During the first week of Slim Fast, you will probably drop 2-3 pounds. Slim Fast greatly limits the number of calories consumed each day, so expect a dramatic weight loss. This diet combines eating their products with making your own healthy meals, so if you want some flexibility, Slim Fast is perfect. You can also just pick Slim Fast products up at your local grocery store for a relatively low price.

The Bad

Selection

Slim Fast only offers bars and shakes to dieters. Their limited selection can grow old very quickly. While you might be able to keep up with replacing one meal with a Slim Fast product for a while, the small selection can get old fast. TBC has a few concerns with Slim Fast:

The diet may not provide adequate calories or nutrition
There is no health coach or outside support
There are only 3 types of "meals" to choose from

The Bottom Line

Slim Fast is great for people who want to do just that - lose a few pounds quickly. Dieters do not consume very many calories on Slim Fast, so it's okay for a few days, but not long-term. However, if you want to replace a meal or snacks with Slim Fast products, that seems to be more sustainable.

Slim-Fast has always been a staple. Not just for dieting but for maintaining a healthy balance. The Slim-Fast product line is health, nutrition, and common sense all rolled up into one. It has helped me stay on the right health path and can't think of a better meal replacement.

Being a broke college student, it's hard planning meals when I have such limited time and resources. I heard about slim-fast from a friend and it has worked great! I don't have to worry about planning meals because it does all that for me.

I have Slim-Fast shakes in the morning when I have a busy day and don't have time to make breakfast. It's filling and delicious. I love carrying the Keto Slim Fast treats in my purse for a quick snack. They taste like a little candy bar but without the guilt.

I love Slim-Fast as a diet plan. The shakes act as a meal replacement. They are tasty and filling. I feel energized and never sluggish. Weight loss happens as I replace nutritional alternatives instead of fatty meals. They make meal planning easy.

The Rich Chocolate Royale flavor of Slim-Fast is really quite tasty. When I was working as a teacher, I liked having Slim-Fast for breakfast. It gave me a good start to the day.
