It can. But I have found that, with my clients, those who try the Slim-Fast shakes are absolutely starving by dinner! If you can stick to it, it does provide you with the right amount of nutrients to function. But I would never recommend it. Eating whole grains, low fats, small proportioned meals are so much better and more enjoyable!

Yes - Slim Fast does work. Just be careful to take in the right amount of calories per day while on Slim Fast.
By using SF you reduce your calorie intake by having a shake for breakfast and one for lunch. A true "diet" only works if your body can use the calories to loose weight. If you are taking in a low amount of calories your body thinks it is malnourished and your metabolism will be thrown off.
Be sure you have snacks in-between meals (fruit, yogurt, side salads) and a good dinner.
Obviously exercise helps too. If you decide to exercise all the more you have to make sure your getting enough calories into your system.

diets dont do it baby!!!!!!!!!! whats wrong with you people!!!!!
if people would exercise more they would not have to worry so darn much about food...Are you really serious about doing this? We are talking about hard work. Putting down your little debbies, getting off your butt and not only going on a diet but EXERCISING!!! Even if you lose the weight it will come right back if you do not have the desire and motivation to not only look cute but to be healthy. it is going to take alot of inner strength I can assure you of that.
1.) eat 4-5 small meals a day
2.) drink lots of water
3.)exercise every day
4.) do not eat 4-6 hours before you sleep.

I have heard of people who have lost weight using Slim-Fast, but when they go back to eating the meals, they gain it back. Slim-Fast is NOT healthy. It is FULL of sugar and dairy. One single serving can contains.....34 grams of sugar and 220 grams of sodium.

Not for me...actually it made me feel very unfocused and high. I wasn't eating enough calories and I had difficulty keeping my thoughts straight and driving. To loose weight eat healthy and exercise, it's the best way. It may take longer then you want but it works AND you feel good.
