So close now Michelle! Since pre-op for me the time is flying! So much I want to do so that I can rest. I am one week in on Opti with one week to go. The first couple days were hard but by day 3-4 it's been ok for me and I hope the same for you. I ah bet cheated and I feel like if I did, things would just be harder not to cheat more.
We are in the final stretch now. I know you have waited exactly as long as I have now, so we are ready!!! We got this!
Yes..can't wait to start the opti.. surprisingly.. lol.. I started myself on my own type of opti... but just drinking protein shakes/meal replacements... have been doing that for a week now and yes.. first couple of days were hard.. but now it's easier.. not even feeling hungry....
Figured it would be a good start to opti.. to make sure that I can do it without cheating... and so far it's worked..so i'm going to keep running with it until opti.. :)
Just hope the opti tastes as good as the protein shakes i'm drinking now..lol
and you are almost there 100buttons... :) it's hard to believe we are almost at the end
