Day 1 of 30 day Optifast!
Wow 30 days! That’s a long liquid diet but it will be worth it in the end, you’ll see. I am so happy you are finally moving along in your journey!
I will have you in my thoughts on March 2nd for sure, I just marked my calendar. You will not regret this I am sure of it! Once the surgery and recovery part is done with, it will feel like it was in a past life!
This is YOUR year!
Do keep us posted!!

The first few days are the worst. It gets easier- believe it or not. You will likely have a mild but persistant headache for about 4 days- most but not all do. Remembern to come here for support, that is what we are here for. Don't be afraid to vent like crazy when you need to, we understand. And before I forget,, WOOOO HOOOOO for you!
