JULEEG!!!!  My surgery buddy!  How did it go getting your Opti? Did you have a "last meal"?  How are you finding Opti?  I am finding it not too bad.  I mixed a crystal light raspberry into a vanilla and I have been adding black coffee to the chocolate Opti.  So far, it's not too bad!  Not as bad as I thought it was going to be.

I was already on water pills so only lost three pounds each of the two weeks I was on Opti.  Yep.  Six pounds total.  But the surgeon said my liver was in great shape, which I guess was the point.

Three weeks of Opti and I was down 27 lbs.

You absolutely CAN lose weight in the first few days, as the others have said. I lost about 8 lbs in the first 5 days. The water weight is what you lose, and you certainly feel like you're tightening/toning up already. At least I did. I walked a LOT during my Opti phase (I was on vacation in Florida) and it was tough, but well worth it.

Hang in there! Opti will be done before you know it.
