SlimFast High Protein Smoothie Mix, Creamy Chocolate, 12 Serving Container

This is my first time trying any of the SlimFast products. I chose the Creamy Chocolate. With a glass (8 ounces) of low fat milk you get 20 grams of protein. That is 40 percent of your daily recommended allowance for protein. I opened the container and could immediately smell the chocolate. Inside is the scoop provided for measuring (equal to one quarter cup). I have used this for breakfast for several days now. I tried it in skim milk and lite vanilla soymilk. Both were great tasting. I really didn't think this would last for a meal replacement, but it did. I was not hungry until lunch time. The protein is what keeps you full. Plus I love the added vitamins. You can stir or shake, but I recommend shaking or putting in a blender to dissolve all the powder equally. If you want a thicker shake, just combine one half cup of ice along with the product and the milk. I loved the taste and am very happy that I now have a high protein breakfast available without having to cook.

I like the flavor and versatility of this chocolate smoothie mix from Slimfast. I can quickly stir in one scoop into a glass of milk for a quick breakfast or lunch. Or when I have more time I like to use my smoothie blender and add one scoop of the powder to 8 ounces of milk, about three sticks of ice, and throw in half a banana or some berries if I have them on hand. Blending in pulses for about 30 seconds results in a thick, creamy ice cold smoothie with a rich chocolate taste and full of vitamins, fiber, and protein. Very little aftertaste, and I'm happy to report that it does keep me from feeling hungry for 4 hours as claimed. Having the scoop included in the canister is convenient, and this product is a good value since I can make 12 smoothies per container.

As with most products, contents contain the amount in weight stated, not how empty or full the package appears. This SlimFast is 11.01 oz in weight and contains one small portion scoop. The contents will make 12 servings, give or take a bit depending on how rich you like to make it. People use various milks and so some folks might use less and others more per serving. SlimFast has based their servings and nutrition information with this product based up using 8oz (one cup) of fat free milk. I found this item to be very delicious and with that said, I used what I had on hand which was 2% milk. To me, the taste was like an excellent chocolate milk and I will certainly be purchasing this product over and over again. It does in fact keep me hunger free for more than 4 hours. You may view my video, I mixed 1 cup of 2% milk, 1 scoop of the SlimFast Smoothie, and a few small ice cubes into a blender and blended only for a few seconds. Keep in mind, this IS an 'Advanced Nutrition' and has a whopping 20 grams of Protein! The SlimFast Advanced Nutrition Smoothie HIGH PROTEIN with Antioxidants, also has 5 grams of fiber and 24 vitamins and minerals. In addition it is Gluten Free. When using according to directions, you will get 12 servings from this container. At first, this item may seem a bit pricey but if you are replacing one meal per day with this smoothie, you are getting 12 days of product. Not bad for much more than a $1 a day. Even if using twice a day, still not bad at $2 a day for 6 days. I always like to do the math. :) You may want to review the SlimFast clinically proven diet plan as it really is a simple plan that works. I'm looking forward to the vanilla too.

Though I tried SlimFast years ago, it never worked as well before. The Advanced Nutrition Smoothie recipe has turned off the normal hunger in my stomach so well it makes me want to wait until later on for a meal. Things I learned in the past are not to think about wanting to chew food, and to believe the shake will make me full for many meals like having soup or a milkshake. This new recipe of SlimFast made it easier to ignore wanting to bite into some delicious type of favorite food because it contains ingredients that really seem to fill my stomach. My stomach stays feeling satisfactorily full for the four hours SlimFast guarantees on the label. It tastes great simply mixed with a spoon, wonderful in coffee, and very good as a shaken, frozen smoothie. This advanced kind of SlimFast also seems to work better than generic brands I have tried. Years ago when I stayed almost strictly on a liquid SlimFast diet for three to four weeks, I substituted a few meat only or soup only meals for several of the SlimFast meals. I slimmed down and lost 12-15 lbs. of weight easily.

I surprisingly liked this and I've already gone to buy my back up. This one only has enough servings for one week of shakes if you're following the slimfast diet rules of 2 shakes a day and a regular supper. The first time I used this I used skim milk . The shake was thick and creamy and tasted great. Again surprising. I was expecting it to be gross and have to choke it down like all the other protein powders I've tried. I attempted to cut the carbs and just mix this with water and ice in a blender but it wAsnt as good. I also tried adding instant espresso and that was ok. So I'm floating in the middle now and I'm going to try almond milk next. I did half way follow the rules of the slimfast diet and I lost 2 pounds in a week. It's nice seeing that number drop and still have chocolate! It did curb my hunger for almost 4 hours just not quite. I'm a heavy person and my stomach is crazy due to emotional eating and years of over eating. This shake was gentle in my tummy and I've had no adverse reactions. I did receive this item in exchange for an honest review but these opinions are my own.

SlimFast Advanced Nutrition Smoothie packs 20 g of protein in an 8 oz serving! This was the first time I tried the powdered version of SlimFast product and found it better tasting than their ready to drink shakes. I mixed a scoop of smoothie powder with 8 oz of 2% milk and the taste was smooth and rich, just like a high end chocolate milk. The product promises to keep the hunger away for 4 hours but I felt full for over 6 hours. On the days I had the smoothie for breakfast I was not hungry at lunch so I would have a small snack when I came from work and a small dinner. I feel better, my appetite is suppressed and after two weeks of just replacing my breakfast with the smoothie I have lost 2 pounds. One package makes about 12 servings if you use the scoop measure included for 8 oz of milk.

OK folks if you have ever tried these diet drinks you know the're not that good, they leave an after taste and are kinda chalky believe me my wife and I have tried a lot of these so called shakes. The SlimFast advanced nutrition smoothie is not a drink like you've had before it is a high protein high fiber and has 24 vitamins and also with antioxidants It has a smooth texture and creamy taste this is truly a good meal replacement smoothie it does have a slight after taste but it's better than any other meal replacement drink I've tried. we like the creamy chocolate flavor give it a try I think you will be pleased.

I chose to try the SlimFast Advanced Nutrition Smoothie Creamy Chocolate Meal Replacement Shake and was pleasantly surprised. I wanted to try a meal replacement that was easy, low calorie and tasted good. I have a nutriblast blender at home and thought I would try the SlimFast. The directions say to add 1 scoop of the SlimFast powder to a cup of fat free milk along with a cup of ice and blend. I am not a big milk fan so I tried using unsweetened almond milk, which worked out fine. I found that by using a full cup of ice the drink was too thick and I had to add a little more milk to make it drinkable through a straw. I have also tried adding 1/2 almond milk and 1/2 water and didn't notice much of a difference in the taste. The best thing I tried was adding a tablespoon of peanut butter powder to it and I have to say the taste was fantastic. There are 12g of protein in the SlimFast itself and 20g if you add the milk and just under 200 calories (a little more if you add the PB powder). This was much more protein than in a fruit and veggie shake and it actually did keep me full until just before lunch. I have taken to eating a few nuts or another SlimFast snack product in between and I find that I am completely satisfied until my next meal. There are also numerous antioxidants in the product as well as it is gluten free. The only downside to the product that I could find was that it contained sucralose as a sweetener, which I am not too thrilled about. It would be nice if they could use a more natural sweetener. I've only been using the product for less than a week and have not used it for lunch. I would think the pre-made SlimFast product would make it easier to drink for lunch. I chose the product more as a low calorie, fast and easy meal to help me maintain my weight rather than as a program to lose weight but I would expect that if I was using it to replace 2 meals a day as intended, I cannot imagine that I would not see weight come off. I would recommend this product to others.

I can't say that I care to much for this SlimFast Advanced nutrition meal replacement shake mix. The directions say to combine one scoop of the powder(1/4 cup) with 8 fl. oz. of fat free milk. This will then make a shake that has 190 calories and 35 calories from fat. I am not a fan of fat free milk, I use 2% so obviously this will make a difference in the amount of calories. I have made this with the 2% milk and I have made this with Almond/Coconut milk adding 1/2 cup of crushed ice and using the cup setting that I have on my blender to make an individual serving. Either way I found the end result to have a chalky flavor. I thought by using a milk with a little more fat would make it taste better but in my opinion it didn't. This shake mix is gluten free but be aware that it does contain milk and soy if those are an issue. The shake mix has 20g of protein, 24 vitamins & minerals with antioxidants. This one is called the Creamy chocolate, it didn't seem creamy in consistency to me, probably because it contains cocoa. I much rather prefer the SlimFast premade shakes over the powder form.

I really wanted to like this product. I need to lose some weight . The premixed products seem so wasteful . I had tried slimfast powder years ago before the premixed and stopped using it because it was so had to mix up and short of putting it in a blender it was never fully mixed up . I had hoped that 20 + years had made a huge difference. However there was no difference . The product still does not mix well . I have tried several different ways of mixing it up . Unless I used the blender it was not a good mix. My hope was to take this to work and mix it with milk at work . That did not work out . I tried mixing it the night before , left it in the fridge and it was still not mixing well and had become as thick as pudding. For me this is not a good choice. IF you are going to be at home and have a blender handy ..by all means add an ice cube as suggested and it is a great smoothie .
