I am just now starting to consider SlimFast as my weight loss plan.  I am confused though.  I went to the webiste, and registered.  However I found the meal plan confusing.  I thought the premise of the plan was to eat 2 shakes and have a sensible dinner.  However, it looks like you eat 2 shakes a day along with a small mini meal.  I was considering SlimFast because of the simplicity and not having to worry about putting together a healthy low calorie meal...I could just drink it.  If this is the case and I still have to prepare a small mini meal in addition to the shake..I see no sense in spending money on expensive shakes...when it's not saving time with cooking.

kcchichi,

Having just two shakes and a Sensible Meal will barely provide you with 900 calories.  We never recommend eating less than 1200 calories without physician supervision.  For that reason, we have added Snacks and a light meal with lunch.  If you find it too difficult to cook at lunch, consider just making half a sandwich, or heating up a can of low-fat soup with a serving of crackers.
