These shakes are amazing! My partner and I have purchased the chocolate, strawberry, vanilla and espresso shakes from Chemist Warehouse in NZ. They all taste great. The espresso is my fav! perfect for breakfast :) and the best part.. THEY WORK!! I have lost nearly 10Kgs in a month and a half and that is with being naughty in-between and having the occasional takeaway meal. We do go for long walks most days, so paired with light exercise this program is (in my opinion) one of the best and more successful weight loss programs! :)

Well intried optfast last week and that was thick and yummy so i got 2 months supply of optislim ... and OMG the pumpkin soup is so sweet and the strawberry shake just a sweet as the soup . The fudge bar is thick and big not sure on rest havnt tried it yet .
Will try and dull down the sweet taste as im not a big sweet fan

I have a mixed box of flavours. I find them very nice. I have them with ice and water in a shaker. Product mixes well if done properly. I have lost 5kg in the first week ( i am not obese ) Now loosing 2 kg a week.

I have 4 shakes a day and a very small solid food snack. Very moderate excersize....dog walk 20 mins.

Highly recommend this product for a fast weight loss option. Dont know how long term will go yet.

Taste is subjective. I liked the taste, I could make this shake with low fat milk or low fat yoghurt. I added some ice to the food processor and I got a thick milkshake feel. Tasted great either way. It kept me feeling "Full". I expected to suffer a lot more. This shake pleasantly exceeded my expectation.

Being the coffee addict that I am, I chose the coffee flavoured shake. I have a shake for breakfast, steamed vegetables for lunch then my evening shake at around 5.00 pm. I also have either fruit or an option slim bar for a snack. First week and I've lost 4kg. Oh and I still allow myself 3 cups of coffee a day with a spoonful of sugar!!

I have been on Optifast for some years as a meal supplement. Not sure if on special but purchased Optislim at Chemist Warehouse, Fremantle for around $45 to $48 x 18 x 2 boxes (sadly). I liked the thought of supporting Australia
The taste is terrible- more artificial tasting than artificiality itself. Very synthetic smelling.

It is impossible to break down with the regular shakers (ball inside).. You are left with great globs. An awful, awful product and to think it's Australian!!! Why did Australia sell its wonderful Optifast to Nestle???

Adverse effects: apart from wanting to vomit I could only try 3 times
Product could possibly help weight loss if palatable.

I'm going in for WLS in a year. As I have a lot of nasty food intolerances, I decided I'd see if my body tolerated this VLCD system before deciding to go straight to designing my own pre-op plan.

I tried the banana and chocolate flavours and used almond milk.

I can say unequivocally they did a really, really bad job designing these shakes. They are not filling, they create a low-level nauseous feeling to simulate filling you up, and they taste so bad you're forced to drink slower so you don't 'eat' too fast for satiety to register.

After a...

I have only tried chocolate and i know a lot of people are saying they don't like the taste so here is what i do and it goes down very well.
I have not tried it with skim milk, i only ever drink almond milk so naturally i went straight to almond milk and it tastes quite nice, very similar to a dairy free milkshake.
PLUS the almond milk is 1kj per every 1gram, so you cut the calories again compared to skinny milk (if that is something important to you).
I use the brand "Blue Diamond Almonds" and it is my favourite by far. I normally use it fo...

Pretty nice taste. Texture is good, not too thick and not too thin. Probably would purchase again but only if it was on sale. Good range of flavours in the multi pack.

I bought the Coffee Shake on special Woolworths. It does the job as food subsituate & I shouldn't complain because they were so cheap but just the heads up, it takes like childrens breast milk formula

I can’t even stomach this shake. I’ve also tried the chocolate. Both of them made me vomit. The after taste is so foul and the smell of it. I even tried mixing it with frozen fruits- it didn’t do a thing. Don’t waste your money. It was the optislim- not the platinum one

Really enjoyed this flavour and mixed really well in a proper protein shaker with a ball. Haven't tried any other flavours just yet so can't really compare to others. Filed me up too.

so I have tried the banana, chocolate and vanilla... personally vanilla is my favourite. I wasn’t skeptic on trying shakes as meal replacement meals, I just wanted to try to lose weight, and what do you know? I actually did suprisingly. I originally weighed 120kgs when I started and lost 20kgs, but keeping in mind I had a sort of strict diet. My diet was basically a shake in the morning, lunch is whatever I felt like not too heavy obviously and then a shake for dinner. My exercise literally consisted of walking to work in the morning and then ...

There are better options out there that are actually palatable and get results. This stuff is disgusting and 'taste preference' isn't a good reason for them to get a refund. Funny that.

Trick is to use milk water lots of ice and an electric blender to make a milkshake.vanilla can be made to choc using cacao powder or add cinnamon,,be creative ,enjoy..

I have tried all of the flavours and what is really awesome is that I often add more water because it adds volume to my meal and helps with keeping fluids up. Also , you must remember not to use boiling water for the savoury flavours.

It took about 3 days to adjust to the taste but now it just tastes like a strawberry milkshake. I did try it with water 1st and was terrible. I'm on day 4 and have lost 3kg already. So far so good.

I tried this as a cheaper alternative to another brand and I have so many regrets. I bought 4 boxes on special, vanilla, chocolate, banana and strawberry and while they smell nice they taste like brine with added chemicals. not only do they taste revolting, but they don't mix in properly and there's a sludgy sediment in the bottom which puts me in mind of pond scum. I haven't used them long enough to know if they work, and I'm having nightmares about having to finish the rest of the boxes so I don't waste my money. I've been quite hungry on the...

Tried the chocolate flavoured version of this first and it was so disgusting that I had to pinch my nose to drink it so I couldn't smell it. But I stuck with it and lost 11kg in one week using 3 shakes per day as a complete meal replacement. Yes you do feel starving but that only lasts a couple of days until you adjust from a food diet to a liquid diet. My local Chemist Warehouse just started stocking the strawberry flavour and I am pleasantly surprised by how it tastes compared to the other flavours. It's so easy to drink and I don't have to h...
