I weighed in at 171.5 this morning, my goal being 170. My surgery was Feb 6th, 2013, I can't believe how far I have come in such a short time! This time last year I was facing my first weekend on opti (I did 3 weeks), wondering if I could do it, the first 3 days are rough I will not sugar coat it BUT the opti really is the test (for me anyway) I knew if I could stick to it then I could stick to the guidelines we are given post-surgery.

For those starting their journey with the referral  or first appointments or Opti, enjoy the journey it won't always be easy but it will be worth it!
