Yep & it's going well. Today was Day 4 & I've lost a few pounds. I'm supposed to lose 5% of starting weight. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. How about you?

Today was day 3 for me. Going ok, it is hard though...it's amazing the foods you crave just because you know you can't eat them- my mind is my worst enemy! I haven't weighed myself though- tomorrow I go for my last appt before surgery and for my pre-op testing at hospital. I'll find out then if I lost anything.

I'm on Optifast 800 so I'm eating every 3 hours & getting in more than the required 64oz of Water, too. I have 3 shakes & 2 bars a day & that seems to be just the right amount. Well, at least until I see other food. Food on commercials, take-out Chinese the characters are eating on my TV shows, the chicken minis one of our vendors brought in for us at the office today... Luckily I have a short attention span so I'm able to shift my thoughts elsewhere fairly easily. ADD ain't so bad after all. 8-)

My pre-op apps aren't until the 12th. Good luck tomorrow!
