Surgery on Thursday
I'm almost there. I can't believe I've made it this far without a single, even tiny cheat on Optifast. I'll be so happy to have real food again in about 5 weeks. It hasn't been as hard as I thought, though this last weekend we had kids and friends visiting and I made a ton of food for them. Almost as if I was making up for not being able to eat any. I still enjoyed preparing it, and the smells were heavenly.
someone ought to convince the optifast company to make flavours like butter chicken and Swiss steak.
ive lost 13 pounds since I started February 28. More than I expected. I'm pretty excited, and I hope recovery doesn't take too long.
surgery Thursday. Onward and upward.

Congratulations on the first big step! I know you are excited. j How wonderful you can fix food for others -- I find it very helpful for my "vicarious" food items, but my poor husband is gaining a bit, lol!
Excited for your surgery!
