Optislim vs optifast

[kazzygal 39]

Hi all,

This is a question I've asked and many have said Optifast is better because of less sugar. I did a little research and these are the latest comparisons because optifast HAVE CHANGED SIZE. Before, they were lower, however, now these are the results. I will be using the opticslim I've already purchased before my op. My dietician also recommended energise drinks which are very high in sugar too...at least optislim is lower in fat!

I'm also using benefibe in my water bottle once a day, can't taste it at all.

Hope this helps. Optifast WAS better but not since it changed. Now it is on par. I am in Australia by the way!

Of course, always check with your nut if you are concerned.

Good luck everybody! My op is on April 8... Getting excited!

That's good to know - thanks for sharing as I know they have different flavours too. I must check the Vitamin values though.

So not long for you now - hope you are feeling as excited as I am, I just wish I could get it over and done with but alas I still have 6 days longer than you :-). Go hard on your pre op diet I've got 3 weeks down and two to go and have to say my espresso shot in my morning shake makes that first one of the day bearable. Look forward to reading about your journey.

Thanks! Yep, countdown is on! Very excited and not doing too bad at pre-op. I'm weening myself off foods and should be total liquid by tomorrow. Well done with yours! Good practise for afterwards and should be easier by then. I love the mint choc in optislim. I'm drinking energize x2 too, rec by my dietitian. Don't think chuppa chupsare though...whoops! Getting serious now though. Shopping for high Protein foods to blend after for soft food stage. Will keep you posted...this time next week I should be done...gulp!
