The Lady Shake

This used to be such a good product! Years ago I lost 20kg using it. Now, it’s disgustingly sweet with all the added sweetener! I’ve tried putting berries and other things in it to lessen the blow, but seriously it’s over powering. Will be looking for a new option. Show details

Just writing my review for this even though I just had my first shake today, because I wanted to write a corrected portion size for The Lady Shake. I only used ONE scoop (the scoop is massive, and when I saw how much powder was in my shaker I thought of never putting two scoops in), with a tiny bit of milk and the rest of the way with water. It… Read more ·  1

tasted like vanilla pudding. I do not think that I could ever consume two scoops of this powder at all, one scoop was too much for me :O! Although my appetite might be lower than some other people using The Lady Shake, I'm 69 KGs trying to get down to 50 KGs.

Maybe the people who were having trouble with the sweetness of the shake, could have tried to use only one scoop of powder instead of the recommended two scoops.

I purchased the Vegan Lady shake in October in Priceline was on a 40% sale. 4 MTHS of using this so this is a good time frame to give an honest review of my experiences I did x 1 shake a day for breakfasts October till February I was looking for meal replacement as I am a shift worker and ease of use at work. I was told I could loose up to… Read more

1/2 kg per week using one shake from the company them selves.

I walk 40 mins per day & do weights in gym each day.

I will break down my experience Taste : ok not offensive but artificial taste

Digestion feeling : Vanilla not good for my stomach it give me pain or discomfort. Chocolate is fine no reaction

Feeling of satisfaction keeping you full : NO

I was told even unopened boxes can not return even with proof of purchase- so that is very poor customer service .

Would I recommend DEFIANTLY NOT

I have not lost any weight actually put a few Kilos on

I know muscle weights more than Fat (so don't come at me with that TLS)

Clothes size still the same not dropped

Am I disappointed YES

I feel that this area of meal replacements re just targeting people into a false sense of security.

I was going to throw them out but could not bear to loose that money I spent.

I will go back to my "TRUE PROTEIN SHAKES" IF I even want to.

My diet is good I don't eat junk food, but with Menopause weight I thought this just may help.

Ladies Please do it the correct way eat, exercise and don't rely on loosing your money to Meal Replacement shakes as I did.

Ok first thing is first. If you are trying shakes for the first time, they are all a bit weird and not the most satisfying. Lower your expectations in taste, texture and fullness satisfaction. If you are the type to not be flexible in this area…shakes are probably not for you. So I’m not vegan but I’m using the vegan Lady Shake because I’m on a… Read more

collagen supplement that I really love, and it’s hard to get shakes without collagen these days. Not trying to OD myself on it!! So vegan is perfect, I can either add my own collagen or continue putting it in my coffee. The remainder of the review is on taste, texture, satiation:

Taste: Only available in Chocolate and Vanilla. The chocolate and Vanilla flavours themselves are good. Not crazy sweet and not crazy fake. The vegan ingredients however do take over which is where your taste flexibility comes in. It’s not gross, it’s just not incredible. I make mine shaken with ice, the cold helps! The shake tastes not necessarily nutty, but it’s there, but more so has that vibe of green vegetables. After a few sips I fairly enjoy it overall, but I know I’m drinking the shake for a purpose. I’m not looking for a decadent milk shake, nor should anyone be. This is not what they are. Flavour I’m giving is a 3/5 it’s MORE than tolerable, it’s just not what I’d call yum. Initially I thought vanilla was going to be beyond gross, but once I drank it, I think it’s a touch better than the chocolate. I think both shakes would be great with a banana or berries, but for me I’m sticking to the packet only. Cold, cold water helps as I said and depending on your eating choices, cows milk or your choice of nut milk would very much help it. Again I’m using water, and still think 3/5 which is decent in my experience of other shakes and water. Other shakes can have better flavours but they are sickly sickly sweet and that’s a no from me. Texture: Yeah a bit grainy, not too bad, no worse than others out there I’d also stick with 3/5 here too. Doesn’t make me gag and doesn’t leave my teeth feeling weird. Satiation: Um depends on the day. I’m a bit more hungry today than I was after it yesterday but I did down a bottle of wine last night and the grelin overreaction to the alcohol has hit! Aside from that I feel like I can get on with my day and not eat. Again adding some whole fruits could help, and maybe milk, but for now I’m not doing that. I don’t think I’m any more hungry than I would be from another shake. I’m also not very hungry, and I do think it lasts a while. It’s weird its like I’m peckish for maybe 30 minutes and then after that I’m good for ages. I’ll also rate 3/5.

Overall, this shake is managing to do what I need it to do. It’s collagen free, I don’t mind the taste or texture, and I’m getting through the day without snacking or feeling like I’m starving. I do breakfast and lunch and then I eat a regular meal for dinner. Nutritionally it’s pretty good also, which is my most important factor aside from being able to physically drink it! A sachet in my bag is also perfect for night shift. I end up eating so much on nights and eating a full dinner at 3am. Now I’m just shaking it. It’s been a perfect supplement for that in itself. Wish I thought of shakes sooner.

Pretty good, if not a little bit bland – I've tried three flavours now - Chocolate, vanilla and banana - and these are my observations: > The consistency is thick, which is good because its more filling. I do find it to be a bit grainy but it's still overall pretty nice. > Taste is the biggest let down for me. None of the flavours I tried tasted *bad*, they just lacked flavour over all.… Read more ·  1

This is the one thing that has pushed me to seek other products to see if they're any better. > Cost-wise: If you buy these on special, the cost is pretty reasonable and certainly cheaper than buying meals! > Any side effects? None what-so-ever. I think if you're experiencing GI issues it might be due to a sudden increase in the amount of protein and fibre that you're ingesting. That being said, everyone is different. I've steadily lost 0.5-1kg a week having two shakes keeping calorie intake under about 1500.

Like many things, this is just a tool for weight loss. If you don't incorporate and add healthy habits, your progress won't last.

Working for me! – I’ve been on the vegan shakes (chocolate and vanilla flavours) one week and my clothes are definitely fitting looser. Im not jumping on the scales as that can be deceiving and inaccurate. I am a 57 yo, 157 cm and menopausal woman and over the last few years, the weight has gradually crept on. Nothing worked to help lose the weight despite me being… Read more ·  1

largely vegetarian and I’ve always been mindful of what I ate. I have the subscribed one sachet for breakfast with half water and half soy milk with half a banana and a couple of strawberries, blended well in the NutriBullet, and I have the same for lunch. I am comfortably full after both for 3.5+ hours and not requiring snacks largely before the evening meal. I’ve read some posts from people making negative comments about the taste of the sachets. For me, the taste is just fine. Definitely tastes of vanilla and chocolate and the consistency is not thick for me at all. I have tried other meal replacement shakes previously and none of them worked at all, I lost no weight. I’ll be staying on the Lady Shakes for as long as I can. Once at the desired weight, I can imagine using the shake for breakfast only and having a normal low cal/high protein lunch. Thanks so much Lady Shake, I was very disillusioned prior to finding this product ❤️❤️

I love my shakes they are amazing low calorie & everything you want in a meal replacement The customer service is also amazing Highly recommend this company & its products They have me for life now Show reply

I bought myself the coffee flavour and the choc berry bars (box of 10). I've only just started but I love the convenience. Swapping out two morning milk coffees for one shake, as yet I haven't developed any caffeine withdrawal headaches! I am excited to see how things change for me over the coming weeks. Show details ·  1

Tastes great and works! In 6 months - replacing breaky and lunch with these shakes (coffee is my favourite) and enjoying a Lady Bar when I need an afternoon snack - I have lost 11kg. Even better, my doctor can't believe that my cholesterol has dropped from 7.3 to 5.7 without medication! I won't be stopping now and look forward to my results in… Read more ·  1

another 6 months.Purchasing online from Lady Shake direct, I buy 3 packs and get 1 free - great value. Thanks, Lady Shake.

WAAAAAAY TOO SWEET - be wary Way too much sweetener. Imagine the taste of 15 tspns of artificial sweetener in a drink when you’d normally add 2 tspns. Pretty gross. To try to offset the sickly sweetness I’ve tried adding all these things - milk instead of water, adding cacao powder and faba bean protein, a little salt, a little Greek yoghurt… Read more

and now on top of all adding all these I’ve also just tried adding peanut butter powder and even with all these additions at once it’s still too sweet!!

I’m so disappointed I’ve wasted my money on this. I bought a 840g bag thinking it couldn’t be that bad, I’ve used other protein shakes before.

Also, using excess sweeteners isn’t good for insulin - can contribute to spikes even though not real sugar.

Finally, it’s too early to be certain TLS is the culprit, but it seems to be making me constipated :-( another protein shake I used to have would actually help me have more regular bowel movements.

I like how the shake keeps me full and how it has all the nutrients in it which is convenient. But I got really sick with constipation from it and had to see a Dr to help me. So disappointed I spent $138 on shake and bars and had this happen. Show details

Im sorry.. but NO! I was EXPECTING something so yummy and tasteful. (the reviews Have to be paid for) It has that artificial sweetener after-taste.. I have tried a variety of flavours, i dont know how women are saying it is "Delicious" its very uhmm Sandy? Consistency.. could not for the life of me finish one shake. Sorry But this Isn't it. Show details

Lady Shake chicken soup is foul. It doesn't taste remotely like chicken, and has a nasty aftertaste that reminded me of boiled mutton bones. I ended up giving away half a box of chicken and half a box of tomato (which was only marginally more tolerable) in the hope that it wasn't just me. Show details

I had a few mouth fulls hoping it was going to get better but I couldn’t stomach this lady shake, it’s the worst shake I have ever had in my life! Would not recommend! Show details

The shakes made me really ill. According to the company I was allergic to something in the shakes and mousses. I tried to enact the satisfaction guarantee and was told the warranty did not cover satisfaction once the product is opened. How you can try and be satisfied with a product you don't open is a conundrum I will never understand. I would… Read more

not recommend any of their products due to taste, texture and vomiting profusely. I suggest trying a single product and be very careful you are not allergic. I tried to work with the company and was ignored a long period of time. Paypal found in my favour in the end as Cranky Health did not respond in time. The customer service was disappointing and left a bad taste in my mouth along with the vomit.

I purchased the vanilla and chocolate vegan lady shakes as I am lactose intolerant. Omg they are disgusting. DO NOT BUY THEM. I tried adding berries, banana, peanut butter, everything…….they are still undrinkable. And sadly I’m stuck with them as you cannot return a part order….which is ludicrous, such a terrible way to run a business. Is that… Read more

because they know they taste disgusting, and by reading other reviews where the company has replied, they simply don’t seem to even care that people find them so bad and undrinkable.

I got 4 different flavours. Vanilla, triple chocolate hazelnut, mixed berries and mocha. All the flavours are really good apart from Mocha. That was the worst one ever. It’s not edible at all. It leaves a bad yucky taste in your mouth after a sips and doesn’t go away. Could not swallow that mocha flavour more than a sip and it’s a whole waste of money for that box. Show details

While the shake is very thick and hard to get down, after awhile i got use to it. Taste was nice but texture is subjective. I really disliked the hard bloated stomach I experienced it was painful and uncomfortable. I gave it 2 weeks and was so constipated I had to stop. Wish I had of read the reviews first. Show details

Tastes like thick sweet chalk water. Tried the caramel flavour and it was hard to get through even the first dose. Kept with it since i didnt want to waste my money, but all it did was leave me unsatisfied and nauseated. If you're Aus/NZ, up and go is much nicer, same calories (though admittedlyless protein), and actually satisfies my hunger unlike this shake.

I put 2 spoonfuls into 350ml of water as per the packet instructions. I found it to be very powdery in taste, drinkable but powdery, hopefully it will be worth it. Show details

Do not waste your money, taste like a cup of Diarrhea (not that I have had the pleasure) absolutely disgusting $44 down the drain - really bad aftertaste nothing like coffee, more like aniseed. My usual Optifast coffee was out of stock so I made the mistake of buying this - not sure how they actually sell it ongoing Show details

I couldn't stomach the taste of the Choc Caramel at all! It's horrible and tastes just like artificial sweetener. The thickness of this shake is also horrible. I gagged everytime I took a sip. I tried to get my money back, but that was a big fat NO! I can't even give it away!
