Hello all, I begin the next phase of my WLS journey on Friday am by beginning my Optifast diet. My surgeon is Dr. Sohi, and I received a sheet with my box of Optifast that provided me with instructions about the allotment of a max of 2 cups of veggies a day, endless water, sugar free and calorie free drinks, etc. My question is this.  Is jello allowed? I've found some that are sugar free, but not CALORIE free. Does all of the sugar free flavorings, crystal light, etc have to be CALORIE free as well as sugar free?? Thank you in advance for any advice

Yes for sure it is, they even spoke of sf jello at our orientation and at my dietician meeting. You can call HRRH 416-747-3720 and ask them, but most everyone I know thru HRRH ate sf jello during opti. Good luck, your SO close now angry
