1ST Day Tomorrow

Hi All,

 

This is my first time posting. I am schedule to have surgery on Jan 20th at TWH.  I am starting Opti tomorrow and I am very nervous. I know this the being of a life style change as i just don't want to fail.

 

I been following this form for over 6mths and reading all your post and advise has really helped me some what prepare for this.  Is anyone really ready?    To me this is eve to the old Danielle and the path to the new person i know i want and can be.

 

I am so glad that this forum is here.  If you have any suggestion to help me get through the next 3 weeks  please respond.

 

Congrats and welcome!! 

I added 2tsp cocoa to the vanilla opti...made it taste like the chocolate one. Other times, I added orange tangerine crystal lite, tasted like a creamcicle. I didn't mind the opti stage at all. Ate alot of jello and drank a tonne of water! 

Thanks for that as I did add the crystal light today ...it was good.  I am eating a lot of jello  I still finding I am hungry I know it is going to take a few days for my body to get use to...

Variety was the key for me during my 3 weeks of Opti. Made smoothies, hot drinks, anything that you can come up with. Have fun being creative. Best of luck on your new journey

Thank you :-) day 2  is harder than day one..

Good luck to you...I'm on almost 2weeks ouy of 3 and really having to push through it's not easy and I'm not gonna lie its hard but stay positive and each time you think to give up(if you do) start over

Thank you and good luck with your surgery next week..all the best

If you add some brewed coffee and lots of ice to the vanilla it tastes alot like an ice capp especially if you add espresso. i too did my surgery out of that hospital..They are great there...

Great sounds good will try  thanks
