I miss food more than I miss my exboyfriend. But at least I can find humourous ways of dealing with it, right?

I'm on day three of Optifast, and everyone in my family is cutting me a wide berth right now. (Case in point? My mother asked me if I would mind going with her to pick up something for my brother to eat for dinner (typical italians..) My response? 'Why would I want to go with you to get food I can't eat for a person I don't like'? Of course, then I realized I was being a crankster and started laughing.)

Seriously though, the sound of a blender is turning my stomach. I hate Optifast. With a passion. When I see the box containing the packages, I shoot it dirty looks. I don't want to be friends. It tastes like chalk. I've never liked chalk.

I'm feeling the urge to call up everyone I've ever had a problem with and start something, because Flying Purple Hotdog Machine help me, I have the chutzpah to do it right now.

Any other commiserators?

Mix it with LOTS of ice.....even add some vanilla extract....or rum extract......I even add vanilla to the chocolate optifast and with LOTS of ice.....it actually does taste like a milkshake

hi swetforlife

where do you buy the Optifast?

I ordered it through my Doctor. He gave me a form and I ordered it via fax.
