Meal replacment shakes

Be ready to feel hungry all day.

Hi I was wondering what sort of results people have had after replacing 2 meals with shakes and a sensible meal for dinner? Sort of like Slim Fast but I am using whey precision protein (better protein to carb ratio)
This is a kick start diet I don't need people lecturing me on how its bad etc so answers from experience please

Thanks :-D

If you are still going to hit your recommended calories, then I don't see the point.

if you don't want people telling you how bad it is don't ask a question!!! also if you need a kick-start you are clearly not motivated enough to stick with cutting calories so maybe just come back when you are motivated enough.

I did all these diets and you know what they don't work LONG Term! just east at calorie deficit and you will lose weight! you don't even need to do exercise with it!

if its for an occasion go ahead and use replacement but you will find that the weight will come straight back.

I have been there and done that and now doing it properly and in 4 months I have lost 2 stone.

I replace one meal sometimes - cant imagine doing two though - sounds boring. I suggest using one that fills you up - which - is going to have more calories in it, which might not be what you are looking for... the one I use, after I add everything to it, has 220 calories. I put it in a Nutribullet with ice and it get's "whipped" so there's alot of air in it which makes me feel even fuller... I tried one that was 120 calories once and i was hungry an hour later and felt more like I wasted calories than anything :-(

I'm not fond of breakfast, so sometimes I'll take a shake instead. But using them as a regular meal replacement like they suggest always just made me MORE hungry...so I never actually lost much weight doing them. For me, at least, they were not a kick-start to anything other than disappointment because they made me really feel the struggle to lose weight. I've lost weight much quicker (and with zero effort) by just eating less calories. It helped me to eat less packaged food and more 'whole' foods. I work long hours and am quite busy, so to make sure I can actually do that and not rely on junk, I designate my Sundays to cooking and prepping food for the week. That way I can get healthy food just as quickly as 'fast food' during the week when I have zero time! Hope that helps!

Don't believe the hype. The whole weight loss thing is just a pick-up tactic shake likes to use.
