opti vs protein shakes

I start opti on Saturday.  Today I tried a chocolate premier protein shake... I didn't mind it at all.  Some people are telling me the opti is better than the protein shake? Input please?  Maybe a comparison of opti to something??

The preop diet is optifast specifically to prepare your body ( specifically liver ) and has 225 calories per shake which after 4 shakes equals 900 calories

Premiere protein shakes only contain 160 calories per shake and have a higher percentage of protein ( which is important for healing post op) If you were tomhave 4 premiere protein shakes your caloric intake would only be 640 calories...insane

That's it in a nutshell

Sorry I should have been more specific I meant taste a comparison in taste.  What does opti taste like?  Also that I tried the protein shake and like it  is it anything like the opti?

I liked Optifast way better than Premier.  Can't really compare to anything as it was the best protein shake I ever had and I have tried many.

Ok thanks.... i thought opti was a meal replacement not a protein shake per say?  I know the premier shake is a protein shake

It is a meal replacement but still just like most protein shakes as far as texture and taste go.  I just found it tasted better than any of the other shakes I ever had.

I tasted Premier and am on Opti now and I like both. Especially chocolate.

Thanks Kayakgirl!  I liked  chocolate premier shake  too so I guess I have a chance at liking the opti then LOL  how bad is the vanilla?
