I'm embarrassed to say that I have tried OPTAVIA in the past. It wasn't for me. People seem to get sick using the products and I'm interested in learning more about others' experiences. The name I was asking for is not a forum member, it is the name of the doctor mentioned in the other thread.

Yup! I second what she said! It also looks like other diet fads have descended upon MFP...like OPTAVIA...ie Medifast-rebranded.

Yea these products and all the "health coach" guru's popping up on social media piss me off. Selling processed foods to people who really need exercise and eating real whole foods (ie: just less calories).

This community appears to be under invasion by OPTAVIA sales reps cough* cough*, I mean "coaches"

I've come across numerous individuals who suffered the same side effects. You are not alone. Please PM me.

I'd like to hear more about your experience. Sounds awful! PM me if you prefer.

Can you share the name? I'm curious.
