Optifast - Halfway there!

Jul 09, 2013

Here I am on Day 7 of Optifast. It's been a tough go, I'll be honest. At first, I was amazed at how many times I had to stop myself from taking little bites, nibbles of things, especially while preparing or cleaning up after my kids' meals. It was very, very hard to have to make their meals the first 3 days in particular. I tried to make stuff I didn't really crave but even plain white bread with butter looks like a 4 course meal at one point. :) 

After Day 3, the head hunger subsided a bit and I felt a bit better. I did notice that I was very tired at the end of each day and really ready for bed. My stomach has growled a few times, but nothing out of control. 

My favourite combo is still the chocolate with coffee granules and SF syrup. The vanilla doesn't seem to be sitting right anymore so I'm going tomorrow to switch out the last box of vanilla for chocolate. I'm lucky to be so close to Guelph!

So, one more week and the big day will be here. Doesn't quite seem real yet.
