I started Optifast on April 10 and lost 9 pounds.  I had RNY on April 24 and have lost 21 pounds.  30 pounds total!    Yesterday I wore a pair of pants that I haven't fit into in the last 3-4 years.  I have spent the last 20 years trying all manner of diets..Jenny Craig, weigh****chers, Slim fast, South beach, The Zone, etc. etc. etc.  Nothing ever worked.  I could not be happier with my decision to do this for myself.  Thank you, TWH!!  Lets keep the good times rolling!

Your post brings me back to the way I felt starting the process after Opti and surgery 1 year'ish ago.....isn't it amazing and awesome.  Keep up the good work and do not stress when you hit a stall....it is normal.

Good luck.

Hey ! 

That's awesome ! You're doing great , and it just keeps getting better ! I love the trying on stuff phase , I had loads of beautiful clothes that I've kept over the years , just because they were lovely and I really didn't want to get rid of them . All different sizes ,because like you , I've tried loads of diets and programs and so on . Sometimes ( not so much now cos I'm past the smallest I remember being ) its so much fun to go into the bedroom and have a wee fashion show all to yourself  Lol ! Great fun ! 

Keep up the good work and enjoy every minute ! I agree , best thing I've done for myself so far .
