Well I didn't think I would drop much weight at all but since going on opti for 3 meals a day on Friday, going to Perth ( eating the healthiest Hans meal on saturday night that I could find and then back to opti full time I seem to have lost just over 2kgs. 11 days now until surgery. Must keep my water up! That is my biggest downfall. Discovered the choc dessert takes rather nice with coffee added. Up until now I've mostly had the coffee shakes and bars as my preference( since January) with occasional banana or lemon dessert but the choc dessert is now my 3rd favourite.
I'm getting prepared though. Bought a few chewable vitamins while in Perth on the weekend. Have ordered some sipper bottles( hope they come today), and some heat pack stickons, bought some cuppa soups, stuff to add to water, tape measure, lip balm for hospital. Books accommodation, planning out what clothing, electronics to take as I may be in Perth for a while afterwards without transport and by myself.
Dietician appointment in Perth tomorrow so I wonder what she will tell me I need. I've sussed out iron melts and b12 spray so know where to buy that if I need to. Will get some hydralyte lemonade blocks today while I'm out if I can find them as I'm off inland to collect our dog from kennels.
