Total Solution Wowzers!

So, am on my first day and am just mid my first shake. Went for chocolate, wow was that a mistake !! Does everything taste this bad? I have added a teaspoon of diuted coffee and I can just about force it down.
Please tell me it does get better than this?!

it does get a lot better yes, I was not a fan of the chocolate shake at all but as time has gone on I have got used to it and quite enjoy it now. I think everything tastes a bit bland for a few weeks but then all of a sudden it becomes nice and you will find it has more and more flavour (probably because you have forgotten what real food tastes like ha ha) but yes, rest assured you will enjoy the packs very soon........

Give it a couple of days and your tastebuds will change. I remember my first week and I thought the shakes were flavourless, but as the days went on they started to taste nicer and sweeter and now I love them.

I like all the shakes except chocolate, I think it tastes of mould lol!! Bit of coffee helps mask the taste a bit.... :0)

Of all the shakes to start with!!!!!! It's the worst! Good luck with your journey, u will get used to the taste!
I like the choc one hot with a spoon of coffee and a sweetener!

Thanks guys! From having a read through the forum the consensus seems to be that choc is the worst, maybe should have had a good read first.
So, have just moved onto lunch, thai chicken. Although the taste was ok, I added chilli flakes and a kaffir lime leaf, this made it *taste* pretty good. The main issue was the texture. Im finding things pretty 'gluey' Im guessing thats so that it feels as though it fills you up, but tbh it just kinda sat in my thoat and made me feel a bit sick. Got through just over half and could eat no more of it. Am really frustrated at myself cos I know that you really have to eat the whole pack.
I have also just had about a 1/4 of the choc orange bar, DELISH!! Am looking forward to the rest for dinner.
The issue is now tho that I am about 100 cals down today as I couldnt finish the soup. What is the best thing to do??

Maybe i'm strange but i don't mind the chocolate lol. Like everyone else has said, your taste will change so don't be too put off with them right now.
Because you've only eaten half your soup, i'd prob have another shake. It's really important you have all 3 Exante products a day for all the nutrients etc.
Good luck on your journey x

Why don't you try mixing them with more water? I make 2 mugs of soup out of each pack & make 1/2 packs of shakes up with 350-400ml water for each half-I think it makes them taste much less creamy!!

Am I the only weirdo that likes the choc shake here?!! I love it! I went a couple of weeks in the past of having 3 choc shakes a day

I like mine made with 350ml ice cold water and a spoonful of coffee, so yummy.
