Started Optifast!!

Well I started Optifast today. It is not as bad as I thought, has a little after taste. I am feeling very hungry, hope that feeling goes away. I did meet a lady yesterday at Guelph who was having her pre-op, she is a member and I would like her to add me, and to wish her luck on her surgery on the 8th.

The "starving" feeling does go away after a few days.  Just make sure you get all 4 in in a day and LOTS of water.  Best wishes!

I didn't find opti fast so bad, considering its only for a few weeks, hell I spend years abusing my body, a few weeks is nothing.

As said, the first few days are the hardest - I have only 5 more days of Optifast and sometimes I find that I've forgotten about the shake, and it's an hour past mealtime.  I tried something new tonight - made decaf espresso and added it to the water (total 300 mls) and mixed a vanilla shake.  Was just like iced mochachino.....

 Hijack!  Hi Kelly D, I am also having surgery with Dr. Lindsay.  Can't wait to count down the days!  Have you been on it for 3 weeks???

 Good for you!  It's not as bad as you think it's going to be, is it??  Your date will be here soon enough! Good luck!
