My friend (She isn't a close friend, but she understands the problems I face with my weight.. much like she used to) had some left over packets of the shakes left over. I'm probably going to be starting Exante soon, so I told her about it. She had forgotten to mention that is how she has lost the bulk of her weight. but anyway, I tried the choc shake hot, and mixed in a little bit of Vanilla in with it (I'm sure plenty of you have done this before) and it didn't taste that bad.
