The Lady Shake - Vanilla

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… Read more ·  1

thought of never putting two scoops in), with a tiny bit of milk and the rest of the way with water. It 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 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

They're better than I anticipated! – I have tried all the flavours and I didn't like the Mint Chocolate, the Caramel was fine but strangely had a strong cinnamon taste to me which was odd but was super sweet as was the banana. But the Vanilla was amazing which surprised me, it almost tasted like a birthday cake. I love the coffee and the strawberry is good if not a bit too sweet but… Read more

I solve that by mixing them, like banana and chocolate or strawberry and chocolate which is good and it helps mix things up a bit. I do think the shakes are a bit on the thick side but I assume that's due to the high protein content so it's expected so I just add 400ml of water and it still retains its flavour. I've noticed though, if you shake it too much or use a blender it gets much thicker so I wonder if that added agitation increases the viscosity? Sort of like making whipping cream from cream? So, I only shake it enough to make sure it's combined and I stop and it doesn't seem so thick. But, I don't find it exactly unpleasant either. And don't let it sit and then drink it or make it beforehand, I did that once and it thickened a LOT more than was pleasant. But really, they're weight loss shakes not McDonald's shakes so give them a break, for what they are they're good. I would suggest buying the mixed trial pack to try flavours before buying the larger bags because I hated flavours I thought I'd love and vice versa.

I started losing weight the first week, 3 kg, and have lost about 2kg each week since. I have one for brekky, then a snack, one for lunch, a snack and then a decent dinner that I enjoy but that's still healthy. I make sure the snacks are healthy and that at least one is high fiber and that I get plenty of fiber at dinner, this and 2L of water helps to keep me from getting constipated. I don't feel deprived or starving between meals, just normal hungry and I hardly ever feel hungry in the evening now. I feel like I have more energy and I don't feel sluggish or shaky. I have an injury that I got 3 years ago that keeps me from being as active as the average person which caused my weight gain so even without a lot of exercise (just casual daily walks of 30+ minutes) I'm losing weight. I can see how people would not lose weight if your snacks are too calorie dense or you're having drinks with high sugar or calories but if you've made changes to your overall eating you definitely will lose weight. Of course it takes willpower and determination but this has been pretty enjoyable and I can't see not sticking to it long term till I lose the weight I gained and probably still on it to maintain. For people saying it's expensive, it's about 2.70ish per meal which is cheap compared to what the cost of groceries is nowadays but it's worth the money to get yourself healthy and feeling better about yourself. I would recommend these to anyone but like any change of lifestyle, you have to come at it with the right mindset.

Swapped to Vegan – I have been using Vanilla Lady Shake for a year for nutrition (one serving a day) but have just gotten serious about the weight loss aspect so I am taking it twice a day with one main meal at lunchtime. I am not hungry and had lost 3kgs in first week. I mix the powder in a cup with grounded flaxseed, cinnamon, and mint leaves then pour it into… Read more

chilled cold water and bullet mix it. After 8 weeks using I started to feel bloated and constipated (thinking it was the whey) I changed to the Vegan using the same process of mixing for the last 2 weeks while still loosing weight by another 6kgs. Because I am not starving I can discipline the appropriate amount of food at lunchtime. I have now worked out how to keep a happy gut healthy and dealt with the issues by looking at low fodmap foods. Weight myself this morning, I have lost a total of 12kgs in 3mths with the diet and exercise. Very Happy with the product and am grateful for the buy 4 for the price of 3 to benefit on payment. Not a one size fits all. I twicked it to suit and work for me and am very happy with the results.

Don’t fall for the [Content Removed] – I had to give 1 star to process the review but deserves none. Try a sample first DO NOT FALL FOR BUY 3 GET 1 FREE because you think you are getting a bag for free. I am lactose intolerant so needed the Vegan Shake. Worst thing I have ever had in my mouth! The taste is like the bottom of the garbage disposal and the texture is a grainy sludge. Have… Read more

to blend it with fruit into a smoothie to make it palatable removing the “weight loss” and convenient meal option which is the whole point in purchasing. Marketed and advertised over and over as “great tasting” reviews stating “delicious” which is a straight up lie. Then told they don’t accept returns even the unopened, sealed, original packaging with receipt bags and if I didn’t want them I could sell them on EBay! Apparently it is in the “terms and conditions” which we all check out before making an online order! False advertising and a total [Content Removed]! The way they treat their customers that it doesn’t work for is appalling, business ethics and just plain customer service is non existent.

Happy Shaker – I've been enjoying your vanilla shakes, as they are very filling and I quite like the flavour. Also being vanilla you can add different fruits to change it up a bit. Show details ·  1

This definitely is a fantastic product! – I have only been on the the lady shake for a month and I am yet to decide on my favorite the selection is great I do suggest to to wizz it up with different frozen fruit combos Vanilla is so versatile you can add any fruit I love adding half a frozen mango it's delicious Also caramel and frozen banana! Yummo Be adventurous with your shakes they are fantastic And I'm loosing weight! Show details

Vanilla is the best one, I’m seeing fast results – I have been using the lady shake for over a week. My starting weight is close to 150kg. I’ve lost 4kg in the first week. So far I’ve tried vanilla, coffee, chocolate and strawberry. Vanilla is by far the best, coffee my least favourite but they’re all fine. I feel the coffee one is a bit better if I blitz it with a bit of ice. After a couple… Read more ·  1

days of doing the rapid plan.. I felt a little unwell. Lightheaded and nauseous. However this only lasted a day. I think it was just my body adjusting to less carbs and calories. So far the shakes are absolutely meeting my expectations - exceeding them even. A lot of people are saying it’s not sustainable but I disagree. I’m happy to continue this for a long time. It’s giving the convenience I need to be successful in getting healthier, and I’m feeling motivated.

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

Thumbs down to The Lady Shake – I’m sorry but the lady shake vanilla and the lady shake chocolate both made me feel like I was going to be sick. They tasted like thick powdered milk. They cost a lot but I threw them in the trash. I am never buying them again and certainly not waisting any more money to try another flavour. Show details

Tastes is disgusting !! – Tried the lady shake as I’d been using fatblaster shakes for a few months, the taste is so disgusting I felt like being sick, after one try I’ve had enough and I will be going back to fatblaster which in my opinion tastes great ! Show details

If only I knew first – I have drunk 2 only & have been given serious diahoreah. Being physically disabled its flipping messy. Had the possibility of this occuring being labled on packaging I would have avoided it. Rather Disappointed. Show details

DON"T, DON"T go there. KEEP YOUR MONEY IN YOUR POCKET – This would be the worst product I've ever had the misfortune to try. Made me gag also a bad reaction, had vomiting. Worst is tried contacting them and other than an email asking me questions which I answered nada!!! Poor service poor company. Show details

Don’t do it – I had put on weight through the Covid-19 lockdown and I thought I would try these shakes as I don’t eat badly and have great self control, I ended up getting sick and I knew that this was a temporary thing with the diet so I persevered, but I have gained 7 kilos and I have been having problems with my stomach, bladder and kidneys, so I have… Read more

stopped completely and will throw them away, I am extremely disappointed with the product and I am struggling to lose any weight at all, please don’t do this to yourself, find a better way to lose weight

Don't do it – Don't fall for the propaganda. I lost 30 kilos the good old fashioned way with healthy eating and excersise, But could not budge the last 10 kilos. So I decided to try this product and I followed the guidelines step by step no deviations and I have gained 7 kilos in less than 3 months. Showed my doctor the product and she told me to get off it… Read more

straight away....

so disappointed Shame on the false advertising. This product has messed up 4 years of hard work in less than 3 months.

Constipation! – The flavour is nice but very sickly sweet! Unfortunately they have caused terrible constipation. I have always drank alot of water (3L daily) and yet only one shake a day has caused issues. The only flavour I enjoyed was vanilla. Strawberry is so sweet I couldn't drink it! But If you have a sweet tooth it's definitely for you! I won't buy again . Show details

Great taste! – The Vanilla with a chopped banana and some ice cubes straight into the nutri bullet Blender with 1&1/2 cups of water. Feel satisfied. Only on 1x shake per day for now with a 1300 calorie intake per day with min 30 minutes of exercise if I can. But have tried other flavours they mostly fine, don't like the coffee one but willing to try the new GO. Show details

Play with how you use it – I use the vanilla, I've tried some others but vanilla is my go to flavour for most sweet things. I'm a regular consumer of stevia so I don't get the after taste some people mention. I add Banana and blueberries and don't use 2 scoops just 1 1/2 because I find it too thick with 2. Try it it makes all the difference. I think key to making a good… Read more

shake is use a stick blender which is far superior to a shaker. I also use cold soda water which is delightful when it's hot. Change it up to suit your tastes, vanilla is great for that.

It’s ok, drinkable, I add fruit to Vanilla – I bought the vanilla Lady Shake, I add banana and mixed berries, find it quite tasty. I find there are quite a few vitamins etc in it so opted not to take any more in case I overdose. I walk everyday, haven’t checked my weight, only been on a couple of days Show details

Vegan lady shake is DISGUSTING – Warning, do not purchase Vegan lady shake! It is undrinkable, I don't know any reasonable human being could drink this product. I was even more saddened by the total lack of customer service when they refused to offer me a refund. They don't provide refunds based on taste. Fine but you should warn people about this before they check out as had I… Read more

known this, I would never have purchased it. I'll be throwing almost a full packet in the bin. Thanks for nothing Lady Shake!

Taste horrible – The price & the taste, 0/10 this is the worst tasting shake and the most expensive I’ve ever gotten.. so disappointed and really unhappy I spent the money. I had vanilla and I hope I can get a refund Show details

Causes Vommiting within 30 minutes – I initially bought the product from word of mouth good reviews, so I bought 2 big bags to use as a quick breakfast replacement. I have 2 flavors, Vanilla & Choc Mint, both have caused me immediate digestive discomfort and uncontrollable vomiting within 30minutes of consumption. I have tried half serves, quarter serves, mixing with different… Read more

liquids, thinking my stomach may just need to adjust but, Every time the nausea starts soon after consumption and results in uncontrollable vomiting. I have checked over the ingredients and it seems it may be the flax seed as I have had similar reactions to that in other seed products. I did not expect flax to be an ingredient. Also I 100% agree the taste is very artificial and not pleasant at all. Perhaps the sweetener needs to be removed or heavily reduced.

Waste of Money/No Medical Disclaimer on packaging – Bought the bulk powder in a bag. Read the whole package for information, at no point on packaging did it say to consult a Doctor before starting if you have medical issues. Found this information on page 2 of their website after trying to get a refund. Left me extremely bloated with heartburn for hours on end and still hungry. Very thick fluid… Read more

like a pancake batter and did not taste nice at all. Bought off shelf at chemist and they could not give me any details on it. Only weight loss is in my wallet !!!! Customer service is non existent, they have many disclaimers so you can't get your money back.

Negative reviews – I am surprised with all these negative comments...not everything is going to be nice to everyone but if you're serious about losing weight you need to stick with it cause I'm pretty sure if something was as bad it is well they wouldn't be able to sell it..as they say you can add fruit or milk etc to make taste better..I say stick with it and get… Read more

in the right mindset and you never know you might just surprise yourself plus your body will thank you for it !!

I Dry Retch just thinking about the lady shake .. sickly sweet and watery – When I contacted lady shake company they were condescending and told me to resell privately Show details

Tastes awful – I have had the first shake today and thought they would taste the same as Optifast and other brands, but it was awful. It tasted like strong saccharin with no hint of vanilla at all. So disappointed Show details
