In my SlimFast Voxbox, I received:

-SlimFast Advanced Nutrition 100 Calorie Snacks Drizzled Crisps, Cinnnamon Bun Swirl

-SlimFast Advanced Nutrition 100 Calorie Snacks Sour Cream & Onion Baked Crisps

-SlimFast Advanced Nutrition Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Meal Replacement Bars

-SlimFast Advanced Ready to Drink Shake, Vanilla Creme

Lets start the first product review with the drizzled crisps. To start, these crisps definitely satisfies my sweet cravings if I’m having one! It’s not too sweet which I love and I don’t feel bad eating it since it’s only a 100 calories. You can eat it by itself or as cereal. I prefer to eat it as cereal since it’s more fulfilling because I’m also eating it with milk. I love how the crisps don’t get soggy after a few minutes of it being in milk. So by the time I’m done eating it, every bite will still have a crunch. If you want a healthier version of the Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, you can substitute them for the drizzled crisps. Taste wise, it tastes like a cinnamon rice cake drizzled with caramel/vanilla sauce. Overall, I would rate it a 10/10.

I absolutely enjoyed eating SlimFast Sour Cream & Onion Baked Crisps! I would rate it a 10/10. Tastes exactly like regular baked chips but the only difference is that it’s healthier. If I was blindfolded and was given a bag of these crisps or a bag of regular baked chips, I would not know the difference! The crisps has a nice crunch and texture to them and it satisfies my chip craving. Compared to other baked chips, these crisps are not salty which is a huge plus! Out of all the products I received from the SlimFast Voxbox, the crisps is my first favorite.

The Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Meal Replacement Bars tastes amazing! I like these a lot more than the Nature Valley Oats n’ Dark Chocolate and Fiber One Oats & Chocolate bars, solely because there’s an additional ingredient of almonds. Other than that, it tastes like any other granola bar. It’s soft and chewy, yet crunchy from the almonds and it isn’t overly sweet. SlimFast advertises these bars as a meal replacement bar which I do NOT recommend. You should never replace a full meal with just a granola bar. Instead, eat these bars as a snack. I would rate these bars as an 8/10. 

If you’ve ever had Ensure Nutrition Shake in Vanilla, then you’ve pretty much tasted this. Compared to Ensure and SlimFast, I would choose SlimFast because it has more protein than Ensure. SlimFast’s shake has 20 grams of protein and Ensure’s shake has 9 grams of protein. The shake has a thick and creamy consistency and tastes 10x better when it is served chilled. The shake is a tad bit too sweet for me so I would dilute it with a little bit of milk. Overall, I would rate the shake an 8/10.

I cannot make a comment about weight loss since it’s impossible to see pounds shed with just one use of each product. However, I can say that it does satisfies my cravings and control hunger. On top of using Slimfast products and having a proper diet and regular exercise, I can see how people can lose weight.
