So much more real now! Trying to figure out how to space my shakes! I know they say every 4 hours but i rarely eat after 7 and having a shake that late seems not realistic to my schedule. Also means my surgery date is exactly 21 days away!!!!! Very Excited!!!

Congratulations! I'm on my 10th day of Optifast, almost half way. I guess depending on what time you get up in the morning would determine how to space your shakes. I have my first one around 8am and generally space them every 4 hours but I've done 3.5 hours and 5 hours apart. Just depends on my schedule. I usually have my last one around 8pm at night. The key thing to spacing them out is to make sure you don't develop low sugar and fatigue but you are the one who would know your body and can determine that. Good Luck.

p.s Optifast is not that bad, mike with some SF flavoring and lots of ice and its great. And the hunger cravings do past.
