    Welcome to MFP! Lots of good info on these forums. May we ask why you chose SlimFast?

    I need something “easy to hand” to help me get used to smaller portions. With slim fast I only have to think about the one healthy meal

    The only thinking about 1 healthy meal is why I’m doing slimfast. I lost a good chunk of weight just by proper eating and working out but got busy and tired of planning out meals so I turned to slimfast to help reach my goals.

    I’m also doing this diet, although using a Superdrug shake instead, I only get slim fast on an offer.

    Hi OP!
    I've been on Slim Fast for almost three weeks now! Although I have fluctuated between 1 and 2 shakes a day, I'm currently drinking 2 shakes a day plus another meal. I've lost almost 5kg so far.
    How's it going for you?

    Wow FH thats great that your losing weight on Slim Fast! I have never tried that diet before but would try it once in a while 4 a meal replacement when i am on the run! Whats your favorite flavor? I am a big chocolate or coffee flavor fan! does it give you enough protein in the shake 2 keep you full between meals or do u need 2 snack ? I am interested in finding out! Thanks 4 everyones input on this subject.

    Hi April! I love the cookies and cream flavour! In the first week, I literally tried all the flavours and tried the bars (which were awful).

    Snacking really depends on what I eat for my main meal - I'll have the slim fast for breakfast and dinner along with coffee/red bull between my breakfast and lunch.

    If I eat something which is just protein-based like chicken/fish, I might eat some fruit or a protein bar in between meals or have juice/something sweet with lunch. If I'm eating something more balanced with significant carbs like rice/pasta then I might not snack at all. If I do then usual snacks would be cheese, berries or jelly, or if it is warm then an ice lolly/sorbet.
