The Optifast Weight loss programme requires commitment and extends over 4 phases.

The Optifast weight loss programme is filled with variety allowing you the freedom to chose from the 11 Optifast products on offer to replace meals. It also incorporates certain vegetables and fruits to provide a balanced, low calorie weight loss programme that produces visible results.

The Optifast weight loss programme must be undertaken under medical supervision and is suitable for people with a BMI>30 or BMI>27 with accompanying medical conditions that are associated with obesity. The most common of these conditions are, non-insulin dependent diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and other heart problems.

The four phases of the OPTIFAST weight loss programme are:

1. 
   
   Intensive Phase
   During this initial phase, Optifast replaces ALL meals and must be taken in combination with 2 cups of low-starch, green vegetables and 2 litres of water per day. Click here to see a list of allowed low starch vegetables.
   
   


2. 
   
   Transition Phase
   One low calorie meal (approximately 300-350 calories) is introduced, in combination with 2 cups of low starch vegetables, 2 serves of fruit, 1 serve of dairy (see Allowed Foods List) and 2 litres of water per day.
   
   


3. 
   
   Maintenance Phase
   Once this phase is reached, Optifast replaces just ONE meal a day – in combination with two low calorie meal (approximately 300-350 calories each),  2 cups of low starch vegetables, 2 serves of fruit, 1 serve of dairy (see Allowed Foods List) and 2 litres of water per day.
   
   


4. 
   
   
   

   Stabilisation Phase
   Once weight loss goals have been achieved, you should be at a stage where you no longer require Optifast and you are eating healthy, low calorie meals. However, it is vital to maintain weight loss by ensuring calorie intake is restricted to less than about 1500 calories per day. Your health professional may advise you to use Optifast intermittently if you go above your healthy goal weight.

   
   
   
   

Some people may choose to start on the Transition Phase of Optifast if it is easier to start on one meal replacement and slowly build up. The Maintenance Phase, replacing one meal per day could also be used by people who only have a small amount of weight to lose - normally less than 5% of their current body weight.
