Hi

I travel a lot for work and trying to be prepared in foods I take for breakfast and lunch is at times proving tricky.
I read in the book that you can have a meal replacement shake for breakfast and lunch and then a meal in the evening.
What shakes does anyone use please? I want to make sure that I get the right thing, though I am not doing the diet to lower my blood sugars specifically. I am not diabetic nor pre diabetic.
I just need to lose weight, and finding it all so tasty!

Thanks
Chloe

I have ordered a low carb/sugar protein shake that I will use in combinations with meals . will start the diet as soon as they arrive.

Hi Chloee
Just spotted this thread.
Although some people think they are not a good idea (too processed/not real food etc.) I do use two shakes a days when working away and all that would be available otherwise is sandwiches or other high starchy carbs like chips! (didn’t really want to mention them, like saying something rude!) I use shakes from a company called Certaslim. They allow you to purchase on line and they are low carb (about 12/13g per shake) and low calorie (about 120/135 calories). They are mixed with water and therefore easy to use when travelling. I then have an evening meal using the remainder of my calories and carb g, making sure there is lots of good fat and protein. this is working for me as I have a chaotic and very busy life and it means I only have t think about one meal!
Hope this helps.

I found 3 low arb ones went for this one as it was on offer bogf
Per 35g:
Energy: 539 kJ / 129 kcal
Fat: 1.9g
of which saturates: 1.1g
Carbohydrates: 2.8g
of which sugars: 1.3g
Fibre: 2.6g
Protein: 24g
Salt: 0.15 g

Gtx4Jay – that looks like an exceptionally good protein content and very low carb. what brand is it?

I found 3 on this site

I went with the Grenade Hydra 6 as it was on offer with the code and bogf the Phd I will try next was a good low carb/sug and Optimum Health I have tried in the past was good value but more carbs.

The only times I get the shake’s is when there is no alcohol to drink! 🍷🍻🍹 cheers.
