Slim Fast Shakes

Pros: Good if you're in a hurry
Cons: Makes promises it can't deliver

Some mornings I am in too much of a hurry to eat breakfast. Normally, I'll sit down with the kids and have a bowl of Puffed Rice and skim milk and half a banana, but some mornings I just cannot motivate myself to get up, and the hubby does the kid duty....

Pros: Tastes just like a regular milk-shake
Cons: It can cause an upset stomach in some people

Slim-Fast shakes are a great meal replacement; just as the advertisement states: "Just replace one meal a day with a delicious Slim-Fast Shake and eat sensibly the rest of the day." The only way to drink this shake is to drink it very, very cold. It...

Pros: It is a good supplement if your are simply maintaining your target weight
Cons: This taste is unpleasant

I have been dieting for a month now and have had mixed results. At first, I tried doing it the way the experts say and cut back, not cut out. For the last two weeks I decided to do away with that theory and start over. The first thing I did was give all...

Pros: Tastes good
Cons: cost and lack of benefits

I tried Slim Fast because I needed to lose some weight in order to have a surgery. I was told by my doctor to try it because he had seen wonderful results with it. So, I did, I went out and bought it.

I followed it to the tee, I have...

Pros: Rigid, inflexible weight loss program
Cons: not many flavors, can taste chalky

Slim Fast is not for everyone. It is really designed for people who have control problems and who like structure. I am an organized person who loves firm, rigid order to some aspects of my life. When it comes to food, tell me what to eat, how often and...

Pros: Quick 'n Easy and Relatively Tasty
Cons: Is no substitute for wholesome well balance menu based on personal caloric and nutrient needs!

My experience with Slim Fast is "so-so". When my head is screwed on straight, and I have the proper frame of mind, any weight management program works for me.

The Slim Fast Shakes are, in my opinion, tasty when blended into a frothy shake...

Pros: Cheap, convenient, contains vitamins
Cons: variety of flavors, but I can only drink the chocolate

I like Slim Fast for breakfast. Since I have 4 children and not a lot of time in the mornings, it is a cheap and quick breakfast. I drink one every morning around 7:00 am, it holds be till about 1:00pm. I have been drinking them for a while. I haven't...

Pros: The vitamins and nutrients
Cons: I started getting a little bored with the shakes and this diet plan.

I started using Slim Fast a few years back while trying to lose a few pounds to fit into an adorable dress I was determined to wear to a wedding. I'd have a "Ready-to-Drink" shake at breakfast and than a full nutritional lunch, and than...

Pros: tastes great, easy to follow
Cons: short term weight loss

After having my first child, I took a long look at myself and decided that it was time to take off those extra pounds. I knew that I would need to see quick results to keep me motivated, and I chose Slim Fast shakes as part of my gameplan. At the price...

Pros: fast, no preparation, convenient
Cons: don't get to eat and taste food for that meal

Slim fast is a good meal replacement if you are busy. I have a two year old and do not have time for breakfast so I drink a shake while I drive to work. If I drink a shake for lunch also, then I am famished by dinner and tend to overeat or eat the wrong...

Pros: Healthy
Cons: None if you like it

I have been drinking Slim Fast for more than three years. I'm really not doing it to lose weight but because it is an easy meal. I use to cook a lot when my husband was here but now that I am alone I don't like to cook. I drink Slim Fast for one meal a...

Pros: nutritional value
Cons: expensive way to deprive yourself

I recently tried vanilla slim-fast shakes. They weren't as tasty as a milkshake, but I didn't expect them to be. Still, they weren't disgusting or hard to get down.

The problem here is, one of these shakes is supposed to be an entire meal. You...

Pros: healthy, tasty
Cons: not ice cream

It's a shake in a can. No doubt about it. It's more than could be expected. Drink a Slim Fast as a shake when you're on a diet or as a good drink when you're tired of soda. Consider if you're going to have something with it, would it be something you'd...

Pros: It'll get you by in a real pinch, but not ideal.
Cons: Expensive, Can taste gross, Not healthy.

When puberty hit, so did weight gain. What most teenage girls don't know (and what I also didn't know) is that this is a normal response their body goes through. Unfortunately, this "normal" physical symptom of growing up causes drops in...

Pros: Great quick meal replacement.
Cons: Doesn't satisfy hunger necessary for weight loss.

I tried this product, like everyone else, to lose weight. I like the taste of the chocolate. The strawberry was okay. The vanilla was so sweet, I couldn't hardly drink it.
I believe the nutritional value of the drink is good. Although the...
