    Outcome of a calorie deficit?

    Weight loss.

    Paying for pre-made crappy shakes aren't necessary. Maintain a deficit and eat delicious foods.

    Slim fast won't teach you anything about eating properly to maintain your weight loss. So, if you want to yo-yo diet, go for it.

    If you want to have a shake twice a day, at least make it a protein shake - slim fast are full of sugar, without the benefit of much protein at all.

    Why do you need the slim fast on the 5:2 diet. My husband and I are eating the 5:2 way and we don't have any false foods these shake things. You can eat good normal foods on the fast days just stick to 600 cals for men and 500 for women. Then I eat my calculated MFP calories the other days.
