Thank you.
have 7 syrups coming from low carb grocery tomorrow.
i don't drink coffee so that flavoring won't work for me.
No stomach issues yet, just very strange dry throat cough. I am drink tons of water also.
head hunger is very real and more of a demon then I thought.

Hang in there....I am currently in week 2 of 3 on Opti. It certainly is challenging, and finding syrups/flavors to keep a good variety has really helped me. The head hunger is outrageous at times, and is a huge eye opener!! You will do great, keep up the good work, and wishing you all the best on this last challenging leg before surgery.

You can also use extracts (from the baking aisle) to flavour it. I liked banana, orange & lemon. Or, if you have vanilla but prefer chocolate, you can add baking cocoa to the vanilla and, voila-chocolate! :)
