Success Stories

This really works...

47yo Male

Was 145 kg

Lost 21.2 kg

NOW 123.8 kg

I am a 46 year old male with many health issues such as blood pressure, diabetes, Neuropathy in my feet and my Dr told me I had to do something drastic or suffer amputations of my feet within 10 years, which really scared the hell out of me. So my Dr suggested that I look at Optifast as in her opinion this was the only meal replacement diet to do that worked. So on the 28th April I started. The first two weeks I must admit were extremely hard and I didn't know if I could do it. But since then it has became much easier and at the start of my seventh week I have lost just over 20kgs. My wife who went on the diet to support me has lost 15 kgs. It is truly marvelous and I look forward to the first time in my life actually being slim.

I am becoming a new woman...

35yo

Was 171 kg

Lost 33.3 kg

NOW 137.7 kg

I have forever been overweight. I went to my doctors and asked her for some assistance. I was once again put on Duromine and then also referred to the (Optifast) weightloss management programme. Was not long before I was contacted and the ball was started rolling. Here I am in week 7 of the programme and can not believe how much I have changed. Not only physically, but emotionally. I dont feel as though I suffer from a huge amount of depression anymore and able to pick myself up and move on if I start to feel sad and unmotivated. Life just gets better every day. I have now been on this journey since 1st March 2008 and have lost 32.1kg, I still have 40kg to go, but I have slapped off a big chunk of my weight. I do however get side tracked and need to keep myself focused and remind myself why I am here.

Dont give up...

46yo

Was 87.7 kg

Lost 4 kg

NOW 83.3 kg

I have now been on the Optifast Program for 4 months and to date I have lost almost 20 kilos. I must admit at times it is not easy but when you notice the weight loss by your clothes getting baggy or you fit into a smaller size it feels so good. I started in size 18-20 and am now wearing size 14 so to anyone out there struggling to lose weight why not give Optifast a try. I have also had great support from my family and especially from my wonderful doctor. It is very important to be monitored by your doctor while you are on the Optifast Program. I still have another 23 kilos to go to reach my goal weight but am very determined to reach it. Good luck to everybody on this program I wish you every success in your weight loss journey. Don't give up because we can all get there in the end.

I started Optifast VLCD on the 11th January 2010 after my 50th birthday. I had been on a plateau for just on 2 years and could not seem to budge my weight in any direction.
