Davey1984 said:Hi All,
I have 73lb to lose and I have tried Weight Watchers and Slimming World and neither are working for me, maybe because they both give me too much freedom and I am just bingeing on crap, so I decuded to give the Tesco Ultraslim a try and see if I can lose the weight that way.
My main problem is my breakfast and lunches whilst I am at work, I always tend to eat high caloried foods which is full of fat, so by the time I get home of a night I just end up continuing with my binge. So I thought if I took the freedom of choice away from me, then I would be more likely to be sucessful.
What is peoples experience on this plan?
Does it work?
I hear alot of people saying as soon as you stop it you put all the weight back on and more, but surely this is only if you stop following a plan, as these plans are diet controlled, you would need to continue following a calorie controlled diet otherwise you will gain weight.
My mother in law followed Slim Fast and lost 4 stone on this programme and that was 3 years ago and still to this day, she is maintaining because she watches what she eats and hasnt stopped "following a plan"
I lost 8 and a half stone on the old WW plan and when I stopped following WW, i inevetibly put all the weight back on.
I hope I am right?

Jens journey said:Hi all new to minimins x I am also new to the shake diet trying asda one x anyone lost weight on asda one? Do I have shake for beaky and lunch then a low cal dinner? Im also a week into insanity DVD absolutely loving then hard work shame I'm struggling to diet properly need some motivation on diet side and up for challenges x I have 9 weeks until my holiday so I need to do this! xx
Hiya I have been doing the asda measure up for a month and have lost 9 pounds which is amazing, this was by having a shake for breakfast 100 cal snack then shake for lunch another 100 cal snack then 600 calorie dinner.
But when I went to get my shakes asda have changed them to asda meal replacement which you need to add skimmed milk and I had noticed the sugar contents are high at 24g per serving, so anyway I thought ok am gona have to carry on ect but after 4 days on the new asda shakes they are making me feel more hungry plus I am getting these weird stomach aches,farty feelings amd feeling a littke bloated. I prefer the old shakes as u mix it up with water and the sugar am sure was less plus I never ever felt hungry!!
MrsWilsoncroft said:That's unfair that they've changed the ingredients and that you have to add milk now.
Maybe the sugar in it makes you feel more hungry Hun.
You could try the super drug version as I've heard a few people say its pretty good xxx

This is my 4th day on the asda meal replacement shake and I have been feeling quite light headed and tierd x ohhh I didn't know I could have snacks... I have been having shake for breakfast and lunch and had small nibbles of strawberries when felt peckish and having just under 600cal dinners. Not been feeling hungry just really tierd :/ considering moving into slimfast or superdrug after this tin not too keen on dizziness! I had a cheeky weigh in and I am down 2lbs ! Going to have snack now and see if I feel better.
Thanks hunny, well asda doesn't state on how to Take the shakes so I just followed the slim fast way lolll but it worked, defo start adding ur 100 cals snack and you will notice a difference hopefully, good luck Hun let us know how u get on x
Totally unfair as I was actually loving the fact I don't have to fuss about what to eat for breakfast and lunch, must be the sugars making me feel hungry, will check out the superdrugs make, thanks Hun x
MrsWilsoncroft said:Youre welcome Hun. I think Slim Fast is on offer at the moment at Boots so might be worth checking it out.
we could do with an offers thread so we can post where we see it on offer from time to time xxx
Jens journey said:I know very strange how it doesn't state very much! I will probs feel alot better once I have snacks inbetween shakes x will do and good luck! Xx
