THE OPTIFAST VERY LOW CALORIE DIET

The program has 4 phases, the first being the intensive weight loss phase and the last being the maintenance phase. 

As the phases progress, less meal replacements are used, more food types are included and weight loss stabilizes. During the last phase of the program, you start following a completely food based diet again.

The following products are available: 

Chocolate, Vanilla, Coffee and Strawberry shakes, Lemon Creme dessert, Berry Crunch bars

You can order these products via your dietitian or via retailers like Takealot.com.

Optifast Very Low Calorie program has been designed to help you lose fat at an accelerated rate of 1.2-2.5 kg per week. 

Keep in mind that on a balanced weight loss diet, expected weight loss is about 0.5-1 kg per week.

It is advised that you follow the program under supervision of a registered dietitian.
