Sherry I'm on it now....I'm supposed to be on Optifast. It's not so bad taste-wise, but it's only an 8oz drink 6x a day!!!!! (I'm so hungry I can eat a small child!) Tonight I may mix an OptiFast with skim milk and ice and make a shake!!!! Wow - I'm living now! My dietician also mentioned that I can substitute a "Lipton Cup-Of-Soup" for an Optifast but to be careful as they are very high in sodium. I have one week to go before surgery!
