Optifast 1 week down , 1 week to go

Hi everyone, you probably remember me from my other post a few days ago. I was really struggling the first couple of days of optifast. Just like you all told me it definitely got a lot better. Weird enough at first I hated the chocolate and preferred the vanilla. But now, I like the chocolate much better then the vanilla. Another thing that helped was I switched the syrups I was using. Before I used the caramel with the chocolate opti and the vanilla with the vanilla opti. I swtiched them around and that was a huge help. I still don't like the shakes but it has gotten so much easier then it was at first. Surgery is coming up and I'm super excited.

Hi there I'm glad to hear that the opti fast gets better. I am currently waiting to have my pre surgery class and the thought of 2 weeks of a liquid diet is rather scary. So I'm glad to hear it gets better as time goes on. Good luck.

That's great news that you found an Optifast formula that works for you! It does get easier as the days go by. Not too much more to endure now! You got this

I used decaffeinated coffee to help with some taste. Really worked well for me.

You're almost there!! You got this. :)

You over the hump now so its all down hill from here on.. you got this... I found my energy level increasing about half way though..

Way to go; you're half way there! You'll be on the loser's bench before you know it! Woohoo!

I found opti the hardest part so far. Once I got past the first few days it did get better. I had a really nasty headache a few days in. Hang in there. You are almost there! Good luck on your upcoming surgery!

I just finished my first week too. Man, although I like the shakes, this time around is harder than the last time around! (I was on them for 3 months back in 2015!!)

I can't recall if I mentioned it in your previous post, but black cherry syrup with the chocolate shakes is. to. die. for!! Also, I like strawberry syrup in the vanilla shakes :)

good luck and cheers!
