    I'm not a fan of SlimFast strawberry either, but for some reason I don't mind the Tesco UltraSlim version! But Slimfast Cafe Latte is lovely! I would say to you if you're just starting, try all flavours in the small individual cartons first before you buy the big tins. Also, try mixing up...

    Exercise every day?

    I think that alot of people go wrong by exercising and looking purely at weight loss, and not measuring themselves. Two people may have same height, same weight but since 1lb of fat has a greater mass, than 1lb of muscle you'll find someone with a higher body fat percentage would be larger.
