I had no problems with the surgery. The pre-op and surgical staff was great (even the students that were observing). The care post surgery was very good as well. I could have gone home a day earlier, but wanted to be sure I was ready with young kids at home.

I have no regrets at all.

For sure! We will be in there together! 😄

Not sure about the broth. I'm thinking a cup? Day 2 has begun. Only issue is the raging headache I have. (But that's not caused by the Opti-not this soon!!)

Will all be worth it on the end!!

Haven't tried vanilla yet but so far chocolate is going down good!

Hi my surgery is on January 9 at HRRH, I must say I like the opti not like I thought it would be.

Keep a positive outlook and remember your goals that's helped me a lot when I started eliminating a lot of things from my diet.
