OPTIFAST®

OPTIFAST® is a highly successful medical weight loss program that uses meal replacements to help you lose weight. Medical supervision is highly recommended for severely overweight and obese patients ready to lose weight. Involving a physician in your weight loss program will provide you with the support and motivation necessary to meet your weight loss goal successfully. In addition, your physician will conduct an initial screening that includes a weight loss history, a physical exam, blood tests, and an EKG to ensure that the OPTIFAST® program is right for you.

One of the biggest benefits of this weight loss plan is that it removes all the questions surrounding food choices or calorie levels. The OPTIFAST® program uses a low-calorie diet that makes it easy to lose weight by reducing your calorie intake. The OPTIFAST® shakes, soups, and bars are nutritionally packed to keep you full despite your reduced calorie intake. The OPTIFAST® products taste great and are incredibly simple to prepare, making this weight loss program hassle-free.

After the first week on the OPTIFAST® weight loss plan, most patients stop craving their previous regular diet. At this point in the program, most people also stop feeling hungry. After several weeks of active and rapid weight loss, our program shifts into a transitional phase during which you will slowly begin to eat self-prepared foods. Long-term weight management after the OPTIFAST® program is possible through a commitment to diet and lifestyle changes. Increasing exercise and consuming a nutrient-packed diet balanced in fruits and vegetables, and protein is crucial to long-term weight loss success.

While participating in the OPTIFAST® program, your daily calorie intake will be dramatically reduced. In many patients, this calorie reduction results in four to five pounds of weight loss every week!
