I am sure this question has been asked before, but, I usually hit the gym in the mornings, is it okay for me to still workout while on Opti?

 

I just want to make sure I don't overdo it as I am not taking in what I use to food wise.

 

Thanks,

Katie H.

I would definitely give yourself a day or two to see how you feel. Many people find they are lethargic or have blood sugar issues as the body adjusts to less calories.  See how you feel.

Better safe than sorry.

I did my work out while on Opti. I did half a mile swim than water work out than another half a mile. On my third week there was a day i had to leave doing the water work out. Just did not have it in me.

Thanks, this is a big help, I will give it a few days and see how I feel before I hit the cardio machines at normal pace.
