I did it!! I made it through my first day of Optifast. It wasn't so bad! I have 6 flavors of Davinci s/f syrups so I created some very tasty shakes today. I basically made sure that I was always full by drinking tea, water having some Jell-O and drinking some chicken or beef broth in between shakes. I did get a headache twice today but good ole Advil came to the rescue. Overall day one was very good, I hope the the other 20 will be the same. My kids wanted KFC tonight because of the Tooney Tuesday deal. I got it for them and I sat in the couch with my shake while they ate at the table. I was so proud of myself. 

Feeling great about the future.

Hi, I purchased a 2 bottles Mississauga at the LCG Express @ Nutrition House Extra, at Heartland Town Center just Across from WINNERS they were $12.99 then I purchased 4 other online www.locarbgrocery.com for $10.40 each and they have so many flavours! Enjoy!

good job, you can do this! One thing to maybe think about changing is your advil to Tylenol since we aren't suppose to use advil after surgery.

One day at a time!

I am so glad it went well. Just like you I had a few headaches but small price to pay for the prize in the end!!

Good for you and I hope today is even easier to get thru...with our health being the number one reason for all this ...we can't over look the bonus prize of a new body....one that can help us move easier...one that allows us to be able to do things we always fear... I discover a site that had me playing around for a bit...it was called http://www.modelmydiet.com/

It let you put in your current weight and your goal weight. Kinda fun to see how we might look at the end...hope this is allowed here.
