Today marks 2 weeks that I have been on Optifast! Day 1 I did not know how I was going to make it this long, but I've found I actually kind of enjoy the Optifast now (even the Vanilla, gasp!).

At first I was really struggling with Optifast at work (no blender so I couldn't make it with ice cubes -- and I can't stand lukewarm Optifast) but I bought this handy little $20 travel blender from amazon and it's a life safer :) The actual blender cup doubles as a travel mug so it's super convenient! I was worried the blades were so small it wouldn't be able to crush up the ice, but I've had no issues!

A little hope out there to those starting Optifast and having a hard time with it, for me it definitely got much better as I have gone along :-)

I had my PATTs yesterday & found that I'm down 30lbs since I saw my surgeon in April, so I definitely feel like I'm going into this surgery with some good momentum :)

2 weeks of Optifast down, and 2 to go!

Hang in there, I admit it would be nice to have a cracker but we can do this because WE ARE STRONG!!!  Good for you on the weight loss, awesome

It's a prescription, from your surgeon, at a pharmacy.

In Ottawa, after you meet with the surgeon, you go to the front desk at the WMC and buy it.
