I loved it! It's too bad it's been discontinued. I used to add a bit of coconut powder and extra cocoa powder, making it taste like a creamy, chocolatey milkshake! Yeah sure, it made me fart like a drunken gritty truck driver who OD'd on onion & mayonnaise sandwiches all day, but totally worth it. It filled me up and pushed out the sludge in my gut to boot. I hope I can find a good replacement. Show details
Tastes quite good. Reasonable price – It's the new year and the resolution was to lose some weight so into the supermarket I went. I was intending to buy the Lady Shake but saw Nature's Way Slim right on half price special. I bought the vanilla. So far, what I do is pop the milk in my nutri blender ( which I also wrote a revue for. It is brilliant) then add the powder and in about 5… Read more
seconds it is beautifully blended. I found it is not too thick. I can drink it with a straw. It does fill me up till the next meal although that doesn't mean I could not fit in a few extras if I gave into temptation. The thing is though that the shake does not leave me so hungry I feel I have to have something extra. I quite like the taste of the vanilla one. Have not tried the other flavours. At the moment I am only replacing the lunch time meal so I still have a variety of food.
It looks to have a range of vitamins included in the shake but I'd say you still need to monitor that you are having fresh fruit and veggies to supplement it. I wouldn't trust it as a complete balanced diet and the instructions themselves advise it should only replace up to 2 meals a day.
So far I am happy, especially with the sale price. Am I losing weight? Too early to say but of course if I cut down kilojoules and stick with it, it will happen. I have done it before. Takes a few months. Having something easy like this to go to will save me from temptation when I am not feeling like making a salad or whatever.
Diarrhoea – Tastes great But can’t stop pooping. Stomach so sore. First time this happened I thought maybe it was unrelated but finally plucked up the courage to try it again and I’m having a real rough time again
Great taste, but so much flatulence – I bought this at my Woolies supermarket without doing any research. Vanilla. Great taste and with 99% skim milk left me feeling full. I'd lost 17kg in 5 months (100 down to 83), mostly due to long illness and quitting alcohol, 100% (don't miss it a bit!) Wanted to keep the weight off and get healthy with a portion-controlled diet. This shake was… Read more
to mix it up a bit, no pun intended. It just gave me terrible, acrid explosive gas, and a loose bowel. Fortunately I was at home (King's Birthday LWE), but I'd hoped to use it at work. I persevered thinking maybe my system woukd get used to it, but no change. I could've inflated the Hindenburg! I cant use it. Note to self: do the research before outlaying the hard-earned!
Taste really good but laxative – I like the taste so much compared to their protein powder but this one is laxative. Ended up going to toilet so many times. Please improve the recipe :( Show details
Happy customer – I've used all flavours of product over a 3 months. In combination with a vegetarian diet have lost 5 kg. My tip for using is I add coconut flour to increase my protein and fibre content. Show details
It tastes nice – It tastes delicious however I haven't lost any weight but I haven't put any on either, at first I had the runs and lots of gas but that soon went away, I drink it with no fat milk and it does fill me up for a little bit. I'm on my third now but will probably not buy again as I didn't see any change. Show details
Wish I had been able to try before purchase – Bought this over the weekend and tried it this morning. Not as filling as another brand I was able to try. Can really taste the artificial sweetener long after Id finished the drink. Wish I could have got a single sachet to try before buying a full size container. Show details
I love it so far yummy and I guess alot of gas lol and number 2 – enjoy it so yummy yummy yummy Strawberry my favorite Results I have to try more in few week now couldn't see much but I feel empty after drink 2hr If it work well I will back for review :) Show details
Why is Natures Way Slim Right so sweet – I only bought Natures Way in Woolworths as I had run out of Optifast which I usually drink & living in the country have to buy it on line. Natures Way is way too sweet so much so that I have to throw it. Why make it so sweet??? Show details
It’s a laxative – I have used optifaat and the lady shake. I saw the slim right chocolate for half price and tried one a day for four days - day by day my gas and diarrhoea got worse, lucky I was working from home. It bloated my stomach to triple the size normally!! It tasted fine but I can’t be farting and running to the toilet constantly. I can’t use this product. Show details
delicious – Bought Strawberry & Vanilla shakes from Coles Maryborough QLD & enjoy both. Actually prefer this strawberry to my Optifast shake. Haven't weighed myself as only been using for lunch under 2 weeks but not feeling deprived. No yuk side effects & shall hopefully weigh a few kilos less in the following months. Show details
Love the taste pity it gave me flatulence – The taste is really nice. I bought the strawberry flavour. I use almond milk with it and it has helped curb my hunger however the downfall is the gas. All day very loud stinky flatulence. Once ive finished the tub ill try another brand. Show details

Best and easy diet I have been on – I started slim right on the 8th August and lost 8lb in 10 days, it really works if you stay with 3 snacks under 100 cals 2 shakes and 1 meal of 600 cals. I’m not classed as over weight but wanted to lose 10 pounds to get back to my lowest weight for holidays. I have got all 3 flavours and love them all, I use 125 ml milk and 125 ml water with… Read more
ice, my friend and both my daughters are now going to buy it, very happy with my results and have loads of energy, I’m glad I tried it and will always have it now just incase a few pounds creep back on.
Lots of Flatulence - ALL day long!! – Picked up the chocolate flavour on special in Coles and tried it out with two shakes a day, with small snacks in between like fruit and nuts etc and a healthy meal for dinner. Drinking over 2ltrs of water a day and walking for an hour every day. Unfortunately the massive downfall for me is this shake give me stinky gas ALL day long !!! It… Read more
smells awful and acidic.
I just cant take this any longer if I want my family living in the same household as I LOL
Im going to try another brand with better reviews and no flatulence effect
Sorry.
Tried and tested very good – I have tried 2 flavours vanilla and chocolate both very tasty to the flavours and it really works if you do what they say is best.my doctor impressed cholesterol down good product recomending
It tastes pleasant – I have only tried vanilla, and I quite like the taste, but I am a vanilla person! I’ve only been using it for about a week and I haven’t been as strict as I probably should be, but I feel a bit slimmer (I never weigh myself, it’s cms that count for me!). I’ve got the drops and the gums and just found the detox and burn pills half price, so taking… Read more
all of them now. I agree with last poster that I do get wind and a bit of diarrhea, but I can live with it if it works. I’ll post again if anything dramatic happens!
Ok but gives me bad wind – I purchased the chocolate flavor at Coles as was on special this week. From a taste prospective OK and seems to satisfy my appetite but about an hour or so after drinking it I get terrible wind and then I have to use the bathroom. I find there is some sort of laxative effect on this product I will only use at home because really it’s not ideal for… Read more
me to sit at my desk and pass wind or have to run to the loo all the time a shame really as it’s not that bad a product except for my digestive system not agreeing with it
eww – Disgusting, too much sugar and leaves you starving. 2 milkshakes a day is like opening the gates for Diabetes . Did not lose even 1 cm of weight. Wasted my money .
20 kgs down in 3 months – I love this product. I never thought I would do a shake program as I thought they tasted disgusting, left you hungry and were to strict but I started on this 3 months ago and have lost 20kgs. I'm not hungry, the vanilla shake taste great and I eat whatever I cook the family for dinner just a smaller amount with more veggies. I was looking at… Read more
weight loss surgery as I still have another 30kgs to go but my doctor has told me that because I've lost so much using this product that I should continue doing it this way. I'm hoping to be at my goal weight in 5-6 months. Thank you natures way!
Great! – I have just started the chocolate slim right shake so far so good. I replace breakfast and lunch with snacks in between and have a healthy dinner. Also exercising i hope to see results im not over weight just looking to tone up and replacing these meals is keeping me full and helping with not snacking on the nasties lol :)
Excellent ! Lost 18 kilos !! – Loved this pea protein product. I got used to the taste & texture. Tried both the vanilla & chocolate flavours. It gave good "weight loss" results for me. I lost 18 kilos. Too bad I can't locate it in the shops anymore. I prefered the 21 sachets in the box to the newer Slimright plastic tubs. Hope Naturesway Slimright will bring back a similar product in the sachet/box version again.

Absolute crap – Artificial sugar which is addictive and leaves an awful after taste. Wish i had if realised the change before i wasted my money on the crap!!! Just because you claim less sugar doesnt make the artificial sweetener better for you.
Great old product – What has changed in the new product 30% less sugar has a slight after taste and slight feeling sick the old product did not have this and I have been using for 8 months and lost 14kgs. I got hold of an old product and has no problem with it thank you
Sore stomach – The vanilla flavour gives me a sore stomach & bloating for the next 24-72 hours. It's just awful. It's definitely caused by this product as every time I've drunk it, a stomach ache follows. The Chocolate protein version doesnt cause this but it also hasn't helped me lose more than 2kgs so really a waste of money.
nice tasting drink – Firstly its a nice tasting shake with milk, I used full cream milk because I love it! It has a lot of vitamins minerals, but its full of sugar and what does sugar do!! It makes you fat! Anyway I drank this only and ate nuts and bananas with 1 main meal and lost a great amount of weight, 2 years later I'm still at a great weight and I eat fairly well. So with discipline it does work
Good Result – I was very pleased to discover this product in 2015, and achieved rapid and good results on a strict VLCD. My stomach was able to tolerate the pea protein much better then the dairy/whey based products. I consumed the sachets mixed with ice and water in a shaker. I was able to maintain the rapid weight loss I achieved under this program by… Read more
continuing to consume one sachet a day with 2 other normal meals.
I have since heard in 2017 that Pharmacare (NSW ) have since discontinued manufacturing this product.
So far, so good! – I started the Slim Right shakes 2 weeks ago today. So far so good I think! Brekky - Slim Right shake with 125ml water and 125ml Almond Milk or Soy Milk. 2 or so hours after that I have my soy latte coffee... I cant quit my coffee, I have tried lol. Then ill have my shake for lunch with the same water/milk. Then if I feel hungry between lunch… Read more
and dinner, ill have some fruit or a yoghurt.
My dinner Ill have my serve of vegies with chicken or fish. I drink water throughout the day to help keep me full!
I dont like the idea of 'diets' let alone shakes. But ive been unable to exercise for the past 2 years with knee problems and surgery. I need to lose a little weight to help keep pressure off my knee. I wouldnt call myself fat or obese but I have my problem area around my thighs and legs. Ive found this shake good so far! I don't weigh myself cause I hate looking at my weight lol but my belly feels so much lighter and not so bloaty and im noticing small changes in my face. Im 27 by the way!
SlimRight Shakes - Nice Taste and Value – I drink SlimRight with skim milk and have the vanilla, chocolate and raspberry ketones flavours - all taste very nice. I zap the drink in a milkshake maker for around 10 seconds which gives it a good mix. These meal replacements are great with a piece of fruit for breakfast or to have as a healthy snack.
I Lose Weight Finally!!! but .. taste bad – I done lots of research and decided to go with Optifast VLCD from Priceline at first due to cheer reviews. i brought 3 boxes and replace 2 meals a day = 18 sachet x 3 boxes = 54 meals / 2 meals = 27 days. While it tasted GREAT with water but i didn't get any result and my weight went up by a kg range or so... Also I didn't realise it but it has… Read more
lactose in Optifast product so my ass got burn a couple times a day (or more) due to diarrhea.
So i decided to try different product.. picked up a box of Slimright VLCD Chocolate from Chemist Warehouse.
At first i made a mistake by drinking it straight water (because that's what i normally do with Optifast) and it taste so crap... anyhow, the following meal replacement I drunk with Liddle Skim Milk Free Lactose...it still taste bad but I kept going.. day after i felt really clean and the toilet visit was so much more pleasant, it was a healthy poop lol.
Beside that i kept going for about a week and half now and i dropped 1.2kg + went from 102.8 in belly waist to 98.4. I'm very happy camper right now!
I had 1 skim milk carton with Slimright VLCD chocolate after that i switched it back to water. while it taste crap but the product give an excellent results + the ingredient they use is quite clean as well. Highly recommend for those who are willing to do the work and don't give yourself the excuse of 'argh.. this tasted crap, i'm gonna stop it'.
PS. I sit in front of computer most of the time, i *may* exercise (HIIT) once a week of about 15 mins, if I do, during the testing phase above, the only time i walk out are either meeting with clients or get food to eat. Very minimum activity on my life here.
I gave 4 stars because 4 stars from the great and clean product. 0 star from crappy taste of this Slimright VLCD. If they improve their taste, i'll bump it to 5 immediately! Their support both over the email and phone was good as well 4/5.
Perfect – I have tried every diet there is, nothing worked, stated this 6 weeks ago i was 92 kg. I have 2 shakes a day, 2 snacks and meal at night. I do 10 minute cardio burst zumba 4 times a week, today i weigh 78 kg, stick to the program and it works.
this works if you follow the instructions – I have been using this for some time now. I have tried many other shake brands such as Fat Blaster and the Aldi Brand. If you read the small print you will see they are high in sugar, although Aldi have recently released a powder with lower sugar and I haven't tried this yet. I was having this replacing two meals a day and was not feeling… Read more
hungry. Then having a healthy dinner. And I was still drinking alcohol. The ONLY reason it started working was when I stopped drinking, even though I was having vodka and soda with fresh lemon! I have nor lost nearly ten kg. And I walk the dog most days, you do have to exercise. There is no quick fix and it takes time,be patient and take care of yourself.
Gritty – The flavour is good but it is very gritty. Does anyone know how to get rid of the gritty taste? I really want to stick to this but don't know how long i could handle the texture.
Feeling full without the bloat! – Have tried most weight loss shakes with failure! Most did not fill me up so I ate more while others left me with bloating and stomach cramps. SlimRight VCLD did not! I felt full after my breakfast shake and full with the lunch shake. When it came to having a small dinner, I did not feel liking snacking after like I usually would have. The creamy… Read more
vanilla flavour is more of a nutty sweet taste(it does contain chia seeds so this could be the reason) so don't expect the usual flavour of other shakes that taste like flavoured milk( these usually contain high sugar, SlimRight is very low in sugar, which is why I might feel fuller) and it supports probiotics digestion( bye bye bloat!) That is why I think this shake works for me! I do however drink lots of water which is recommended, and I add a piece of fruit when I am at work to keep up energy levels.
