description Optifast Overview
Participation in the OPTIFAST® program includes 3 key phases designed to help patients lose weight by helping change their relationship with food and eating. Each patient receives an individual evaluation to customize the program to meet their individual needs. During this phase, the patient will eat a diet of OPTIFAST® full meal replacement products. Self-prepared foods are gradually reintroduced into the diet, while patients attend classes to help change the way they think about and approach food and eating.
Patients should continue to attend ongoing support sessions to help them maintain their weight loss and manage weight long-term.
