Opti day 13 of 14.....
So today is day 13 of my 14 days of opti fast and i must say it's really not that bad. I only got the vanilla opti because im a vanilla fan more so than chocolate. I never needed to mix it with anything except really reallly cold water, as long as i did that and put it in my blender i was good to go. So that being said i lost 10 pounds during this time and im so freakin' happy about that. I'm so excited that my surgery is 8 am monday morning, however im also freaking out, im anxious, nervous, and every other emotion i can think of im feeling. I know this is all "normal" but i'm still freaking out. I can't wait to be on that darn losers bench...i've never wanted to be a "loser" so badly in my whole life LOL. So until monday afternoon i wish you all the best and will post again soon.

I thought the Optifast tasted OK too, I got Chocolate & Vanilla.
I got kind of sick of "sweet" all the time, so I used bouillon as well.
Believe it or not, Optifast is a fond memory for me now. The hospital food was CRAP, (Get your family to sneak you in calorie free jello from the store, and good clear soups). I thought I was going to rip someones face off and eat it before they let me out.
In the last 2 weeks the food has not been great. Tomato Juice has been my friend. I am sick of yogurt & sugar free applesauce. Low sugar oatmeal has been good.
