Tried coffee flavoured Optislim shake as its cheaper than Optifast and an Australian product. While Optislim was more liquid and didn’t have the ‘shake’ consistency of Optifast shakes the worst thing was taste and aftertaste. It was so awful I couldn’t do more than 2 sips before throwing it out and the ‘chemical’ taste lingered on. I could have managed the ‘non shake’ consistency of the drink but the taste of Optislim is unbearable and I’ll be throwing all unused sachets in garbage.

Decided to give optislim a go. Have used optifast with success but decided to give this Aussie product a go and also for cheaper option. The coffee shakes are foul and way too sweet. Don't know if I can stomach this every day.

Tried coffee and chocolate and absolutely hated the shakes. Chomped on opti choc bars instead. The bar goes well with tea or coffee and can be eaten through the day.

Week one down, and 3.6 kilos down.. I have only tried the chocolate so far, blends well in a shaker bottle, tastes great and keeps me full until the next one! Would recommend :)

Hi, I have just started my first week. To my breakfast shake I blend frozen blueberries, a frozen banana, 1/2 cup of oats with skim milk. Keeps the hunger away. 3L water a day.
I'm 54 and this has helped me not feel bloated etc. Will update as time goes on.

I have used Optislim to help shred kgs a number of times The chocolate shake tastes great and genuinely replaces a meal without leaving you hungry. I still lose weight with these with only walking as my exercise. I have tried weighloss tablets but always felt nauseous. These shakes will have you dropping kilos and feeling great.

The perfect VLCD program to use prior to gastric sleeving and perfect to use if the weight starts creeping back years later. I have recently started Optislim again after having a gastric sleeve 4 years ago and finding my weight has gone up.

I have been using optislim platinum coffee and strawberry for 4 weeks now and I find mixing the sachet with one of the suggested fruits makes you fuller for longer. I have started a 86.7kg and have lost 6.5kg without exercise.

I'd strongly suggest working out for better results but so far I'm happy with how much I've lost so far.

Tried strawberry and coffee too watery and floury. Will try and return unopened boxes. The ones from a cheaper known supermarket were noticeably different and very nice and filling. I am having a gastric bypass in December so have to go on a very restricted diet prior to surgery but

Taste was good but not as good as others, affordable prices, and works well with a combined diet and exercise routine. Over time I couldn't stand to have the shake any longer but for a short period (month or so) it is great to kickstart your weightloss journey.

Only just started, at 79.0kg and 163m tall and need to be around 55 -60 kg, enjoying the taste so far, just left feeling thirsty, have had heaps of stress in my life and now it's time for me to focus on me. Super excited that there's alot of others here with great results. Fingers crossed for my results will keep you posted.
Doing optislim platinum - 3 shakes plus small grilled chicken and veggies (not sure if I should having 3 shakes or 2??) Plus exercise 6 days for 30min

Have only tried the chocolate shakes. I didn't mind the taste at all. You do lose weight if you stick to the diet with light exercise. Just needs a lot of determination and motivation. First week I did lose about 3 kgs. Unfortunately I personally don't constantly follow through with my diet. Overall good product.

Purchased both chocolate and vanilla in the platinum. The vanilla is like drinking syrup it's the last taste you need while trying to get healthy it goes against everything your trying to achieve. My 3 children couldn't bare how sweet it was. I've tried Isagenix and other shakes in this flavour and they have been delightful. The flavour needs reviewing.

I found the product to be effective and I lost 5 kilos in the first 9 days. In the end it wasn't suited for me for a long term/healthy eating lifestyle. I did feel full most of the time however didn't have much energy and felt quite lethargic and I knew it wasn't the healthiest way to live. I tried the Coffee and Strawberry only, personally I found the Coffee to be really nice and the Strawberry super sweet, kinda like Strawberry Quick. I ended up paying more to do Lite n Easy and have lost 10kgs in a longer amount of time (and will continue to stay on it) however I am a lot happier mentally and in terms of energy.

This is the third time I've used Optislim, fantastic results without excessive torture BUT total constipation despite using senna with it. You need so much senna not to block up that you need a nappy. Got it bad the second time, absolute torture with an hours warning third time, total blockage. Great product that needs greater alert re this or inclusion of laxative in formula.

Lost 3.5kg in first week with these shakes - don't feel hungry and no side effects etc. The shakes taste nice (bought vanilla and strawberry flavours) I'm having the shakes 2 times a day and light meal at night.
