Hello All,

I have been on Slim-Fast for about two weeks and have lost about 5 pounds. I am hoping to hear some others experiences of Slim-Fast users, hopefully success stories. I am kinda feeling bored of the diet now and I need some imput. If you hate it you can say that also. Thanks for your time!!!

Answer:

In late nov. '06 I started on slim fast for medical reasons(Diabetes). This week about 2 months later I have lost 40lbs.

But for me I was always very active and athletic. Also it is the same disease that I watched my mother die from just a few months earlier(A definate trigger to change my life). Slim fast like any other diet plan will work, the problem is when you get off the diet you tend to gain the weight back. What you want to do is change your lifestyle, that is the key to keeping the weight off. Also you need to get support to help you when you're feeling bored

I tried the Slim Fast diet for about a month but I didn't lose a pound because I'm a bit lactose intolerant, and...well...you know.

Instead of going fully on that diet, why not just substitute a shake for one meal when you're on the go?

It doesn't seem like a diet that would work well in the long-term. I mean, sure, you might lose the weight initially but how are you going to keep it off? By continuing to drink the shakes? Obviously that won't work because you've already indicated that you're bored after two weeks.
