PGX by Natural Factors, SlimStyles Drink Mix, Supports Healthy Weight Management and Helps Reduce Appetite, French Vanilla, 28 oz (13 servings)

I have tried many shakes and this one by far has worked for me. Immediately after drinking the half portion they tell you to start out with I had absolutely no sugar/carb craving until later in the day. So I am going to start a shake in the morning and after drinking it make another one and refrigerate it. After you refrigerate a shake after you make it it will turn to pudding so I am going to eat that for my afternoon snack about 2:30 to help my craving for the rest of the day. Your insulin is always higher when you first wake up in the morning so the shake in the morning with say a small portioned breakfast for satisfaction will start your day off right. If you wait you insulin will be high and you will eat poorly and then it will spiral into a day of poor eating habits. I have been doing this over and over and finally this shake not only works but it is really really good. I have tried the french vanilla and is good but this double chocolate is like a dessert in itself and it helps me not to overeat like I always do. For the first time, I just couldn't control my cravings for sugar and carbs or just plain overeating. I turned 40 and my body went haywire. I am doing progesterone cream as well but that wasn't helping my cravings. I did try the low carb thing and I get bitchy you know how that dieting is. This shake allows me to eat what I want but guess what I just eat healthy because I don't crave as much bad stuff. Really weird how this can help me not choose sugar and carb stuff but I just eat better. You have to try this because I have been desperate for help yo- yoing on diets for so long after not losing baby weight and that was like 2 years ago ...hello time to lose those pounds no excuses and this shake I don't have to try so hard. I am so happy it makes me want to take a few walks around the neighborhood for some good old sunshine. I am just doing 30 minutes in the morning and in the evening just slow walks but I am feeling so much better. Please give it a try!

There are several PGX fiber drinks available, this is the best brand, IT comes in vanilla, chocolate and strawberry.. I make it like a milkshake. I fill a glass with half ice and half water. Pour it in a blender with 2 scoops of the mix; blend it; pour it back into the glass; add a straw and enjoy it.The PGX soluble fiber is far more expansive than other fibers such as psyllium. Follow it up with a glass of water. I have a shake for breakfast and then another about a hour before dinner. It does fill you up and sate your hunger.So far after a month and a half I am down 10 pounds. I am diabetic.One of my concerns is to control my blood sugar and am very curious about my next set of blood tests (every 3-6 months), I can say that the need to drink water frequently and the urinate several times at night ( a common diabetic symptom) has significantly.

I like that this is extremely filling for a meal replacement, however 11 or 12 grams of sugar per serving is far too much sugar. I've had to only use 1 scoop to cut the sugar in half and use other protein powders. Not sure if I will reorder.

Expensive shake and fiber does fill but you still gotta chew food so it’s not really an appetite suppressant and has way too much sweetness, overwhelming and feeds unhealthy yeast.

This works for me on my sugar. I got it to lower my sugar not lose weight. ( not sure how it works on that) I don't like the taste when it is made with water so I use low fat milk. and usually add frozen fruit. It make a good shake that way, and it does keep me full for a while , and of course you have to drink I think it is a 16 oz glass of water after you drink it , ( or at least in a hour after) . Not sure would have to read the directions.

Looking for something to help me lose weight and affordable was almost impossible. I found this at a local store and tried it. I was surprised at the taste. Normally things like this have that ever-lasting bitter after taste and only pretended to be chocolate. This tastes good and is chocolatey. I use a hand-held blender, a Toastmaster, that works great with this. I haven't really been following a program, just use this for breakfast and I have lost 5 lbs in about 3 weeks. I am sure if added a little exercise and cut out a few of the higher sugar/calorie things I eat, the weight loss would have been more dramatic. This is satisfying and I find I am not hungry until it is time for the next meal. Plus I have problems feeling nauseous and this helps settle that feeling.

I first bought the Slim Styles products many years ago. I had the Strawberry flavor shake and didn't care for the taste, but used it anyway. It really does keep my appetite down. I also bought the Granules and the Capsules.Now, I'm back for the Double Chocolate shake and it is delicious. Just mixed some with my coconut milk and need to go drink some water.I'd really like to pose my question to the company, but there is NO contact information on the label, so I'll ask you, the other purchasers of the product:In the container, is the product granular or clumped together? There are none of those little "Do Not Eat" packets that control moisture in supplement bottles. Is it supposed to be clumpy?Glad to be able to purchase the products here at Amazon at more affordable prices than at some Vitamin Stores.

Cannot say enough good about this product, it really, truly works. Nothing stupendously fast or outrageous, just steady weight loss and appetite control. Average weight loss for me is 11 to 14 pounds a month, I am not hungry all the time, I am not exhausted all the time, and i don't have massive carb and sugar cravings. I drink 3-4 shakes a day and have one very healthy meal. I don't even use a supplemental "bar". ALWAYS drink LOTS of water after drinking your "smoothie". I add frozen berries to the vanilla, and powdered peanut butter to the chocolate.What can I say? Try this stuff, you will be pleasantly amazed.
