Tescos Ultra Slim/Slimfast 1.2.3

[Mariaa]

Went to tescos today to get Slimfast shake powder and for a 12 serving tin it was £5.9something...
But Tesco Ultraslim shake powder was 2 tins (12 servings) for £6, so i got them instead, starting tomorrow so just wondered if anyones tried it, or even Slimfast, so i know what its like, if its any good?!

And whens the best time to weigh yourself? First thing in the morning when your empty so its a true weight?

Thanks!!!

ive been on SF & loved it.
lost 13lb in 6 weeks.
sadly i discovered i was having daily intake of processed sugars of 60g (average) i wasn't happy. SF shakes wete half of this alone. When i missed or drank shake late i got terrible headaches. If i hadn't been exercising as muchas i do i don't think woulda burnt off the sugar & woulda probs gained weight.

eek. i guess theres a downside to everything, i figure its not a long term thing anyway so its okay. Any exercises recommended too? to tone up my stomach, its not actually as bad as i thought it would be, but im sick of OH poking it and calling it cute. haha x

yeah its a short term thing, on old site had my prigramme for 13weeks tbh i don't thinkthats short term.
it did what i hoped it would thought & kicked started my weightloss again. With your 3 snacks just have to try keep sugars low. Like i loved the yoghurt go ahead bars but they were packed with sugars too. Really important you drink ya 2L water don't go under1200 cals a daygood luck!
exercise i do is, wii, bike & cross trainer but cross trainer only a recent thing. Seems not even been month since had LO still won't be best it could be, like in 6months time without exercise you'd see a difference but, hard work will pay off in the long run, i had massive overhang been 6months now gone down by 3/4 so it does happen
as for weigh in once a weekis enough, first thing after loo trip &before brekki.

sorry for spelling mistakes, on my phone my buttons keep going dodgey lol

How did you work that out? I'm on the diet at the moment and my daily intake of suger isn't anywhere near 60g.

I just had my first shake, not only was the taste pretty crummy, but i can deal with that. it didnt mix very well, i tried everything but it still had yuky gooey lumps in. GROSS!!

I'm on ultraslim (although i've just had a week off for my 30th birthday and my friends hen do!!) and i use the ready made cartons - mainly because they are nicer IMO and very easy. I also have the ultraslim bars which are lovely. I find it really easy to stick to and it def works for me when i stick to it xx

ive started makin a big jug now of the shake and blending it, it goes to frothy to drink right away but once in the fridge for a while it goes quite thin and really smooth. bought a pack of the meal replacement bars too but havnt tried one yet, and i just bought slimfast snacks.
I just want it to work so badly!!!

Be confident, it will work. Good luck hun x

O and make sure you drink lots of water x

I make my slim fast shake in a shaker. It's never lumpy and tastes delicious.

each shake is 17g = 34g
40g is adult recommded intake on 2000calorie.
34g + snacks i enjoy & were low in calories (go ahead) coming out 12g
There snack bars have alot it soon mounts up.

Natural sugars it doesnt matter like fruits but processed sugar does matter.

I only have 1 shake and 2 low calorie snacks a day. But I can see how the sugar levels would build up if you had 2 shakes a day as well as the snacks.
