Where does the four cheat days come in? I started my 4 week Optifast diet on Apr 20 and my dietitian did not say anything about cheat days?

Well really ita not a cheat day because u can't pig out but u do have to still drink four shakes but replace the other with a lean cuisine.

Okay... So day 2 of the liquid diet. This is way more about my head than hunger at this point. It's about control and poor coping skills. Am I alone, or is anyone else feeling like a big ball of emotions?

I'm on day 12 and it does get easier. Stay focused on the goal. The more your organs shrink the better the surgeon can perform. I chew on straws to help

I'm on day 9 of a 14 day Optifast pre-op diet..I had wicked bad headaches up to day 5 plus being sleepy and kinda moody. Once my body got over the caffeine withdrawal I started to feel better! So just hang on it does get better!

I am on day 4 of my 4 week Optifast diet. Today was a little better than yesterday I hope the trend continues. I been trying to get the energy to exercise more. So far I have walked a mile on Saturday and Sunday. I am really trying to get in a 3 rd day this week to work my way up to five days. How are you guys doing with the exercise?
