Hi Lea, I think everybody is different with this. I take mine at 8am, 12.30 and about 6pm cos I'm trying to change my body clock to normal meal times. That's working great for me but some people swear by leaving your first shake until you feel hungry and others have one closer to bedtime. There's no right answer to this one really!

PS I've just read your post again and realise you're just feeling shaky and starving after 8pm cos you're in the first week so, if I were you, I would stick to your current times and have lots of early nights until it settles down!![]()

Ah ok, so really for the time being I will feel a bit shaky anyway regardless of timing due to my body getting used to it? I can't wait to have completed the first week n my body to be used to it. I get the impressed its a lot easier from then on! Hope so, plan on doing this for 5 weeks straight and with the shakes, tiredness, tingling fingers and headaches I'm not sure I'd cope 5 weeks ha. Today is a little easier so far though. X
