Four hour hunger control my *kitten*!!
More like ONE hr. Please!!! yes, I do know better, but it was easy and convenient.
I cannot believe they claim four hour hunger- I would have been better and longer satisfied by eating a handful of M&M's.

Ok, rant over.

    know what you mean, by like the 3rd hour, my head feels like I've just been on a super fast merry go round. I have to eat something quick to get my blood sugars back up. I'm guessing because it's liquid the body burns it off faster than if it were say, a high fiber sandwich that had the same amount of calories in it..

    I tried the slim-fast diet for a while and it took a few days to get used to. The first couple of days I was starving but after a while it did keep me full. But then I found this site and realized that the best "diet" was the one that I would be able to do for the rest of my life and Drinking my food wasn't it!!LOL!!:smile:

    i don't usually eat a huge breakfast, i usually have oatmeal and cofee, and then a kashi bar for midday snack. and then i run for 30 minutes during my hour lunch break. i don't have time to eat, so i drink a slim-fast high protein shake and it tends to help me. and i'm not even starving. two hours later, i'll have a cup of coffee or a kashi bar. in the meantime i drink lots of water though, but i don't know if there's a difference between the slim fast optima and the high protein besides the high protein.
