i read everyones replys about slim fast. I was thinking about going on my own type of diet, but instead of having a candy bar when I crave one, having a slim fast. If I had 1,300 calories a day, including one slim fast brownie meal on go bar a day, would the bar effect me from losing weight becasue of its fat content?

If you are or are going to eat only 1300 calories a day thats a good diet right there, it doesnt really matter where the calories come from(well some foods are better than others) so i think its fine to eat a slimfast bar especially compared to a snickers or sumthin. :)

it would help though- who cares if it's suppose to be one whole meal? obviously you're not going to follow the slimfast diet- but it would definately be better then eating a canybar! i think it's a good idea even though i use slimfast completely. slimfast meals are only 220 as opposed to a candybars 400 or more calories if you acctually add up the right amount of servings!

Thats not really a good idea. Even thought a slim fast is better for you than a candy bar, a slim fast is meant to be one whole meal, NOT just a snack.

that's a really good idea- it would definately help becasue it would get rid of your sweet tooth instead of eating a high calorie- high fat candy bar. it's a really healthy choice becasue it has tons of vitamins and is low in fat.
