Icky Poo Caca Mikey!!  lol

I totally agree with the others :)

I threw out so much Optifast when I realised it did expire and was by a year :(  Sucked but I was worried about how it would affect my innards and me. 

I did not mind it much either but totally agree with you about the temporary wt loss!! 

Most I lost was 55lbs...I was a sucker for punishment kept going back for more.  Sad I wasted so much time and lost out on a great opportunity, but was gullible thinking docs were on my side...Not so much as it turns out.

Oh well...If you do decide to continue drinking it, post often so we know you are alive and not have turned into a mutant or something  lol

Bottom's up!!  (Shiver)

we went back too....

my wife lost 135lbs on it once (during the transition afterwards and that, up to about a year, i think) but, even though she was excerciing everyday, eating very healthy, the weight came right back!!!  it was awful

i never want that feeling again

p.s.  lol, what is wrong with mutants?  YOU SPECIESIST!!!!!!

LMAO  Speciesest 

Are you kidding?  I would love to be a mutant with wicked powers  lol  My kids would get a kick out of it too :P  (which power I have no idea as there are too many to choose from!)

I am sorry to hear about your wife losing so much and gaining it all back!!  That it devastating!!  I think this is the problem with every diet anyone has been on...you have to eat  like that for the rest of your life...and if it involved using products, start writing the cheques!! 

My Mom has done Optifast twice successfully only to regain....her solution is to get back on shakes whenever she gains back 10 lbs...so she goes back to the clinic and buys a box or two to get her down again.  Thankfully she can afford it and it works for her, but still, she will have to do this for the rest of her life.  She was thinking recently about banding, but I don't think she will do it. 

I would love to see the actual long term results study for Optifast...I really see it as a short list unless everyone is doing what my Mom does  lol

Optifast is really not enough IMO for those who are seriously overweight...not as a long term solution, but hey what do I know  lol  I got laughed at for wanting help filling out OOC papers for RNY 2-3 yrs ago...only to find out a month back that for sure I would qualify (according to a diff doc)...  I lay flat, call me Mat  ;)

and now for an important message based on logic just for you........

Optifasts success rate is only 5 %
Dent's program is 100% optifast based .
Therefore Dent's success rate is only 5%.

So why is Dent, OHIP's Obesity expert?

Oh that's right! I forgot, OHIP has their heads up there ass's. And they think Dent is great cause he not only gave them the lube but keeps pushing them in furthur.

Back to your regularly scheduled programing.........

So is this some sort of DS thing Ed ate 20 yr old army food and you guys are drinking something that is 8 years expired.....Lord knows how long ago it was made.

I have to agree with one of the posts I read....EEEwwwwwwwwww icky pooh is right.

I do give bravery rewards though.

How you ever managed to drink something that could poison you. Brave, brave people.
