Going into Day 5

Hi! It's me MJ. I have been doing well so far - I don't mind the shakes and have been getting all 4 in thanks to the schedule my friend Candace gave me :) Here is the thing, Weekends are my Weakness. My 13 year old is back from camp and I have people coming in from Texas. I got away without cooking all week (the BF took care of himself this week) I have decided I have to remember 3 things, 1: I promised I would not take a bite 2: I have to keep my eye on the prize 3: Opti is about my liver shrinking and not about me losing weight at this point (I have lost 5lbs) Please pray for me.....

Hi MJ,

Remember, you have come so far in this process and you're so close. If you cheat on Opti, they will refuse to do the surgery on you. That's the choice point here.

So give in to the craving and start the process all over again, or stay the course and have the surgery?

You can do this!!!

Hey MJ,

Sounds like you are doing awesome :) Nights and weekends are always the hardest for me. I do cook for my Husband every night. Like you I promised I wouldnt take a bite, and have been keeping my eye on the prize. I have had the mindset that I know I can do this now with no cheating, and that will transition into my "new" life after surgery. Monday will be 2 weeks of Opti down and onto my 3rd and final week. We got this Surgery Buddy!! And way to go on your 5 lb loss

You can do it! Walk away and regroup if you have too. :) Just remember that it will be worth it.
