Yay Congrats!! Are you doing the 3 week optifast as well?  it amazes me how different Dr's are.  Some are 3 weeks, some are 2, some you can have veggies, some not. I'm on 3 week optifast, just started my 3rd week and can only have water, broth, decaf coffee, 1/4 cup skim milk a day, sugar free jello and popsicles/freezies.   

I wish you all the best!

 

Surgery Date: November 7, 2014 - Dr. Yelle, Ottawa - HW:298 SW: 275.4

The amount of weeks depend on your weigh 2 weeks is if you weigh in the 200's, 3 weeks for 300's, and 4 weeks for 400's and so on atleast that was how it was explained to me.

I had someone from university hospital in Toronto call me, I'm not very familiar with the hospitals in Toronto so I'm not sure if their the same?

The weeks by weight isn't always true. I had Dr. Lindsay and he requires all patients do a min. 3 weeks and I had to do 4 although I was just under 300lbs.
