Hiya..
When I purchased this diet, I went for the starter pack, which had all the flavour shakes in & a couple of the soups, so I got an idea of flavours & can work out which ones I like or dont like.
To be honest the soups all taste (& smell) the same, they are very peppery but I think that this is probs so you get a good kick of flavour in them to not make you want anything else..lol
The shakes are GORGEOUS & as a confirmed chocoholic I can vouch for the choc variety ones!! There are also vanilla, strawberry & banana flavours too. I'm not so keen on the banana flavour but they are ok.
I found that when I went to our local supermarket, that their own brand slimming soups were a good alternative to the celeb slim soups. Plus the added bonus is that they are cheaper. They have less carbs & fat per 100ml than the celeb slim ones, so I have changed to those & got used to having that soup now for my lunch.
I have never eaten breakfast (ever since becoming an adult after years of force fed ready brek by my mum when I was younger) but I now have a small apple.
Mid morning, I make something from the celeb slim recipe book & have a piece of that (its an allowable snack) then lunchtime I have just my soup.
Mid afternoon I have a piece of fruit, then for my "proper" evening meal I cook up something from my celeb slim recipe book & there are some nice things in that. My hubby has the same as me for evening meal but I just add extras to his, like potatoes, etc, so that it fills him more. I have to cook something different for my 13 year old son though but I find I can use the same kind of ingredients from my recipe book & just cook him something more filling (he is like a blooming bean pole & certainly does not take after me)
Then later on in the evening time, I have my celeb slim shake, which is a much better idea for me, as evening times were when I started to pick at rubbishy foods (bags of crisps/buscuits) I am really enjoying it & dont feel like I am on any kind of diet, plus I feel like I am eating much more healthier now & dont feel the need to pig out later on stodgy food.
I am hoping that by doing this, in the long term my body & stomach will become used to the better food it is getting & that my mind will be conditioned to that way of thinking, so I wont think twice about leaving crappy foods out of my diet.
At the end of the day.... Any diet works if we eat less & exercise, we can all give excuses for not losing weight but eventually the buck stops with us & we are the ones who can do something about it all, that is unless there is some medical reason behind our weight.
Good luck with your diet & let me know how you are gettting on
