Hi! Unfortunately I was one of those people who had a bad time with the Optifast - to say the least. I spent about 14 hours the second day vomiting from it, and refused to drink any more after that day. Chances are you won't have as bad of a reaction as me, but I would recommend taking a day or two if you can just to make sure.
