Hiya,

I'm new to the board. Just wanted to tell you what I've just found out about slim fast!

I have been drinking slim fast for years, mostly for breakfast because I'm "not a breakfast person."

Just found out my triglycerides are pretty high and I'm supposed to avoid sugar... well, I was talking to a friend about that and we were talking about slim fast and she told me Slim Fast had a lot of sugar in it!

Sure enough, there are 35-40 grams of sugar in it depending on whether or not you are drinking a canned shake or a meal replacement bar (choc chip cookie dough flavored).

So... I'm not using it anymore... I have switched to AdvantEdge because it has less than one gram of sugar in it. (Slim fast tasted much better!)

Had anyone else realized how much sugar was in that stuff?

Just "food for thought!"
