Slim Fast

OK, I am not trying to find a weight loss shake. While I could stand to lose weight, I'm just trying to find something quick in case I get stuck somewhere and I get hypoglycemic and can't get a meal.

I tried the Boost high protein, but it made me REALLY sick. :ph34r: Too much milk protein at once, I think, or drinking it fast was a bad idea. Either way I'm not drinking it again.

I'm looking for more of a soy base if I can find one. Yes, I know soy may be bad for me, but it's not an everyday thing, and eliminating soy is not a priority for me right now.

Slim fast won't guarantee any of their products as gluten-free, but does anyone drink them without problems?

I really need a shelf stable meal-replacement shake.

Thanks! :)

Aren't some of the carnation instant breakfast things ok? I know some of them come in cans. You would have to call and check on the gluten-free status, but it's worth a shot.

I also saw some "Healthy Mom" shakes in the baby aisle that were labeled gluten-free... you don't have to be a mom to drink them, they are just extra energy type shakes, helpful for any woman...

I drink Slim Fast Rich Chocolate Royale Optima shakes with no problem. I buy the 30-pack at Sam's Club. I need something to grab on the run when I have to work opening at the store, and this takes care of the hunger until I can get a meal. It doesn't give me the "sugar shakes" like candy bars do.

Hope this helps! Not sure if that would be too much milk or not......they list the ingredients on the site.

I think the Carnation Instant Breakfast rich chocolate is gluten free. Not the milk chocolate one. They're pretty good, too.

      I so appreciate you talking about this. Honestly I’m so sick the most part of the last 15 years, I’m going to cross reference your list with my own. Celiac since 24 yrs old diagnosed in 1997. I just saw a specific celiac GI specialist at the celiac disease center in Chicago and when I told her all the food reactions I was having she said she believed me but there was no clinical evidence to support my reactions(I felt so unseen, she recommended I see a gut psychologist, what the heck). I react with severe body aches to bloating and dizziness to exhaustion:  most lectins except berries and low lectin veg, no eggs, no nightshade veg, no dairy, all carbohydrates including no gluten-free...

      Curious if I should quit my job

      By ohmichael · Posted

      Thank you both for your input! trents: yes I completely agree, it's simple anatomy. The walk-in doctor I saw even said to me, "you cannot get exposure or get sick if it only got in your respiratory system" to which I replied, "If I inhaled it, it's in the mucous I swallow that leads to my gut." I was honestly baffled I had to explain that to her. Thanks for your comments! Scott Adams: Thanks for your advice, yes I agree I think that's ultimately what I have to do especially while times are getting tougher in this current economy! Hopefully I find something new and equitable or better, in a quick manner! Please send prayers and best wishes for me to find a new job quickly, I wore the N95 masks today...

      Advice please

      Parent-to-parent, I hear your exhaustion and worry loud and clear – what you’re describing goes far beyond typical toddler troubles. Your daughter’s screaming night pain, terrible bloating, stalled growth, and constant infections are textbook red flags for celiac disease or another serious gluten-related condition. While her blood test came back negative, there are critical reasons not to rule it out yet. First, celiac tests are notoriously unreliable in kids under 3 – their tiny immune systems often don’t produce enough antibodies to register on standard blood work, especially if she wasn’t eating consistent gluten beforehand (which you mentioned was a struggle). Her iron deficiency alone is...
