HotLikeHer 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Wow I am so excited-not about actually having surgery, yuck, but about the long term after the surgery.. I started the Optifast on Tuesday morning... I was at 226.5 and now am at 222. Its not really that bad, so far I am not real hungry, I try to drink a lot of fluids,, and hold off on the Optifast until I am really hungry,,,, then I drink one.... I get 5 a day plus the Water, s/f Jello, crystal light etc.... My Mom is with me on this, she says ah pretty soon you are on your way to wearing a bikini again,, or being a model,,,,lol . her way of being supportive.... She is also morbidly obese...She is worried and was trying to get time off of work to come down and be with me, but cant.. My hunny will be with me during and bringing me home the day after surgery, but he cant really afford to take that much more time off of work... So I am hoping to be able to do things on my own on the 2nd day after surgery... C'mon I said hoping,,,,lol And my count down has started.... 12 days,,, yippeeeeeee :banana Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
