Tastes great, less fillingMar 12, 2008
By Scott
I've been drinking these for about 4 years now, usually 1 a day, and they work pretty well for weight maintenance. When trying to lose weight, I will usually substitute one meal a day with a Slim Fast - breakfast or lunch. I also have these for breakfast a lot, simply because I can grab one from the fridge and drink it in 30 seconds, which is great when I'm in a hurry, and because I always make sure to eat something for breakfast.
Usually however, I drink these in the mornings before a run so that I will have some food in my body to fuel the run. Since it is basically a liquid, it doesn't upset my stomach if I drink it right before I head out the door.
I can't attest to the other flavors, but Rich Chocolate Royale tastes fairly decently. I never crave the taste of a Slim Fast, and I am not fooled into thinking I am drinking a milkshake, but they do taste pretty good.
Finally, the great thing about Slim Fast is the nutritional makeup. It has 6g of fat, which can be misleading since an amazing 3g of that is monounsaturated and polyunsaturated (good fats). The best part about slim Fast are the 5g of fiber and 10g of Protein in each can, which are very high amounts. This makes it great for a post run/workout drink as well.
My only problem with Slim Fast, is that one can is likely not going to be enough to work as a meal replacement for many people. It is just not enough food. I have heard if you try drinking it slowly it helps, but I usually find myself hungry a couple hours after drinking one. For people under 150 lbs it may be enough, but I would almost recommend two Slim Fasts as a meal replacement for anyone trying to lose a significant amount of weight. There is no way I could replace two meals a day with Slim Fasts (like their ads say), then have a "sensible" dinner. I would be starving. But it is a great product as a snack or before a workout.

 A fine product. It works.Feb 09, 2011
By Matthew Tulini
I'm not on the Slim-Fast diet per se, but I am on a low-calorie diet and I do use this product as a substitute for breakfast. I like that I can grab it and go out the door without taking the time to buy or prepare breakfast, so it saves me a considerable amount of time. It's also much cheaper than buying/making breakfast, especially if you order from Amazon. I've tried the Creamy Milk Chocolate and Rich Chocolate Royale flavors. I prefer Rich Chocolate Royale - it has a stronger chocolate flavor. The Creamy Milk Chocolate tastes more sweet and milky. Neither is bad, but I prefer the Rich Chocolate Royale.
Nutritionally speaking, these shakes are pretty good. 190 calories, 6g of fat, 5g fiber, 10g protein, and fortified with vitamins. The only problem I have is that they contain about 5 teaspoons of sugar per can. But hey, it's a milkshake. They actually have far less sugar than, say, a can of soda. So this is a minor quibble.
So will 1 shake really fill you up? No, not really. Not in my experience anyway. But if we kept eating until we were full we wouldn't be able to lose weight now, would we?
To be fair, the Slim-Fast diet does allow you to eat 3 snacks a day (of approx 100 calories each), and a sensible dinner (of about 500 calories). And yes, you are supposed to *gasp* exercise as part of the diet. So if you actually, god forbid, stick to the diet you will be consuming about 1200 calories a day and exercising off a few hundred of them. The numbers do not lie. If you follow this diet you WILL lose weight. Anybody who says otherwise is either lying or not following the diet. And yes, the Slim-Fast diet is very easy to follow IF you have the willpower.
Some people complain that the Slim-Fast diet is unsustainable as a way of life. These people are misguided. Slim-Fast is a weight loss plan, NOT a weight maintenance plan. It was never meant to be a "way of life." Once you get to your target weight, you will unfortunately have to learn proper diet and exercise habits in order to maintain your weight.
In summary, this is a good product and it works as advertised. Weight loss ain't easy.

If you like chocolate, you'll like this!Mar 29, 2008
By K. Baker
I love chocolate and this hits the spot. I actually like the Chocolate Royale a little better, but this is still worthy of 5 stars. I feel like I'm getting a treat when I have one. It's supposed to help keep you feeling full longer ("Optima" - up to 4 hours), but I still get hungry after having one....but then again, I always feel hungry! I like the fact that you're getting lots of vitamins/minerals when you have one too.

 Ripped off by another company! WTF?!Oct 08, 2011
By Marji Morningstar
I've been buying Slim-Fast cans (Cappuccino)for years and love it as a breakfast drink. Recently I found out that they're no longer offering it in cans. That I could accept but, if purchasing the new screw-top bottles (that I could give a rat's ass about...) I get only four per pack instead of six for the same price! Do companies think we're all clueless on math? I'd be paying the same for two less servings. They've lost my business completely. Slim-Fast, thanks for nothing! The ill-will alone would cause me to never come back.

Love itMar 03, 2010
By M. Wolf
I have a chocolate slim fast 11oz can with an apple twice per day (tastes great together)and an 80% vegetarian dinner usually under 800 calories and I've lost 12 lbs in 3 weeks. (about 1400-1500 calories per day with mild exercise)
The price was good and shipping was fast.
