Which meal replacement shake in your opinion is the best? I've been wanting to try herbalife but wasn't sure about. I was also interests in the lean shakes from gnc. Thanks!

slim fast and juice plus dont fill you up . they do work but your starving yourself so it will . herbal life is way more expensive but fills you0

I like/tolerate the taste of slim fast, but I have only ever had it as an emergency breakfast for when I woke up late. Also a few times when I've been too ill to cook (live alone and no takeaways will deliver to my house). *never* as a weight loss method.0

For me, none. I' rather eat my food than drink it.0

Am also in for preferring real food.0

I use Be young and isagenix shakes, they are both organic and have whey protein. I do eat real food but both of these shakes keep me full so I'm not starving by 10 am.0

I vote for food too!0

Premier Shakes from Costco. 30 grams of protein, low sugar... I agree with others in that I prefer "real" food. But once in a while these are handy to have on hand. $24. For 18 shakes.0

I make my own 3-4 times a week for breakfast. This morning, after my run, I made a shake with coconut water, soy protein, flax seed, fiber, fresh banana and mango and frozen pineapple. ~500 calories and wasn't hungry until lunch. And coconut water is like natural gatorade, replenishes after a workout. It's about 20oz, so it's pretty big. <shrug> I consider that real food. ;-)0

Food, food, food, food, fooooood!0

I know eating real food is best, but it is good to have meal replacement shake mix on hand. It helps me to take some with me on a trip on camping or vacationing, it keeps me from over eating on junk food when we are out. I have a meal replacement shake every morning before work, because i have no time to be cooking or eating breakfast. I do use slimfast, and atkins shakes, but my favorite is the Body by Vi, and i am trying something new called the ideal shape shake mix, i just ordered that, not tried it yet. But it is like the body by vi. I also add Protein Whey powder to my shakes, just adds more protein & makes it even more filling and satisfying.0

I make my own smoothies for breakfast and they keep me full until lunch. I use 2 cups of baby kale/ spinach mix, whey protein powder (unflavored), fruit (fresh or frozen) and either almond milk or water or coffee.0

One of the problems with meal replacement shakes (and liquid calories in general), is that your body doesn't recognize the intake of nutrient dense food, nor any 'food' like substance - and therefore doesn't produce Leptin (hormone that tells your body you are full)- which fails satiate appetite leading many to over consume for the day.0
-
I guess it's psychological because when I drink meal replacement shakes, my mind tells my body that I haven't eaten. I have to have real food. That's why I have slim fast powder and lean shakes in my cupboard slightly used...If I'm running late, I keep greek yogurt on hand for a quick meal.0

I am a fan of Muscle Milk, It's essentially cheap at WalMart or online, it helps keep me feeling full between meals, or just as a breakfast replacement in a pinch. Doesn't taste half bad either.0

I use My Protein Impact Diet Whey.....they are great and really filling0
-
While food is obviously a good option - If you are going to replace a meal with a shake, I would go with IdealShape Meal Replacement Shakes. I actually drink these for breakfast (I'm not a fan of eating when I wake up but I know it's essential!). They actually taste good. You just mix them with water and it fills you up. I asked a nutritionist I work with about these shakes and she said they are actualy great! (: Best of luck!!0
