Optifast - expected results
Down 15 lbs. in 2 weeks, doing all 4 every day, no matter what. And if I felt like it, adding in SF Jello, Crystal Light drinks.
Think of the OF as a medicine prescription - 4/day is what you're told to do, so get them in. I used to come home from work at 1am and have my last one if I didn't get it in at work.

MY RNY DIDN'T FAIL ME - I FAILED IT.
I was on optifast for 2 weeks and lost 22 lbs. I have to say I really liked them, just put lots of ice in it, the colder the better. I bought all kinds of sugar free syrups and didn't need them.
I did it in the summer so hot broth wasn't really what I wanted. Had sugar free popsicles and jello for treats.
