I have used the exact brand for a long time. However, I have to tell you that now I finally realize why I am always so hungry after consuming them. The sugar in them gives me an instant sugar high and my body thinks I am consuming straight sugar, in order to counteract that I add more protein to the shake in the form of nonfat cottage cheese and a little oatmeal...but most of the time just cottage cheese. I know they aren't recommended on PP, but it is hard for me to get in all that protein... I usually have it as a snack after lunch to get me through until dinner...a time when I get the hungriest... Also, they do give me gas and so I try to drink lots of water after I drink the shake... I haven't figured out how to get around the gas...

Since introducing Fiber One in the AM, it takes me safely until lunch...sometimes I snack on 1/2 apple and walnuts though...

Hope this helps you...
