Had my 1st surgeons meeting last week with Dr. Starr, and one of my many questions to him was 'is optifast really that bad??' He said, he has at least 1 every day! He loves it with lots of ice, and says if his wife would let him, he would drink 3 a day! So.....it can't be all that bad right?? lol

I didn't mind the chocolate. It's one of the few "milkshakes" that I could drink with out serious side effects. In ways I miss it now. No planning, no thinking. Just drink on schedule. And I didn't even have the idea of cafemocha at the time. Sounds good.
