At my centre HRRH cocoa is a go. But it needs to be pure cocoa, baking cocoa. That's all I used for my opti and I also bought only vanilla.

Good luck, your almost there! I actually miss opti,

I checked with the nurse practitioner in Ottawa and she said it would be okay if I only did one shake with the cocoa per day and tried to reduce the amount of cocoa from 2 tbsp to well, less! It's a nice treat to have the chocolate one and the rest of the day I do it with coffee. I'm going to try and make a mocha one tomorrow with 1 tbsp of cocoa and the strong decaf. I seriously wish I had bought mostly chocolate to begin with. I am now going to stop being a baby and suck it up (Literally) hehe
