    For me the attraction of the ready made shakes would be not having to make potentially bad choices about what to eat, no cooking and no measuring. These things can be especially hard first thing in the morning which is why I have the same thing every day for breakfast except for 2 days a month when we go out for brunch. Knowing I’ve started the day off great with my goals in mind makes the rest of the day go better. The app actually encourages this by having a “swipe right” to add yesterday’s breakfast feature. I get enough variety at lunch and dinner so I don’t get bored. Whatever you choose I think establishing some kind of routine that works for you will help you succeed. Consistency is key.

    Good luck! Just be mindful of learning healthy habits too - a shake isn't the ultimate solution to weight loss. Most find themselves gaining weight (sometimes even worse than before) because they didn't develop healthy eating habits or learn about nutrition.

    I've tried doing shakes and healthy smoothies. They just don't fill me up enough. They're delcious, but I still end up eating after drinking one.

    :) Yeah, it's mostly a mental thing why people can't maintain weight loss and it's generally associated with the type of food people eat, and we know what the vast majority eat and have a hard time controlling. By going meal replacement for a year your still going to have to battle the same situation you have now while not learning a thing about what foods facilitate better satiety, kind of a waste of time imo. Good luck, I have a feeling your going to need it. :#

    Well...
    I tried the meal replacement and it's going fine. I have added fiber to fill me up a bit more and have lost 8 lbs this past month. Let's see how I can continue. It's not easy but it works. I have to create a meal every day to help me balance my day with either two meal replacement or one a day. Have to get creative here.
