I felt cheated when I made the shake with 8 oz of water (looks only), so I added 2 cups of ice and made a shake/smoothie that to the eye was quite large, the flavor is great and it was filling. The benefit is the added water you get from the ice. I've lost over 30 lbs. since Jan 08 and this was a great help. Kept me from feeling cheated, satisfied my urge for something sweet and kept me surprisingly full. The price was much better than the "big name" replacements. I do my best to catch it on sale and have always felt it was well worth the money.

I use as a meal replacement for breakfast every day for over 12 weeks and have found no weight loss. It taste great.

I do intense advance zumba 3 times a week and run once a week.

This is just a meal replacement. It's not a product that will help you lose weight.

    Comments about GNC Total Lean Shake, Swiss Chocolate, 27 oz:

    I've been using this product for just a couple of days, but I have not had a problem so far and I don't mind mixing it with water. I bought it primarily for breakfast and a quick post-workout boost. I like that it's fairly low in sugar because I'm a reactive hypoglycemic and my blood sugar tends to plummit after a workout. I didn't buy this for weightloss. As long as I take 15-20 minutes to drink it, as you're supposed to with any meal or snack to maximize fullness, I don't feel hungry until 1-2 hours later, which works because I eat 6-7 times a day. I do advanced zumba 4x a week plus additional toning exercises and, so far, this is a good product for me.

      Comments about GNC Total Lean Shake, Swiss Chocolate, 27 oz:

      This Product was helpful @ being a snack or meal replacement. I use it before and after a workout or a snack before bed if I"m needing something. Usually I use a teaspoon of peanutbutter, a Bananna and ice and you have a Smoothie that tasey and healthy. It's only 100 Calories for 2 scoops , add Peanut butter and bananna And you've got a 300 Calorie Meal replacement. Wish It was $15-$20 instead of [$] . I know other meal replacements and Sahkes that are Way cheaper than this but doesnt taste as good.

        I drink a Lean Shake every weekday morning and try to drink one at lunch for days I don't have work lunches. For anyone who finds the consistency to be an issue, don't bother stirring it. Just pick up an inexpensive cocktail shaker--I pour in fat free milk or water & 2 scoops of mix, and shake it for 15 seconds. I drink that around 7am and I'm usually feeling good until noon, sometimes up to 2pm. If I truly committed to the entire plan(!), I think weight loss would come easy.

        Comments about GNC Total Lean Shake, Swiss Chocolate, 27 oz:

        I originally tried mixing the shake with water in a regular water bottle but it didn't mix very well, nor did it keep me very full for long. Mixed with water, it was more a snack than a meal. If I was really hungry I would have one before dinner to tide me over until I ate. When I used a blender and milk, I was able to have one for breakfast and that would work fine and I'd be fine until the later afternoon. I didn't notice a significant drop in my weight however. It taste great mixed with milk!

          This is the greatest tasting shake- and I have tried SO many of them out there!!! The chocolate tastes AWESOME- no artifical taste and no after taste! I have one for breakfast and it holds me over through the afternoon! I have to try to remember to have one for lunch too, since I'm not hungry at that time. The vanilla is GREAT too!!!

            Horrid texture, no matter how I mixed it was like drinking milk with sand in it. Taste was awful tried mixing with water, milk and choclate milk. Left me hungery with in an hour or two. Even slim fast lasted longer than that.

                Comments about GNC Total Lean Shake, Swiss Chocolate, 27 oz:

                A busy MD who is pushing 40, I tried several protein shakes for both regular meal replacement and "emergency rations" when work kept me from going to the cafeteria to get a meal. This is, by far the best tasting, most convenient shake available for those of us who want to lose or maintain weight. Because it tastes great mixed with just water, I keep a small wide mouthed sports bottle in my desk drawer with two scoops of powder in the bottom... a stop by a water fountain and voila, instant meal. No needing to add soy milk, ice cubes, frozen fruit, yogurt, cinnamon powder or other tricks to make it taste good. And hey, you ca't argue with success: with regular exercise and watching my diet, I have lost 40 pounds...
