Orgain Organic Meal, Vegan Meal Replacement Protein Powder, Vanilla Bean - 20g Plant Based Protein, 6g Prebiotic Fiber, Fruits, Vegetables & Greens, Gluten Free, Shakes & Smoothies, 2.01lb

I bought this meal replacement to loose about 30 lbs. Been using it for almost a week having it for breakfast. I bought this particular one because I have IBS and Whey and garlic and onion really aggravate it. This is the only one of the plant based kind that does not list onion or garlic in it and does not use whey. In any case, this works really great for me. I mix with water only as dairy can mess with my IBS too. I use ice cold water and mix it with a shaker bottle vigorously. 1st put in water then put in 2 scoops then wire whisk, close tight and shake shake shake, put an extra wiggle in it for some exercise. Then I drink it. I like it best with a straw but can drink both ways. The first time I drank it I could take the after taste people talked about and it was indeed sweet. Is it gross no, is it a yummy desert shake no, it is a meal replacement to lose weight and better my health yes so deal with it. I won't look cute this summer if I don't work hard. After 3 days of drinking it, I no longer taste the aftertaste. So, I am a chunky monkey so yes I am still hungry after I drink it, but it curves the hunger to not be starving so I can make it to lunch. And continuously drink water, I am up to 70 oz of water in one day now, I use to drink maybe 16 oz. Nobody ever said Dieting was fun, or easy. So hopefully with some discipline I will shrink this hunger monster and I will get to feeling fuller. I have put myself on a 1200 calorie a day diet and I drink this for breakfast no milk 230 calories. Then I have whatever was left over for dinner since I have portion control now, there will be leftovers. Energy, yes I do feel more energized and it could be all the veggies in here which I was so lacking in my diet. Do I feel good that at least this is one small step closer to the size I want to be. Yes, I want to have that summer body, yes I want to live to be in my 90's yes I want energy to play with my grandbaby.I bought the creamy chocolate fudge and I will probably stay using only this one it does smell good and I don't want to risk trying a different flavor that 1. may not work with my ibs or 2 . tastes really bad so I will buy this one again. :)

This is the first time I've tried an Orgain product, I purchased the chocolate fudge flavor meal powder. It has a great ingredient list which is why I decided to try it. It smells so good, like hot cocoa mix. It blends well and has a smooth texture. I use a bullet type blender and not a shaker bottle so I can't speak for how it blends in a shaker. The first day I made it with chocolate almond milk for extra chocolatey-ness, and a banana. It had a yummy chocolate taste but I thought it was way too sweet, like too much stevia or erythritol. I am not a fan of either of these sweeteners, I prefer natural cane sugar, but want to limit sugar so I'm trying different options. The second day I made it with just the chocolate almond milk and no banana, and it tasted much better. It didn't seem as sweet as the first day so I don't know if it was the banana, if there was more sweetener in the scoop the first day (doubtful though since it's all blended in the tub) or if I just got used to the taste in one day. But I enjoyed it so much more the second day, and it will definitely be one of the options I use regularly in whatever powders I rotate through (I like to use two different ones and rotate them each day for breakfast). I didn't have any hunger pangs by the time I had lunch so it does seem to be as satiating as a meal.

This stuff is great. I hate everything that is always containing, wheat, dairy or soy. I stopped taking any kind of protein for many years until finding this product. I like to make shakes with it as well, using almond milk, veges, and blueberries or something. I like the taste, some people complain that it's chalky, but seriously, this is some of the best tasting protein I've ever had.. mixes very easily too. Good stuff here bruh.Update: I still use, and love this product. I've referred family, and other friends to this as well. They were currently on herbalife, and someone else was using another popular health drink diet. Well i was just checking out all the ingredients on those, and there are hundreds of random colors, phospates, preservatives, wheat, soy, and tons of other crap i had no idea what was. I kind of made them feel bad about their expensive product they purchased, and were trying to be healthy. But i had to point out all that extra crap that was in their product. Then i showed them the ingredients on this, and pointed out how everything in the ingredients is organic, and something you know... banana, apple, kale..strawberries, spinach, etc. Not all these 20 word long items that you have no clue. Well anyway.. i feel good I brought them to something not only better.. but also a LOT cheaper! I've also been buying the pre-packaged meal replacement drinks. Packs of 12.. those are also great for on the go, or if your in a big hurry.Otherwise, I mix this with some almond milk, and it tastes great. Sometimes ill throw more kale/spinache or frozen fruit in there too.. make it however you like. I don't feel bloated, i don't feel overly full, or sick, it actually makes me feel very good. I'll continue to purchase!Thanks Good luck!
