I used this as a quick meal in the morning. As some of the other reviewers have mentioned, don't mix it with a spoon because it'll be grainy; use a shaker cup or a blender. Also, if you mix it with milk instead of water, it fills you up for much longer and tastes like a vanilla birthday cake. Delicious! I would definitely recommend it.

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. The vanilla was the worst I suffered through, very weak flavor, no body to it. Maybe a little better if it was thicker to cover the grainy textures?
Comments about GNC Total Lean Shake, Vanilla Bean, 27 oz:
I use it in a blender with milk, ice cream and Malted Milk powder. I would like the vanilla to be stronger but it is OK.

Comments about GNC Total Lean Shake, Vanilla Bean, 27 oz:
I love this protein powder! I have lost 3 pounds in about a week. I use this product as a meal replacement for breakfast and lunch. I add cinnamon to the powder, and I think it is delicious! I drink the first one at 5:30 am, and I get hungry around 10 am, which is perfect because I have a break at work at that time. My only complaint is that I've noticed an increase in having to go to the bathroom. I already drink water pretty often, so this is from this protein drink. I'm a teacher, so having to go to the bathroom so often is problematic. However, I'm not annoyed enough by that to stop use! I love it! Highly recommend it.

Comments about GNC Total Lean Shake, Vanilla Bean, 27 oz:
This flavor is awful.
Of the other flavors, my favorite is the chocolate-peanut-butter.
Generally, I prefer to use unsweetened Almond milk rather than water to mix with these powders. I use these as my breakfast meal replacement. Fast, filling... just don't buy this flavor!

Comments about GNC Total Lean Shake, Vanilla Bean, 27 oz:
For the people who gave negative reviews, you obviously did not read the directions. It recommends eating something small with the shake ie. fruit or a piece of toast. I've found this combo keeps me full until lunch time. Also, I always get the Swiss chocolate. I mix it in COLD WATER (as it says) in a shaker. A spoon probably wouldn't work well in this case. I've tried cookies n cream flavor too. I wasn't a big fan. It's not terrible at all, but it tastes watered down. The Swiss chocolate is pretty tasty. As far as helping me lose weight, I can't really tell if its helping or not. Most of that stuff is all mindset anyway.

Used the product as directed but it was too gritty so I had to compromise and add fruits, almond milk, and or vanilla yogurt. Know it defeats the purpose but for the price, I make sure to use it.

Comments about GNC Total Lean Shake, Vanilla Bean, 27 oz:
The flavor is really smooth, and not too sweet. I find it works best as a meal replacement when you eat a piece of fruit with it, because it isn't quite as filling as a high protein shake can be.

Comments about GNC Total Lean Shake, Vanilla Bean, 27 oz:
After I work out, I usually have a shake to curb any appetite I might have. It's a great supplement if you find yourself in the mood for a snack and want something a bit healthier than what you would find in the vending machine.
As a meal replacement, mix two scoops (48 grams) with 8 oz cold water. Mix well. Drink two shakes daily while following the provided Meal and Exercise Plan.
