Try adding pure cocoa to the vanilla. I wasn't fond of it either and that's what I did, and it makes a big difference!

There are no stupid questions

. I bought pure cocoa from the Bulk Barn, I'm pretty sure it's the same as regular baking cocoa. I used a tsp in each vanilla shake. I did ask about it pre-opti at the pre-op class and was told it was ok ( I knew the vanilla would just be too sweet for my liking ).

I hear if you add the cocoa to the vanilla it actually tastes better than the chocolate Opti.

add chocolate SF flavoring to it. Did you try coffee powder already?

Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.

Where did you get the SF Khaluaha? I have been looking and haven't been able to find. I'm not at the opti stage yet so I have some time to get some. Hopefully next month I will be starting Opti.

Put your heart, mind, and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the secret of success.
