What's the power you're using. I thought about going back to using Slim Fast- that stuff has really helped me with snacking through the years- yeah, I know, I lot of calories. But it's skim milk. Better than a Snicker's bar or a bag of cheese pretzels!
Does it mix with water or with milk. I may just start drinking a glass of skim milk when I get hungry, but, unless I've got something that I really like to drink milk with, I don't care for the flavor of it. For some reason I crave milk when I have spaghetti- mom's influence, I guess.
It's called "South Beach 'Tide Me Over'". It comes in 2 different flavors and mixes with a 16 oz bottle of water (or 20 oz for a more diluted flavor). I like it....it works...but I"ll be honest and say I think it has something to do with mind over matter too....so who knows....it tastes just like the crystal lite stuff w/o sugar or calories...but this stuff has a bit of protein & fiber to curb the "need" to eat between meals.
Slim Fast is great....but I found that when I stopped using it, I gained all the weight back.....the nice thing about this powder, is that it really just helps you get INTO the new habit of NOT eating between meals...it doesn't really replace anything.
