    they are pumped full of perservatives and sugar. They are all gimmick and horrible for your health
  • special k bars are a fairly good on the go snack....but stick to real food, healthy food, and the weight will come off and stay off much easier!

    I tried to do the SlimFast program once - about 6 months ago. I was never so constipated in all my life. I don't know what's in those shakes, but they are pure, liquid evil.

    If you want to try the shake approach to weight loss try protein shakes as meal/snack replacements to control your caloric intake. Slimfast & special K shakes really arent worth the price, for what youre going to pay to use those for a month you can get enough of a GOOD protein powder to last 3, and the protein shakes have alot more vitamins and nutrients.

    (also have heard alot about diarrhea on slimfast... ick)

    I started using them for a couple weeks, until I really started thinking about the ingredients in them. I realized for the same amount of calories, I could have a healthy snack that would keep me full and not have all the sugar and additives. I would only recommend them if you need something quick to munch on every once in a while, but not for everyday use.
