    It is primarily a very low calorie liquid diet (meal replacement).
    Some would refer to it as modified fasting, I suppose. Here in the
    states at least, you have to go through a physician that carries the
    stuff to do it. I had a neighbor that did it once, and he lost weight
    so rapidly that he was going to a discount store every other week to
    buy a couple of pairs of pants so he'd have something to wear that
    didn't fall off. This guy was pretty determined though and did not
    cheat on the diet. He has also been able to keep the weight off going
    on five years now because he permanently modified lifestyle and eating
    habits after losing.

    Others I've known that lost weight on this or other liquid diets
    didn't keep the weight off because they weren't willing to permanently
    change the habits that caused them to gain the weight in the first
    place. Go to google and type in "Optifast" to get to their website if
    you want to read more. Hope this helps.

  3. Thanks.. We can get it directly from the chemists here.. Two weeks full-on
