  1. Anyone on Optifast?

    friendofbander replied to ratgirl's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
    Hello everyone My best friend is being banded on October 14th (she doesnt have a computer). Anyway, she was supposed to be on Optifast for 3 weeks. She is not doing very well with it. I would say that out of each week, she might have 4 days that she is able to stick to this (3 shakes/day with unlimited veggies). I am concerned that she is jepoardizing her chances of a successful surgery. Has anyone who has had the surgery, had difficulty with the pre-op restrictions as well? If so.. how did you make out? Thanks very much
