Optifast-Day One

I had my first  Vanilla Optifast this morning and it is horrid-I would appreciate any suggestions to make this a little easier to get down.  I also did my "before" photos and my measurements-this alone will make the next liquid meal a little more tolerable.  Hope everyone had a great New Years.

Mix it with coffee and ice in a blender.  That is what I did with all my shakes and found it palatable at least.  I did Meditrim not Optifast. Good luck!

I will be starting optifast too, but did you mean decaf because I thought we are not supposed to have caffeine before surg? Thanks

The only way I could get them down was to add Cinnamon.
The first few days are the worst - but really - you do just get used to it - PLUS the excitement builds as you get closer to your surgery date.
YOU CAN DO IT!!! :) :)

A TON of ice...it makes it into quite a lot...but much easier to get down. Mixed with cold coffee is how I usually did it...also add nutmeg or cinnamon.
Good luck!!!!

We were allowed caffeine, coffee, tea, diet drinks. But it could be different for you.
