    Its worth it! I get a free health coach who is available anytime I need her. She quides me through my healthy eating. I have so much more energy after just a few weeks, and feel so much better than ever! I have tried so many plans and this is by far the best and most sustainable!

    Do you track your calorie intake?

    I do track my caloric intake. (Personal choice) I currently average around 1000-1100 calories/day. I am not hungry through the day. Eating the balanced meals every 2-3 hours keeps me satisfied.

    Do you exercise? If you do, you should eat more calories to fuel your workouts. Your intake is very low, so if you start to feel a little peckish and want to chew your arm off, you could raise your intake and still lose weight.

    Good luck!

    I just started Optavia on Monday! So today is day five. How long did it take for you to start feeling so much more energy? I just 'rejoined' MFP again today and will try to combine the two. :)
