Half Way Through Opti.

Jul 30, 2012

Well I'm at the half way point on opti-fast and feeling good.  The opti isn't that bad and I actually look forward to it.  I'm not going to lie, of course I see what everyone else is eating and it's hard for me not to want it.  But I'm staying strong and sticking to the shakes and soup.  I actually have gotten to the point now where I'd rather drink the opti then have my homemade soup which I never thought would happen. It's exciting to see this changes happening... I can get my wedding rings off now that the weight is dropping!!  I've only had one day bother me while on opti.  I had chest pains, but I think it was from drinking the opti too fast and sitting at a desk all day, because the pains only lasted that day.  And it's definitely a strain on your bladder!!!  But it's all worth it.  It's funny, I'm actually starting to get excited to eat the simple foods that we are to have after the surgery... cottage cheese, greek yogurt with sugar free jam, cream of wheat with a tsp of peanut butter, etc.  I'm looking forward to being healthy!
