Just keep your eyes on your goal and you'll be fine.

As for the question about sweet, it's not because of our size that they make it sweet. For some reason they figure that the sweet will hide the "medicine" taste of things. You'll find a lot of medical products are sweet, or have a coating so you don't taste it. Even children's meds. Not all kids like things that sweet. Trust me. And when you look up how to hide the taste of crushed pills, the first thing they say is to put it in jam. Hmm, not for us, especially the first while. Applesauce and yogurt are better choices but may not hide all the taste.

I am doing the 12 week only Opti and am only half way done! Smile as you think of other sufferers of Opti grossness who still have 6 more weeks to go :( Hope that makes you feel better! PS, don't make pudding out of it. Someone suggested just a little water to make a pudding out of it...honestly, I threw up. Disgusting!
