George Foreman's Life-Shake Versus Slim Fast Shakes

Ann Siper
George Foreman's Life-Shake and the Slim Fast Shake are two of the most popular choices in the diet and weight loss market. Both the Life-Shake and Slim Fast advertise they can help you loose weight with a reduced calorie diet.

So, who wins the battle of the George Foreman Life-Shake and the Slim Fast Shake? Take a look at what I found:

Life-Shake Versus Slim Fast Shake: Price

Ok, less expensive always wins with me. Sorry, but I am rather cheap when I can be. Of course, sometimes you get what you pay for.

A month supply of George Foreman's Life-Shake will cost you $60. A container of Slim Fast powder mix will cost you about $7 depending on where you live. You will need 2 containers of Slim Fast to equal a month, so make it $14. Both last about the same amount of time, so you do the math.

On the other hand, the Life-Shake offers all the vitamins you will need in one day, so you can eliminate the costs of vitamins. While Slim Fast does offer a ton off nutrients and vitamins in their shake, it is not completely a vitamin replacement.

So, for lowest price Slim Fast wins, but for overall value, I have to give it to the Life-Style Diet shake. Mostly because I am sick of swallowing vitamins and love this alternative.

Life-Shake Versus Slim Fast Shake: Taste

So, neither one of these taste like a chocolate shake from the local ice cram shop - no matter what they say. Slim Fast has the worst vitamin taste of the two. That is my opinion. We all have different taste buds, so you can decide which is the least disagreeable to you.

The interesting feature of the Life-Shake is that they come with a recipe book that allows you to mix it with foods that you might normally eat, like oatmeal. Oatmeal is pretty low calorie as well.

Life-Shake Versus Slim Fast Shake: Results/ Weight Loss

Honestly, you will loose weight with both products. You are simply eliminating calories from your daily routine, which always results in weight loss in healthy people. Both of these products offer up nutrition through the addition of vitamins in the shakes, but the Foreman shake will give you the biggest energy boost.

I should say it gave me the biggest energy boost. If you need that extra edge to get you motivated and off the couch, then this is the winner for you. If you are on a budget and saving money motivates you, then check out Slim Fast.

You need to follow their recommendation for diet plans and stick to them or you will see no weight loss at all. Personally, I lost mor weight with the Foreman shake.
