Almased Meal Replacement Shake - Low-Glycemic High Plant Base Protein Powder- Nutritional Weight Health Support Supplement - Original Flavor - 17.6 oz

I’ve lost 15 lbs in about 2 months BUT, I have one shake/day and for the other meals either vegetables or egg whites or tuna. I like the Almased because (1)it keeps my focus on losing weight, (2) it is easy to prepare, (3) it gives me all the nutrients I need while eating so few calories so I feel good, (4) my hair is thicker and healthier and fingernails are stronger. I do not believe that I could drink Almased for a meal and eat whatever I want for other meals and still lose weight. But, it is an effective tool with an otherwise healthy diet. I tried 2 shakes/day and got depressed, so I dropped down to 1/day and felt better. I have not been exercising but am not sedentary. Almased does not taste great. I put a cup of frozen berries in a Ninja, about a cup of water, 1/2 single serve packet of lemonade mix (True Lemon) and the Almased. Pulse 2 or 3 times and it is a bowl or a shake. That way it is enjoyable and feels more like a meal without adding many calories. It seems a bit expensive but at $4/meal, it isn’t bad. What would you pay to lose weight?? So, while I do not believe all the claims Almased makes, it does give the nutrients needed to reduce calories and still stay healthy and give a boost to hair and nails in the process. When I lose 15 more lbs, I’ll probably continue the Almased for the nutrition value and add in more daily calories.

Great product, and works better than any of the numerous diets I’ve tried. I am 60 years old, so I blame menopause for making it so difficult to lose weight. But with the help of Almased and its website I can finally say I have been successful at losing 10lbs over 5 months and feel wonderful I enjoy the vanilla almond flavor, mixed with coconut or almond milk, it makes a satisfying meal. The website for Almased has many reviews and tips, which gave me more incentive to stick with the diet.

First off, I tried this product many years ago and honestly don't remember the results. This time I will remember! I gained 8 pounds over the holidays on top of 5 pounds I already needed to lose. Partly age and menopause, and partly holiday eating. Yes, this stuff is ridiculously expensive (I use a high quality collagen powder that costs about the same but it's about triple the amount), and yes, it doesn't taste great but I use the chocolate shake recipe and add a small amount of banana or raspberry extract and it's not horrible. The cost and taste are the reason I gave 4 stars. If not for that it would have been 5 because after only two days of the 3 day detox I'm already down 4 pounds. Water weight? Maybe. I don't care! The scale is moving in the right direction! We'll see how it goes from here. Just ordered a second can and hoping that might be all I need so I can get my normal low carb high protein diet back on track.

My partner and I used about 7-9 cans total. The taste isn’t as bad as people say. It’s meh. My problem is that 1. We WERE hungry starting day two. And we got hungrier! 2. I have a history of hypoglycemia and my partner is mildly diabetic. They say it’s good for diabetics so I assumed it would be okay. It is not! Be careful if you have blood sugar issues. I struggled much more with blood sugar drops but we both experienced some. Mine were severe. 3. We lost a total of maybe 1-3 pounds and gained it back the moment we stopped, and then some. So why three stars? Except for the fact that the ingredients, like yogurt, are not organic or GrassFed (which is a pretty big deal health wise), they seem like fairly good quality. It would be impossible to have used local honey, which of course would be best, but the combination is evidence based. The taste is manageable. And I think had we not suffered blood sugar issues it would have been fairly do-able, but I don’t love any plan that is liquid based because I just don’t believe overall it’s the most healthy. Still, for what it is, I think it’s good for many people.

I find the smoothie’s very filling. The aftertaste is not bad either. I like the fact that I am not very hungry after drinking these smoothies. This product is great for weight loss.

Overall, I love this product because it actually seems to be working. I will say the taste is not the greatest. I add extra vanilla flavoring and three packets of Splenda and that helps a lot. It’s pretty chalky. But I love the way it’s making me feel because I definitely can tell that it’s working.

I really enjoy using this product and I have lost about 30 lbs with it. If you can handle drinking this twice a day and having one normal meal a day then you can definitely work with this. it is well balanced and fills you up. The taste is a bit boring maybe but not offensive, but you can add some flavor with cinnamon or other things. I don't add anything and use almond milk with it and still use it for my breakfasts.

I've only used it as a meal substitute and one meal a day but yet haven't kept up consistently for more than 5 days in a row. However just adding it has helped with metabolism weight control, detox. When I did it more consistent I noticed clearer mind, more energy, better gut function, better sleep. I can't imagine how much good it will do to fully do the plan. Easy to drink and mix, taste is ok. I can drink a standard 8 tablespoon shake for breakfast and don't get hungry till after noon (aka very filling).

Works really well But it is pricey as one tin is only 10 meals The program is expensive if you have a lot of weight to lose The almond-vanilla flavour is great but much more expensive now So I am now trying the original flavour Haven't received it yet
