Thanks! I start Opti on Dec 29th, which will give me a good excuse not to have to go out on New Year's Eve. I'm not really looking forward to it, but I also can't wait!

Oh, that's great! You won't be on Opti for Christmas, and you'll get to start the new year with a whole new you!

I'm so excited for you!

I hated the first few days of Opti but then grew to love it. Make sure to use ice cold water, and plenty of ice.

Aw, you're so sweet; thank you so much. I really enjoy making the videos; they help keep me accountable, and everyone is always so nice with their comments and support. Are you doing videos too?

I haven't decided yet... It seems like a good idea because of the accountability and the community aspects, I just need to gather some courage first haha
