Hooray for Opti :) Day One down

Yesterday I started Opti.. I Am on it for 3 weeks. Besides the gross taste of vanilla, I made out just fine yesterday. I am starving this morning though trying to drink the feeling  away with water. I don't mind the chocolate ones.. 

Good for you! I am almost done my three week stint on it and i loved the shakes the chocolate was definately better tasting.  Maie sure you drink alot of water inbetween your sgakes it will help with the hunger.  Be prepared you may get a real nasty headache i know i sure did on day 2 but its normal.  I found its all in your head about craving food.  It feels weird to not actually chew anything but you will do great.

Thanks I am feel pretty good today, if I can feel like this the next 3 weeks it will fly by. I am drinking 3 cups a water in between . Bathroom trips are happening a lot its amazing how you can drink 12 cups a day when you aren't eating solid foods lol

Lol I hear you on the bathroom feels like I am pregnant again lol

It will fly by. I am on day 10 of 14 days. Surgery is Tuesday the 17th.

I absolutely hated the taste of the chocolate shake for 3 days and then it was fine.

I've been adding mango sugar free drops to the vanilla - it tastes like a smoothie.

I also added vanilla to coffee one morning and it was a little like a latte.

Good Luck!

I hope it continues to go smoothly for you, and definitely drink all tha****er or you might get "plugged" up. Haha.  I am on day 9 of 41...

Oh wow 41 days, ok 21 days doesn't seem so bad..

Ha, I know eh. It's really not too bad...its just the dang head hunger!!

I'm right there with you all!  I just finished day 4 and I'm surprised that it's going well.  I'm on for 4 weeks.  I really dreaded the thought of no food last week, but decided to take one shake at a time.  I didn't much like the vanilla the first day, but now like it.  Also, I added a crystal light powder in the flavour of my choice, with some ice in my magic bullet and it's like a thick, cold milkshake!  I have been experiencing some "cotton mouth" and wanting to brush my teeth more than usual.  Anyone else experience this? 

The water is key....also, I can have 2 cups certain veggies/day which I have close to bedtime to keep stomach from rumbling before sleep.  Keep up the great work everyone!  This is a journey, not a race!

Best to you all! 

Oh gosh I have cotton mouth! My teeth are hairier now than they were when I was eating food!!  I am going to keep sensodyne in business over the next month!!
