by: Anonymous

I fasted for 5 days with using slimfast and barely lost anything. I know that your metabolism slows down when you fast, so I think this played a part in my low weight loss. I had a shake for breakfast, lunch, dinner and sometimes as a middle of the night snack, and this is where I think I messed up. I exercised to with speed walking on the treadmil but only for 20 minutes and only 3 out of the 5 days. So I think slimfast is great for fasting, if your stomach hurts from hunger it cures that after drinking a shake. But you need to exercise lightly everyday and not drink the shakes like water because they are filled with calories and sweeteners. Good Luck!

I love slim fast vanilla mix in a can. It's Sooooo delicious, it reminds me of smelling vanilla cake and the taste, its out of this world, it's so creamy and smooth, and the vanilla taste its Soooooo delicious, it's the Best. Please slim fast don't ever change your mix.

it may be just me, but my gums bleed when i drink slimfast. it does not work for me.
i fast three days a week and what helps me is drinking kefir (turkish yoghurt); a couple of swigs does it. or a swig of olivw oil.
i know my experience with slimfast seems hard to believe, but it is true.
my own opinion is that you should avoid any and all processed foods when you are fasting. and slimfast is clearly a super duper processed food.

by: Joeleena

I think the nutrients are fine in slim fast but you will also have all the artificial sweeteners. Have you thought about making your own healthy shakes? I can guarentee they are filling. All you need is a blender, 1 small frozen banana, some frozen cherries, a little fresh spinach and water. You could also add a little bit of low fat yogurt. Add just enough water for the consistency that you desire. They are actually delicious and you can experiment with different fruits and veggies but the frozen banana is important to give it that thick, cold, milkshake consistency. You could use fresh fruits but i just find the frozen ones so much more convenient. Well, i hope this helps, good luck on your journey.

I've tried slim-fast and it tastes good but it doesn't fill me up really well. I usually feel more hungry after drinking it but that's just my experience. The shakes are pretty good for nutrients, though.
