Taste difference between opti and premier protein

Thank you Daizymom!! I hope I get approved as well and the liver cysts are not an issue.
I hope you don't have to wait too long.
I wish you luck on your journey too!!
I will update all when I see the surgeon next Friday, cause tomorrow's appt with him was delayed to next week, as he isn't in the clinic tomorrow. ??
Let us know how things move forward over next few months!!
It was the texture of the Optifast that really bugged me, they're kind of gritty and I felt like my mouth was chalky after. Premier shakes are much smoother and taste way better IMHO.

I actually didn't mind opti - although I plugged my nose and chugged it after mixing it with water and lots of ice. The first day I didn't like it then I got used to it and looked forward to them. On the other hand I don't like premier protein so I may not be a good judge for you on this one! Lol
good luck - very exciting that your getting closer!
