Optifast vanilla vs chocolate

Well I have been on Optifast for 5 days now and I bought 3 boxes of chocolate and threw in a box of vanilla for the heck of it. I have totally enjoyed the chocolate, very tasty and delicious.
Tonight I tried the vanilla and it is just alright.
Mind you I LOVE anything chocolate but the vanilla is just that, vanilla. Not horrible but not yummy.
So newbies if you love chocolate shakes stick with the chocolate. I will leave my vanilla for my last shake of the day because there is no way I could survive on 14 straight vanilla shakes.
I 'm just saying, though  I am sure I will have some oppostion!
I am down 5 lbs in 5 days not too bad.

P.S. don't forget to vote tomorrow, cause if you don't vote you can't B*tch !!!  

I agree. The chocolate is bearable. The vanilla doesnt even taste like vanilla to me. Its pretty bland and boring.

Hi Shawn,

sorry I missed the meeting today at Raxx. I am hoping you could do another for us Kingston folks.

I have had my first group info session in Ottawa. Just waiting for my call.

Hi tata!

What about mixing the vanilla with some SF flavouring or Crystal Light or cold decaf coffee to make it taste a bit better? 
Congratulations on 5 lbs in 5 days - that's fantastic!

Excellent work, 5lbs already..way to go!! 

I hated the chocolate and loved the vanilla as it was easily doctored up.  Since you love the chocolate, you could do what others did, they mixed one pack of vanilla with a pack of chocolate to give it all chocolate flavour.  Some even added unsweetened cocoa powder to it to make it more chocolatey.  Not sure if you are a coffee lover or not, but the vanilla mixed with strong cold coffee and a shot of caramel syrup is good.  I drank most of mine with either strong cold coffee or strong cold chai tea with extra cardommon and cinnamon mixed in.

Can someone tell me if the optifast is a milk based shake?  What do you mix it with?

Thanks!

It has milk protein in it and you mix it with water.

I had 2 boxes chocolate, 2 boxes vanilla.. I ended up mixing 1/2 pkg of chocolate with 1/2 pkg of vanilla for nearly all my meals, as I preferred the mixture to the plain chocolate or the plain vanilla.
