3rd Day on Opti
Hi everyone,
Well on my third day of Opti. So far so good!!!! I have to do two weeks and so I got a weeks worth of Chocolate and a weeks worth of Vanilla. So far I love the Vanila, have made it hot and cold and I love both!! I am not a fan of the Chocolate... at all! I am going to go back to Medical Mart and see if I can get more Vanilla. The Chocolate is just so fake tasting to me and since I have a sweet tooth the Vanilla is really tasty to me, just like a Vanilla milkshake. So far have not had any side effects (SO FAR) so hoping the next 11 days go as smooth as the first three! Went to my parents house for a party and they ordered Pizza PIzza and their Chicken Bites (Pizza's Pizza's version of a Chicken nugget) and normally that would be my favourite meal but I sat back, away from the table but still in the room and sipped my vanilla opti slowly and had a SF jello for "dessert". Drank A LOT of ice water with lemon and that helped so much! I am getting more and more excited as the "date" gets closer. Nov 15th here I come!!
Have a great Sunday everyone!

Good stuff!! :)
I thought the chocolate was too sweet at first - I now make it in my Magic Bullet with ice, so it's more like a frosty. My morning one gets instant decaf coffee added, then sometimes I'll add caramel SF Torani in the afternoon, but other times, just the chocolate on its own. :)

I prefer the vanilla opti myself. I am surprised that I find decaf coffee to taste amazing in it. Prefer that over my syrups. I tried a few flavors of crystal light but found that to be too sweet for me. Two weeks will go by fast, when it does get tough remember there are a few people that had to be on it for a month or more.
