I have been having these for both breakfast and lunch for the last 2 weeks, i am now only replacing lunch as I can get bored quite easily. The strawberry is lovely. I have been mixing 1 scoop with 250ml of cold water. I am using the active women shaker to mix this which has mixed quite well with very few lumps. I have lost 8 pounds over the last 2 weeks but I have been doing 1-2 hours of exercise every day and I am doing Slimming World along side this. I don't think this would have worked as well if I wasn't doing the rest of my personal plan. You could put this in a blender along with some ice and a handful of berries which is great for breakfast! I'm not even half way through by 2.5kg bag so the product really does go a long way. I have felt full after each shake which has reduced my need to snack, keeping my calories down. I would recommend this to anyone who is wanting to trim down but you must exercise and eat a healthy balanced meal.

I read quite a few comments about the taste being too sweet, and when I first had it I completely agreed it was awful, but I've discovered just diluting it more makes it a lot better. It is very filling but I haven't been using it long enough to notice any results yet so can't comment on that. Goes Well With: Lots of water!

I bought the chocolate brownie flavour- it tastes good, a bit too sweet but mixes very well, I make about half water, half soya/coconut/cashew milk depending on what I have. I wasn't a fan at first as I made it with just the recommended water and no milk and I felt if it was thicker it'd feel more like a meal, but when I mix it half and half I can barely finish the bottle! It's so filling which is exactly what you'd want from a meal replacement, so overall a good purchase and I would recommend. Goes Well With: Half water, half milk or milk substitute

I bought the vanilla to try and help Slim down whilst training ...some reviews mentioned some flavours being too sweet. I don't eat any sugar in my natural diet ...I didn't find the vanilla too sweet at all. At first it tastes a bit chalky. I mix mine with water. It tastes alright considering its powder and water. It keeps me full for ages and helps with my protein intake. I have only been using it for about a week but I will definitely be ordering more and different flavours

I recently used a different replacement powder but found it quite expensive tried the velvet vanilla and found it tastes better you get more for your money and very filling did not feel hungry after drinking will see how I go this is month two of my healthy eating plan not diet.
