Hi everyone, 

So tomorrow is the day I start my optifast diet, I'm a little nervous about it because thats all I get to have for 3 weeks dont know how I'm going to do it. I am excited for the surgery tho so I can get back to being healthy and not the way I am now

 

I do have a question tho can anybody tell me how the surgery helped their sleep apnea ?? I am hoping to be able to get off my cpap machine but dont know lol

I want to wish everyone going for surgery the best of luck and hope there are no complications and for post ops i wish you continued luck on obtaining your goals and look forward to reading your encouraging stories.

I just saw my sleep dr and he said that by the time I lose all the weight I probably won't need the machine. So you may be the same. Good luck with the Optifast. I am 2 days from surgery and do miss different flavours but the three weeks went by really fast.

Cheers,
