Slim Fast? Sure Why Not!

As y'all know I've been trying to lose this baby weight, so when Social Spark told me I had an offer to try Slim-Fast for free I was all over it! This week has been challenging because my Mom's birthday was Wednesday, our first without her. I am usually an emotional eater so the good eating plan kind of went out the window for a couple of days. I was keeping track of my calories in my calorie counter app and went over my limit by about 300. How am I eating 1000 calories by 3pm?! I was pretty discouraged, but then I got a coupon for free Slim Fast in the mail and I thought...why not? I went to the store to pick up my free Slim-Fast and since I had to coupon I didn't bring my purse. Well it turns out that here in NC you have to pay tax, so I fished around in my pocket for $0.17 and then I was on my way!

I have tried Slim Fast before, when Gabe was a baby. He was my first baby and I felt like I had no time to eat, all I did was take care of him all day! I didn't follow the plan exactly, I would usually drink it whenever I didn't have time to eat, usually just for breakfast. The baby weight did come off pretty quickly, but I didn't like the way the Slim Fast tasted, and it made my pee smell funny (TMI? Sorry! But it's the truth and I wouldn't lie to ya!) I was skeptical at first that this new formula would taste any better, but I was pleasantly surprised! I tried the Rich Chocolate Royale and it is really yummy! A lot of nutritional shakes have that weird vitamin-y taste to them but this one really doesn't! I like to drink with a straw from a tall glass with ice, it makes it feel like a treat!

Slim-fast has helped me stay in my allotted calories because each shake is 190 calories so if I have a shake for breakfast and lunch and two 100 calorie snacks that puts me at 580 calories before dinner. That is wayyy under what I've been doing on my own. If you think Slim-Fast can help you achieve your weight loss goals go "LIKE" them on Facebook and check out their "Vow to WOW" contest!
