what do you think about slimfast high protein shakes?

I only use Carnation Instant Breakfast meal . I love the taste . I would use 2% milk. Sometimes I buy Kroger comp brand.

As I recall, SlimFast Hi Protein is not really very high protein! It's only about 15 grams. The good quality protein drinks made for bariatric patients have anywhere between 25-40 grms for about the same price. Since we need 80-100 grams a day, and it's hard to get much with just food in a tiny little pouch, I think the bariatric drinks are much healthier and you don't have to use as many. And if you use the powders, much cheaper. Canned RTD's average about 2 dollars/can whereas powders average about 50 cents a serving. I keep RTD's on hand for traveling or a quick drink, but use the powders for daily life. Also, the powders can be 'doctored up' with SF syrups and fruit and give you much more variety than just drinking the same thing every day.

gayletx were can you get the protein shake you are talking about can you get them at a health food store they have one in our mall.

I don't like the premade shakes at all. I rarely use them but if and when I do, it is Matrix 5.0 mix all the way.

I had wanted to use the pre-canned shakes, but it was going to be way too expensive. I have tried a lot of different kinds of powdered shakes and I can't stand most of them but I LOVE the Unjury powder. I had been putting it in the blender with 1% milk, and some ice, and blended it all up. Tastes just like a shake. But I also tried it the other night with just water, and that was still delicious. The chocolate tastes just like chocolate milk. Vanilla and strawberry are very good too. They even have an unflavored one that you can mix with broth. If you're interested you can order it at Welcome to the UNJURY Homepage.

Good luck.

Too. Much. Sugar.

Like others said, you can do a LOT better. Plus the SlimFast kind taste awful, I tried. Plenty of other choices out there, shop around a little.
