Yep. I didn't like it. Something about texture/taste of it frozen wasn't appealing.

try this hun:
mix 500mls of water in a jug you can shake with 1 single package of crystal light of your choice (i use mixed berry or cherry pom or tangerine pom or strawberry kiwi) and then add in your shake powder and shake the crap out of the jug. its a little sweet for some ppl but for me its just right and i actually look forward to having them!!!
tonight i tried adding more water because i wanted more to drink so i can feel fuller but it ended up tasting really disgusting. i find 500mls of water to be the perfect amount!!

Referral was sent in April of 2011 and my Surgery is scheduled for Oct 20 of 2011 :D

i put it in the blender with lots of ice cubes, less water,and it turned out like a wendy's froster.

Try using 300 ml decaf coffee with 5 ice cubes add either chocolate or vanilla Optifast and blend the heck out of it. The vanilla tastes like a French Vanilla Cappachino and the Chocolate tastes like a cafe moca.

Awesome.

Hi

I mixed mine with rasberry crystal light! Starbucks also has sugar free almond syrup.

Hope this helps! All the best!
