Slim fast or another powder?

I just had the idea of buying one of these powders you mix with water or milk (?) and have instead of breakfast or dinner. I think there is one called "slim fast". Anyone tried this or any other? Do they work? I would love one that takes away the hunger Grin, who wouldn't.
Thanks.

Am on slim fast at the mo which is a powder you add skimmed milk to but they are pretty boring and you need shed loads of willpower, however, if you do stick with it then you will see results! Have lost 5lbs in 2 weeks on it (with naughty extra wine & choc weekend treats)!!

Good Luck

I have lost 3lb per week on average with weightwatchers. Normal food and no powdered gunk necessary.

If you want something to take the hunger away you might do better with Herbalife products?

I started it last week. The smoothies are lovely as are the cereal bars, must admit I have started substituting though, and just counting the calories.

I lost 5 lbs in a week, but am going a bit under the recomended calories!
