So, consensus seems to be that the Vanilla Opti is just this side of vile, and could be used in warfare People have suggested coffee which is definitely good, but if you're allowed SF jello, then blend that, the Opti water and LOTS of ice and YUM, Orangecicle Smoothis :)

Happy day to all,

Just to clarify- I meant the little individual prepaid SF jello

Yeah. Vile . Good word! i'm on day 3 of 21 of optimafast. I definitely favour the chocolate. If itwasn't for the decaf coffee and icecubes I don't think I could keep it down. Only 24 packets of the vanilla left!! Woo hoo ... Lost 2 lbs in 2 days though...

Have a fantastic day!!!

I'm on Day 27 of 28 and I don't know if 'vile' is a strong enough word for Vanilla Optifast.

I actually got some orange extract and was using that for awhile, but on day 20 of 21, I can't even do that anymore. It's decaf coffee crystals only, because it's the only thing that masks that cake batter taste! I don't know what was up with my taste buds during the nutrition class; at the time I definitely preferred it to the chocolate. So I sensibly ordered 4 boxes of vanilla and 2 of chocolate. What a fool! I would go back in time and switch that ratio. However, I've nearly done it and I guess the true best additive is ice.

Hi everyone,

I am 20 days post op and vanilla shouldn't even be a choice...but then chocolate wasn't great either, but when we are forced to drink this stuff chocolate would be my choice. I hated Opti so much that it got to the point I just blended and gulped! Good luck to everyone with their Opti I am so happy I have left that part of the journey...LOL
