    I buy Naturade Total Soy from Sam's club. Flavor is just ok. I mix it with a more expensive shake from a Herbalife retailer. THe mix is fine with skim milk and some frozen fruit to make a smoothie.

    shakes can be rough on the stomach if it's already empty...you do get used to it though.
    When I still ate "breakfast" I would use my blender and add oats and a bit of fruit to the protein shake, water only, no milk. It's obviously more substantial and definitely helped with the stomach.

    I get tummy aches from slim fast as well :-(

    I now either make smoothies with 1 cup orange juice, 1 cup strawberries, 1/2 banana or I use carnation instant breakfast. They are both really good...

    The best is packed with vitamins. It's from Metagenics. It's Ultra meal 360. I like vanilla. It's really good and you can have it twice a day. My nutritionalist supplies it for me, but I know you can buy it online. I've lost 37 lbs. If you get a tmmy ache try adding 1 Tablespoon of Endefen to it.
    Hope this helps....best of luck.

    I add a scoop of protein (Isobolic - I am in Canada btw) to almond milk, with a tbls of ground flax seed and some fish oil... + a banana and a scoop of Greens+... if I have any fruit, toss it in. Sometimes, instead of the protein I'll put a spoonful of almond butter. Basically, one trip to a health/supplements store where I explained that I needed a QUICK high protein breakfast + fruit and almond milk. It works out to about 300 calories.

    Other option, if you don't want to worry about protein powder etc:

    Green Monster Smoothie

    Any fruit you like, but an example:
    1 banana, roughly chopped
    4 or 5 strawberries
    1/2 cup fresh blueberries
    1 small peach, peeled and roughly chopped
    1 heaping cup (or more) fresh spinach leaves, thoroughly rinsed
    splash vanilla soy milk (or almond milk/water/real milk)
    1 tablespoon Greek yogurt
    2 teaspoons honey
    1/2 cup crushed ice

    Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Serve immediately.
    *this recipe makes a very large smoothie- two could easily share.

    Other easy/quick breaky - boil eggs and grab and go!
    Good luck!

    I buy the EAS AdvantEdge ones. High in protein and low in carbs. I also buy the Adkins ones. They have more calories then the EAS and still only 1 or 2 carbs per serving. I am doing the Adkins pretty much and have lost 14 in 6 weeks. It took my body a good month to kick in that I would be eating more then 1 meal aday. I have a metabolism disorder and has taken me a few extra weeks to kick start it.

    In response to above message - I have also tasted EAS (not a shake but a powder you add water etc to) and it is yummy too!

    Hi! I've tried shakes before and I would have stuck to them but money was an issue. Go to dietdirect.com. There chocolate shakes are the best (my opinion). You can buy with or without aspartame. "WonderSlim meal replacement shakes110 calories."

    dont know about slim fast..seems expensive.

    my wife uses gold standar whey casein..she mixes fruits with soy milk in the powder and takes that with her to work..she says it keeps her full. and its cheaper than buying premade slim fasts..like a tub of that is 30 bucks or something..and makes like 50 shakes.

    That's my breakfast everyday. I love them!!! They are super convenient and if you buy a high quality one then you will be getting good nutrition in your body fast.
    I use the Visalus shake mix with almond milk and sometimes I'll blend it blueberries.
