I used a blender - 1 cup of water + 1 cup of ice. I did Optifast Diet a few years ago twice.

I think your feelings are where they should be. This is a lifelong journey. I had the opportunity to speak with several nurses socially prior to and post op. Told them about my trepidations and they felt I would be crazy to not have those feelings. FYI none said "don't" do it!

I am one week into opti and down 7.8lbs - surgery is Sept 1st...

My favourite is Chocolate w/ coconut extract or Chocolate w/ banana extract..

although I really enjoyed an "ice creamy" type one on the weekend, loaded up the magic bullet with a ton of ice, vanilla opti, with just a small amount of water, and caramel syrup and blended away, came out nice and creamy like ice cream.. delicious after being on the baseball diamond all weekend... :)
