a time.

If you keep eating on pre-op your doc will have additional challenges which will make recovery more difficult.

Hang in there. You got this.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
