Start Optifast In A Few Days.



Recommended Posts

So I start the Optifast diet in just a few days and I am not looking forward to it at all. I heard it does not taste very good and you feel lousy while on it. Surgery is on 10/29 so I know I have to drink it but I don't want to. Since I only have about a week of normal eating left, I have to admit I am eating everything I can get my hands onto.

I did Optifast for 8 months and lost 90lbs. So I did not get sick of the taste I'd flavor it up with Torani sugar free syrups. Amazon has a great price on a variety pack right now. Honestly I enjoyed being on that plan. Easy, no choices, and felt great. (First two days are the hardest and then the hunger goes away.) I was hard on my social life, most people felt uncomfortable eating in front of me, even though I did not have a problem with it. Good luck. Envious of your surgery date. Mine is still months away.

I've been on it over a week now & have to agree its very easy. I have 3 shakes & 2 bars a day. I think you'll do fine as long as you have an open mind about it!

Today is my day one on Opti-Fast. It's not horrible. Just trying to keep my mind off of it. My surgery is November 8th. Ready to get my life back.

Yeah! I have a surgery date! Nov. 6th. So I'll be starting Optifast on oct. 22nd. Super nervous but can't wait.
