SlimFast Meal Replacement Powder, Original French Vanilla, Weight Loss Shake Mix, 10g of Protein, 14 Servings

I have been using Slim Fast powder for years. I replaced cows milk with soy milk when I reached my mid 50's and it still taste great. Plus still leaves me feeling full. When I'm adding fresh or frozen fruit I use a blender. When I'm not, a shaker blender bottle works perfectly. I always add a 8oz yogurt when making my smoothies. Sometimes I add PeanutButter. A shaker blender bottle works just as good when adding yogurt. Besides taking a daily multivitamin Slimfast gives me added vitamins.Reasons I use it and When; If I need to lose weight, to help maintain a healthy weight, if it's too hot a day to really eat this is a great healthy alternative, In a rush to get out of the house, Too busy to fix something to eat. When my kids were babies, then toddlers then pre-school age it was a way to make sure I got something healthy into me during the day instead of grabbing junk food, even trying to eat fruit during those days didn't help because even fruit took too long to eat. Make up a healthy Slimfast shake and problem solved no muss no fuss. Supper was regular food. I use it as weight loss helper for losing 10, 20 lbs so I can get back to what is a healthy weight for me, so I can't review how it would help if one needed to lose more. Suggestion; If you have health issues check with your doctor before using this for weight loss. Slimfast is a healthy food item but just make sure it's ok for you .

Great value for an iconic brand. After reading some of the reviews that mention the shake can be clumpy, I wanted to share that if you use a mini blender to make the shake, it comes out smooth!Before blending, I also found that pouring the milk half way in the mini blender cup and then adding the powder and topping off with more milk helps avoid clumping at the bottom.

Quick satisfying meal or as a snack. My elderly parents also like it at times as it settles their tummies when needed.

About 6 months ago, I found a workout class I absolutely love- kickboxing. Having something I enjoyed so much encouraged me to make other better choices as well. I dropped soda, I eat way better, and I can feel myself getting healthier. The only problem was that my weight didn't change. I would lose a little then gain it right back, lose it again, gain it again, etc. I knew it was because I was eating too many calories. They were so difficult to count accurately without eating only prepackaged junk with nutrition labels. I was rarely even getting close to my 1200 calorie goal each day.So I knew I had to do something! I found slimfast on Amazon with the high protein and it's been working like a charm. I've done it for less than a week and each morning, my weight drops just a hair more. After less than a week, I am down about two pounds.The thing is, I don't follow the Slim Fast plan. I replace breakfast on workout days and then I don't really have to worry about overeating at lunch or dinner because I have about 750 Calories each meal left. If I follow Slim fasts recommendations, I don't have enough energy for kickboxing. On non workout days, I eat my normal Special K breakfast sandwich then have two shakes throughout the day and a regular dinner. I use a phone app to keep my Calories on track. It's so much easier with small controlled replacement meals! I still get to eat out but I am always right at my calorie goal. I could never pull this off before.Tip: buy powdered milk and mix it with your slimfast in a blender bottle. When you are ready for it, all you have to do is add 8 oz of water. It's nearly as convenient as the bottles but a little cheaper.The only bad thing is the price of this product. And I think slimfast has switched to a different product but I haven't tried it yet. I don't think this is still being produced.

This milk chocolate high protein powder is highly recommended. It tastes great. I mix mine with unsweetened almond milk which only has 30 calories. Sometimes I also add frozen fruit or peanut butter to mix things up a bit. I really enjoy slim fast shakes and have lost 13lbs in 1 month using them for breakfast and lunch. I have to be honest though...it does NOT keep my full for 4 hours. I'm always hungry 2 1/2 to 3 hours later. I will have a snack which will hold me over but don't think you can just drink this every 4 hours and it will work like the commercial lol. You have to be sure to have healthy snacks throughout the day and to not overeat at dinner time. This milk chocolate version is the best I've tasted.

Slim Fast is an old standby for a nutritional supplement for me, but I really wish they would update the original formula. It's not filling at all unless you mix it with whole or 2% milk, which kind of defeats the purpose. That being said, it's a good quick resolution when I run out of my usual supplement powder, and it blends well with both soy and almond milk.

Slim-Fast Vanilla PowderI love this product. I lost a lot of weight using this for breakfast and lunch and small microwave meal at night (and exercise). They are quite emphatic about one point. This product does not and will not give you 100% of your daily nutritional needs. Some things you need are simply not in there. You need to have real food in your diet also. I use both the regular powder and the high protein powder.The vanilla flavor is a nice base to build on. For breakfast I often add apricots, strawberries or even chocolate. I also add flax seed for fiber and omega-3. The directions say to mix it with skim milk, but I replace some of the milk with non-fat plain yogurt. It's a dream.
