I received my free trial of the double chocolate Forza shake. I'd never heard of the brand so was intrigued to see what it was like and if it was any different to the other shake meal replacements that I have tried, like slimfast and 5:2 shakes.

 

I liked the design as it seemed funky and didn't mind having it on my counter top. I decided to start my trial on one of my rest days. I weighed and measured myself to track my progress. Unfortunately my first go was quite lumpy so wasn't too keen on the texture, but once I got myself one of those shaker bottles the shake was quite thick and creamy. I did find that the flavour had a slight metallic taste which was a little off putting.

On my first day I found it quite hard having just the two shakes throughout the day but when I was at work it was great as I was busy and not constantly thinking about food (I do that alot!!) Also when meeting friends/family it was hard to stick to the plan.

After a weeks worth of the trial I lost about 2lb, I was expecting a bit more but maybe my water intake wasn't enough and my 1 meal probably wasn't as calorie controlled as it should of been.

So my conclusion is that it worked really well on my work days so this could be something I could incorporate into my lifestyle but I did find it hard with the restrictions of a shake diet. I did find just 200ml didn't feel like it was enough. I would recommend it to friends as it seems like a fairly well priced product but the lack of food is probably just not for me!

Forza shake it slim!

Now first of all, when I applied to do this trial I was 32 weeks pregnant with identical twin boys and already have a 4yo daughter. I was desperate to find something for after having my boys to get me back to my pre-baby body. (no more kids for me!) When I was picked for the trial I was over the moon! (I never get picked for anything!).
I hadn’t heard of Forza Shake-It-Slim before but was so excited to get started. I did as most people would do and researched them and there were good results which came back so all good.

I’ve tried slimming shakes before but to my own laziness I haven’t seen it through. This time I really wanted to see it through.

The Mummypages team have been amazing at keeping in touch and keeping me up to date with my trial.
I chose the double chocolate flavour as I have a sweet tooth. When it arrived I was surprised at how small the product was however when I opened it and started to use the powder, it goes a long way! The flavour was okay - wasn’t as chocolatey as I would have liked but it wasn’t unpleasant in any respect.
It was so easy to be able to fit this into my routine as I don’t have much time in the morning due to school runs and feeds etc so it was great to be able to fit in something to keep me going and especially when I don’t have many hands to eat anything!
The best benefit to it however was the weight loss! Throughout the trial I have lost 8 pounds, now that might not seem much to some people but it’s a lot to me especially as I went back to my pre-baby weight after having my twins.

I would definitely recommend it to anyone who has a busy lifestyle and is always on the go and needs something to fit in. I won’t be purchasing it at the moment but when the new year comes around I would definitely try it again and maybe try some new flavours to go with it.
Overall I would rate it a 8/10. Thanks,

After trying all sorts of diets after having my daughter and not being able to stick to any forms of weight loss. I was delighted to be picked for Shake it Slim and thought there was no loss to give it a try. With still holding on to baby weight even with my daughter being 3 years old I was desperate to loss some weight.

When the shakes arrived the packaging was colourful and is something I would pick up and try. After trying the strawberry shakes they were delicious and didn't get boring at all.

As most parents with children and working I constantly skipped meals because of time, these were so easy to make up and consume when ever I had time. I was consuming 2 shakes, 1 for breakfast and 1 for lunch with a sensible meal on the evening I was finding that this was filling and very easy to stick to.

I was delighted to find that after doing the shake it slim for 5 days (1 tub) I had lost 6 lb :).

I will definitely carry on with the these and try all flavours. Recommend this to anyone that doesn't have time to have set meals or follows a busy lifestyle.

Thoroughly delighted with the product!
Overall score 9/10

Thanks,

Thanks for letting me take part in this trial - I hadn't heard of Forza Shake it Slim until I saw it on Mummypages. I have tried other meal replacement drinks before, with varying degrees of success.

I try to keep an eye on my weight, but between one thing and another, it always ends creeping back on. Busy life, and limited time for exercising, and then I get so annoyed with myself and lack any motivation to do anything at all.

Starting off a diet is always the difficult part and I find if I have a helping hand, it gets me motivated for the first few weeks and makes it that little bit easier. I've always liked to do these shakes for that reason.

I think the Forza shake is quite pleasant, especially in comparison to other shakes I've tried - I had the strawberry one, and it did exactly what it said on the tin and it was very easy to incorporate in my day to day routine.

Being on a calorie controlled diet is the only way I successfully lose any weight, and with Christmas looming, I'm hoping to be down 5-7lbs. I'll allow myself treats over Christmas and then in the new year, I'll be back on the straight and narrow, I don't want to go into the new year with more weight to lose.

I would recommend to other mums looking to shed a few lbs.

Before the trial I wasn't aware of Forza - never heard of it or any of their products. I trialled the Double Chocolate flavour 'shake it slim' and it tasted nice (ok, it didn't taste like a double chocolate milkshake but I didn't expect it to!).

 

I'd never tried a meal replacement shake before so I was really surprised that I could have a shake for breakfast and for lunch and not feel hungry. I had enough energy to run after my two little ones without feeling tired or light headed.

 

I found it really convenient to fit it into my lifestyle. I prepared it in a shaker with milk and would drink it whilst I prepared my little ones meals.

 

I've been on Forza for two weeks and in that time I've lost 4lbs. I'm really pleased with my loss as I wasn't particularly strict with my evening meal.

 

I would definitely recommend Forza to those who can't get to the gym regularly and need to lose a bit of weight. I'll definitely be purchasing a tub for after Christmas when I need to lose my Christmas podge!

I’ve been using the Forza shake now for two weeks, I’ve had the strawberry one.

It's very easy to make up & even easier to have during the working week, it took me a few days to get used to not having anything else before my tea.

After a few days I was very excited that I was keeping up with the whole routine. I have tried other brands of shakes before & this one tastes just as nice, no after taste either which is always a plus.

To be honest I would recommend it other women after shedding some pounds as it does work if you stick with it. I’ll continue and hope to achieve more weight loss.

Thank you for letting me trial the all new Shake it Slim product, I was very intrigued when I saw the Twitter feed pop up. I have used their other meal replacement product so I am aware of the brand & products.

I gave the Vanilla Ice Cream shake a whirl. The packaging that it came in I really liked it never stood out in my kitchen as a diet shake.

I decided to start on a Friday after I weighed in at my local slimming group. It was very easy to prepare as I already had a shaker. It tasted of vanilla & I couldn't taste the almond milk I use which is a great plus. It was a little too thick & Powdery for me so I used more milk in the others. The scoop was a life saver.

Fitting this into my day was really easy at first - I could have the 2 shakes during the day, then have a reduced calorie meal. However, the instructions were/are very vague it just says an energy restricted diet. I understand everyone is different but some guidance should help.

I ended up only having the shake in the morning just because that was the easiest option for me. At the end I maintained my weight.

Yes I would recommend this product.I actually have my eye on the other flavours like Cookies n Cream, Caramel latte, Strawberry, mint to try.

I was picked to trial the summer dreams Shake it Slim and after trying other shake products I was sceptical as to whether I could stick to it.

The product looked attractive in the container and to be honest I couldn't wait to get started. I'd never heard of the brand before so I thought nothing to lose.

I started on the Monday morning and found the shake actually tasted really nice, I then went off to work with a shake for lunch. I found that by about 12 o clock I was actually hungry so had the second shake which lasted me until dinner time.

I wasn't very optimistic that I'd lost weight so to stand on the scales and find out I'd lost 2lb I was really pleased.

I did the trial over 2 weeks and in those 2 weeks I lost around 5lb. I was already a member of a slimming club so just used that to have my evening meal.

I really enjoyed the shake and would be quite happy to use it again although I don't think I could do it long term because it just didn't satisfy me.

I wasn't aware of the Forza brand before I began the trial, so I'd never tried anything they have produced or sold. However I had used another mainstream brand offering a similar product in the attempt of losing weight to help me towards my goal to begin fertility treatment.

I'd previously used Slimfast products - starting with their tinned powder option but opted for their ready made liquid bottles due to convenience and taste.

During the trial I opted for the Double Chocolate flavour. The smell of the product was very artificial and quiet off putting when opening. It didn't taste of chocolate and wasn't nice to drink. I had real problems trying to use the supplement due to its powdery texture and most of all the taste. I tried to mix, whisk and shake it up as much as I could to taste more appealing but failed miserably.

 

After 3 days I couldn't stomach it any longer, I was dreading having to drink it. It was a real shame as I was really eager to see if it would assist in weight loss. I didn't notice any weight loss, I expect this was down to the short time I used it for. During the days I used it, I was very hungry between shakes, it didn't seem to fill me up enough between breakfast and lunch for example.

I personally wouldn't recommend the product due to my personal experience. So therefore I wouldn't purchase the products in the future. My main reasons are down to the smell and taste.

Thanks for opportunity and for choosing me to take part.

Thank you very much for choosing me to take part. I really enjoyed testing the Shake it Slim.
I tried this just before Christmas, and was so glad I did, it set me up really well for the festive season, in that I was already being careful of what I'm eating, and i also managed to lose a few pounds beforehand.
The shakes are easy to incorporate in your day to day routine, especially if you're a busy mum. I can't say I loved the flavour but then again, it's not the worst one I've had, and it was easy to get used to.
All in all I lost 6lbs, which was brilliant.
Would recommend to other mums if you just need to get back on track. Will use again when I need it.
