I used to do Slimfast powder all the time but recently switched to Atkins ready made as it's a little quicker and easier.Use flavoured or plain vanilla. I would suggest tasting before you add sweetener. Some brands of those shakes are too sweet. I am currently having this in the evenings because it's too hot to cook anything
For Breakfast, frozen strawberries or bananas go great in the blender. Bananas and chocolate are also good.
I am a terrible breakfast eater but now that I am older I realize I "have" to get some calories in and hydro so I force myself to drink at least a bottle of water and a shake while doing eMail in the morning. Or I have found some Cliff bar flavors I like.
I also use the chocolate Atkins in my coffee to make a mocha - One less thing to buy even though there are cheaper options for this. It only takes a dash of the dark chocolate.
Frequently late in the day I will do vanilla, 1 1/2 teaspoons instant coffee and 3-4 ice cubes. I really love me some iced/frappe coffee. Sometimes I will throw a little mocha in for a Mocha Frappacino Latte - Way cheaper than Starsucks - LOL...
