Vanilla Meal Replacement Shake - Low-Glycemic High Plant Base Protein Powder- Nutritional Weight Health Support Supplement - Vanilla Flavor - 17.6 oz (1.1 Pound (1 Pack))

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.

I find Almaden to have a mild almond flavor. If you start with a half cup of milk and gradually stir in the mixture till there are no lumps then add the rest of the milk it’s very creamy. I totally enjoy drinking it and I’m very excited to see the weight loss after I’ve been on it for a while.

The product is good. Not sure if it's something that I would do for a long period of time. I feel energetic when I do take it. In fact, when I had blood work done, it actually seemed to have lowered my cholesterol. Unlike the other protein shakes I've had, it did leave a sour milk taste in my mouth. As soon as I drank it, I would run to the bathroom and brush my teeth. 😂

Terrible taste! Trying to get two meals a day down - have used a blender and blackberries to help the taste, but so far, its still pretty bad! Had hoped the taste would have been better; really need to use for three meals a day, but I just can't handle the taste. My energy level is OK and it is filling, but as far as effectiveness is concerned, need to wait for a few more weeks. It's fairly expensive, if you plan on replacing most of your meals with this plant based protein powder - could cost you quite a bundle!

Nice product, good flavor, easy to put into milk, water or juice while blender treatment is best if you want it to have a smoother texture and not slightly gritty… I’ve found fruit juice to dissolve it in is a great way to more rapidly get it into solution. Yes, a little over a week I’ve started to lose weight.
