Not sure where you live; however, here is a link to WalGreens - they carry them -

High Protein Shakes | Slim-Fast | Walgreens

Also googled "slim fast high Protein shakes" -- here are all the results ...

You can buy the SlimFast Low Carb....5 more grams of Protein and 25 grams less carbs than the High Protein version, same calories. I know, go figure?!?!? I can buy either one at Target, Walgreens and Kroger. Haven't looked anywhere else because I can always find it. However, I did look on Amazon to see if they offered a better price. You can buy a case on Amazon for the same price as buying the 4 packs at the store and they offer fast shipping.

Walmart carries them here, but I like the EAS Edge or EAS Lite, 17/20 grams of Protein. The EAS Edge is only 110 cals but I do have a Slim-Fast (coffee flavored one) every once in a while. Over a two-week period you have to change them up a bit. i also can do FF yogurt. So I get a Greek yogurt called Chobani (but there are several out there), that's almost as many grams of Protein.< /p>

Good luck

I've been drinking the EAS Edge and Lite. Today made one from a suggestion from another web site.

1/2 cup FF milk (I always use Organic Milk)

1/2 cup FF cottage cheese (could also use Greek Yogurt)

2 packets of Splenda

fruit of choice (I used 2 frozen strawberries)

Ice (optional)

Blend

Mine came up to 170 calories 22 grams of Protein. The cottage cheese sounds like it wouldn't be good but you can't really taste it, plus it's high in Protein.< /p>

Doesn't make as big of a drink as the EAS, but was just like a strawberry smoothie. But blueberries might be good also...great for antioxidants.

Just a suggestion. After a week of this, looking for variety. LOL
