First day on Optifast...

I never found it to be metallic tasting at all. It could be the water you're using is making it taste metallic. Try ice cold bottled water, in different varieties until you find one you can stand.

I was on it for 3 weeks and the first few days were bad, but I grew to like it. Hang in there; you can get through this.

If you're actually throwing up though, you should call your centre to let them know. Maybe they'll switch you to something else.

I was told 3 weeks too.....Slime stuff .. I think....one of these days I will know... good luck girls! I will feel your pain soon :(

I just managed to get half a shake down and seem to be keeping it down so far. So I think that's enough torture for one day! Lol

I've got to admit I kinda liked them. Especially the chocolate. I haven't had surgery yet but had the opportunity to try it for a week. Cold is best and shake or blend really well. Hang in there!
