Just like a frappuccino!!!



Recommended Posts

So I have discovered pure delight in the form of frothy goodness. Slimfast chocolate and vanilla powder blended with non-fat milk and ice is to die for! Seriously - I am in heaven and could have this delicious concoction morning, noon and night. And - at 200 calories a pop, I just might! I’ve used my design skills to put together a step by step set of instructions for all of you on how to create the perfect shake. Really - you can’t go wrong…and it’s ooh so right!

Sounds awesome! I was wondering, I keep the canned low carb slim fast at home...........could I just add some ice to that and blend it, would it taste pretty much the same?

I don't see why not. Try it out and if it tastes like a frapp - then you know it's right! I actually put a bit more than a cup and a half of ice in it - about 2 cups and we have a really powerful blender. I then pour it into a big cup and scoop it out with a spoon and it's like i'm eating a chocolate or vanilla ice cream shake. only better!!!

Ooh yes - make sure you blend it really good - and my favorite way to eat it is with a spoon - that way it's like a nice thick milkshake!!! I now have to fight my husband away from taking "tastes"!!!

You will be over the moon! It's my favorite thing .. I may stay on liquids forever!!! Well - maybe not forever - but I'll keep drinking the shakes for as long as they keep making slimfast!

Yummy!!! I can't wait to try this.

Sadly I'm lactose intolerant. Slimfast is made using milk products.

I am eating it right now.....very good stuff! I used the canned low carb chocolate slim fast, a lot of ice, and just a little leftover coffee from this morning and ummmm, it's very good. I'm also eating it with a spoon, make me think I'm eating something bad.......but I'm not! Thanks for the idea!

Sounds good but is that a tablespoon of the slimfast, or one of the slimfast scoops, or a teaspoon, or...? I can just see myself making it wrong and having it be gross.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
