Basically as the title says...is Slim Fast any good? I need to kick start myself and was thinking of giving it a whirl. Will I be starving? I'm not that good at hungry!

I did Slimfast for two weeks to kickstart my weightloss journey early last year because, at BMI 36 & 210 lbs, I had no clue what smaller portions and feeling "full" on them actually were and felt like. After two weeks, my mind and tummy adjusted to fewer calories and I was able to ditch the shakes and focus on normal eating with the help of MyFitnessPal & calorie counting. That really helped me learn about normal portion sizes. Went on to lose 5 stones and am now a healthy 23 BMI (with help of 5:2 too). But my point is, Slimfast helped recalibrate me mentally and physically in the beginning.

Bssh it sounds like you used it for a kick start to yr new regime and used SF in a sensible way.
Well done on the 5 stones.
