Well I watched my watch today and at no time did my HR go over 160and yet at the end I checked it and it said my maximum HR was 202. It is not right.

I saw my doctor today and got my products. I am starting tomorrow. I am doing 4 products and 1 cooked meal per day. I am really nervous about being successful. Long road ahead as I have over 100 lbs to lose.

Hi Supporters of Optifast! I am starting the program in 2 weeks on the advice of my doctor. I have over 120 lbs to lose. I am hopeful this will work for me. I am looking forward to the weekly nutritional counseling and support. I read all 13 pages on this thread and I am happy to read about all the success!

My favorite breakfast now! 1 egg 1 zuccini OR Squash shredded cheese (optional) Shred the zuccini with a gheese grater Mix in one egg Heat a tsp of oil in frying pan and drop in spoonfuls of mixture, flip when edges are brown. I also do this with 1 yellow squash. Nice low carb fast breakfast!

I eat the same breakfast every morning. Have been for several months now.

I was on Met for 6 months 500 mg 3 times a day. I didnt lose a single pound the entire time I was on it.

Me me! Same here! I will be on a roll and making progress then bam binge city! There is no such thing as a controlled portion here. If I have one bite of something like chips or sweets I will binge all day! and probably the next day. I have to treat it like a drug and am an addict. Sounds extreme but in my case its true. I…

Yes I am 2 days into a protein fast. I do it to get my blood sugar under control. After 2 days I always add my veggies back in. Yes you lose weight. I lost 3 lbs of WATER overnight but anyway.

I lost 75 lbs on it and have gained back 30. If you DO NOT stick to the plan you will gain weght back and very quickly for some reason.

I LOVE unsweetened almond milk. It taste great. I do not (intentionally) eat anything with HFCS in it, I think its poison. I do have a whey protein powder shake every now and then

I forgot to mention my dad had 3 stints put in at the age of 49 my mom had 3 put in at 58. I am feeling doomed, I will be 40 this year.

Mine is horrible. My husband and I had been together a few years dating. He was previously married for 19 years. This day in particular we were out looking for a house. He accidentally called me his ex's name. So I told him to take me home. 2 hours later he came over with an engagement ring and asked me to marry him!…

I eat UTZ no salt chips. Love them!

Try to get plenty of protein and stay away from high sugary and processed foods they will make you more hungry. Vegetables are lower calorie.

Gala and the small ones are the most crips.

I take Prilosec for it and it always works. I hate taking it but I do find when I cut out all processed foods and sugar I dont have the reflux as bad.
