Lean Shakes From GNC

Does anyone else use these? They are one of the only kinds of shakes I can tolerate. I am perpetually stalled though and started to wonder whether the shakes are an issue. I am staying between 600-800 calories per day, less than 50 carbs per day, exercising 4-5x per week. And I've only lost five pounds in the last 5 weeks. It's discouraging. So I am trying to reevaluate. Thoughts?

How far out from surgery are you?

I used these on my liquid diet and lost 16 lbs just in my liquid phase and I was drinking five of these a day mixed with skim milk. So maybe you're just on a stall.

:) I love them...Lean Shakes Berries and Cream is my Fav.. I used they pre -op and still post op...**** very tasty!

Congrats on your weight loss....

I drink the pre-mixed shakes every day for breakfast. Love the chocolate ones.

My surgery was December 3 so I think I am 9 or 10 weeks out today. I got off to a good start but it slowed down at 2 weeks and just never really has taken off. Trying not to get discouraged. Sigh

Everyone loses weight differently. Some people lose pounds, some people lose inches. Check your measurements, I am sure there is some kind of change! I have a friend who lost two pounds but 3.5 inches off her waist alone. And if all else fails, drink liquids only for a few days & change up your workout routine. I hope this helps!

I was on Atkins shakes but it only had 16 grams of Protein . I was barely doing two a day. I just bought the lean shakes very excited it has 25 grams of protein in one bottle ! Taste great
