OMG Vanilla Optifast Hell

I mixed a pkt of the chocolate and a pkt of vanilla (while it is dry). I drank every shake that way as nothing seemed to kill the taste for me. You can either do it by taking equal spoonfulls from each pkt or I put a pkt of each in a container dry, gave it a shake and then used 1/2 for one 'meal'.

Hope things get better.

Now that's a great idea Kristie. Will try that at lunch time before I go shopping.

I agree 100% with Kristie.... 1/2 chocolate and 1/2 vanillia mixed together with 500ml of water... nice and cold... thats the only way I could drink them and I also was on them for 3 weeks. I dont know how else I would have made it through!!!!

I found that using a vanilla optifast with a raspberry peach crystal light was okay, not too bad.
My favourite though is using vanilla optifast with a bit of SF vanilla DaVinci syrup and a bit of banana extract and lots of water (450-500mls). I mix that in my blender bottle and then add 4 ice cubes. I find I need the vanilla colder than the chocolate. Hope that helps.

I'm on day 6 and I have to say I really like both flavours. In the vanilla I use 3 ice cubes with either 1 tsp of decaf instant coffee or 1 raspberry ice crystal light and it is really good. Mix it up really good in the magic bullet and it's nice and cold. I find the raspberry makes it like a milkshake. I add the decaf coffee or hazelnut/raspberry syrup to the chocolate as well. It's only for 2 weeks and they will go fast. Good luck to you.

I put Almond Extract in the Vanilla, it was the only way I could stomach it.

Good Luck

Okay, I just got back from the grocery store. I purchased cocoa, crystal light tangerine, & raspberry ice. I stopped at Starbucks and picked up a bottle of SF Caramel. I didn't bother with the decaf coffee as I normally don't like coffee at the best of times.

I have just made a vanilla with tangerine crystal light. Not Bad.

Thanks again everyone, the amount of support on this website is phenominal.
