Can I really make it?
Oct 26, 2011
Okay, people- what is the point of making me STARVE and deprive myself on this stupid Optifast diet, if I don't have the other tools that surgery will give me? I lost 35+ lbs during the 6 mo before my surgery date, and have lost about 10 more. My problem is- they have me on the dumb 'ole Optifast for 17 DAYS prior to my surgery, and I'm a lightweight to begin with!! I'm having horrible headaches from not having hot food. I finally broke down and had a cup of boullion each day for the last two, and today I ate 3oz of Salmon (broiled with nothing on it). I'm ready to hit Chipotle and eat me a HUGE STEAK BOWL!! I am SICK SICK SICK of this.To be honest, I actually like the taste of the Optifast shakes, but I'm not, nor have I ever been, a 'sweet' person. Give me a potato, rice, steak, fish, ANYTHING but sweet stuff, and I'm a happy person. Give me 17 day of sweet-and I'm 'sour'. :(
