Hi all I was wondering if anyone uses slim fast equivalents such as tesco or wilkinsons and if so do these work just as well?
Whats the average weight loss per week with slim fast as im 14st 6 and need to lose around 4 stone. Im not looking at slim fast for long term but need a good kick up the bum to start me off.
Thanks in advance
Sarah

Breakfast- U S shake
About 10.30 i'll have snack, dairylee dunker(122 cals).
Lunch- U S shake
Dinner- 600 cal meal, usually something made from scratch with plenty of vegtables.
Snack- cup a soup (100cals) and 2 bbq snack a jacks (80cals).
Eating like this does satisfy me, i thinks its because i never really get hungry, its really suprised me how much these shakes fill you up! Xx

Hey, I'm just curious to know, do the Tesco ones (or any other brands) have the same yucky aftertaste as Slimfast? I LOVE the slimfast shakes but within 5 minutes of drinking them I get this awful, metallic aftertaste....bleurghhh! I actually thought I'd cut my mouth somewhere and was tasting blood, not at all appetizing! It also comes if I sip my shake slowly, so I find myself having to down them instead

I just ordered some Slim Fast shakes and bars and snacks while they are on offer at more than half off the price but am tempted by the cheaper ones after that! I really like all the Slim Fast food that I have tried so far.
