Nice and found it easy to drink
Have only tried coffee and choc. First time user. Can’t complain. Has a nice taste and does fill you up. Price is high compared to other shakes like VPA. So I wouldn’t buy due to $$R

Not bad. But poor marketing from chemist.
Bought this from the local chemist. I spoke to the female attendant and asked her if it come in small trial packs and her response was no. only if you buy a shaker you will get two small packs. One choc mint one coffee. None of which I like...So I fork out $44. for one large bag of chocolate flavored shake. Which is not bad tasting. no weight loss yet, but it's only a week, so time will tell. Now I get on The Man Shake web site and guess what! They sell a Man Shake Variety Pack. 5 Flavors in a 10 pack. And supermarkets sell the Variety Pack. . my fault for not shopping around.

Side effects
Purchased about a months worth of product however was not able to stay on it for more than one or two days at a time as it caused severe constipation. Increased my water intake and tried Metamucil but this stuff set like concrete hence no weight loss success for me.

Not sure yet!
I have been using The Man Shake for only one week replacing breakfast and lunch each day. Unfortunately I also am suffering with severe constipation which is surprising as normally I have a regular constitution. I have now read more reviews which seem to support my experience with the Man Shake. I did weigh myself before I started the program but don't believe I have been on the program long enough to say whether I have lost weight. I will post another review once I am back to normal and will try a different approach to using this product. I am not prepared to stop using Man Shakes just yet. I also purchased a variety of the Man Bars to supplement snacks etc between shakes which seem to complement the shakes and satisfy my appetite.

Why would you?
I purchased the 10 pack of assorted flavours from Coles for $36. Day 1, I had the chocolate. Day 2, I had the strawberry. Day 3, I had the vanilla. There was no day 4 because the taste of the shakes literally made me gag and I felt nauseated for the three mornings after consuming them. I think I know why they don't sell individual packs.
Apart from the convenience factor, why would anyone replace a meal with a shake?
For breakfast, you could have a cup of sultana bran with skim milk which is approximately 210 calories. A poached egg on a slice...Read more

Hi people have shakes - especially the man shake as it is high in protein and low in sugar and packed full of vitamins and minerals which you need if you want to be healthy, have energy and lose weigh... Read more
t. A calorie is not a calorie and most of your suggestions either contain no protein or are high in sugar like sultana bran which is actually bad for you and is why the govt is looking to crank down on breakfast cereals and their "health claims". Taste is subjective and there are definitely things you can do to change the taste so please email [email protected] and they can send you a list of suggestions as you obviously want the man shake to work for you like it has for hundreds of thousands of other aussies.Similar opinion?

manshake flavors
i have tried the Chocolate and strawberry manshakes which i bought on line direct for first time the taste is excellent and it works .if you run short of it don't expect to find any in stores they advertise . the IGA STORES hasn't had any since August don't pay $50 or over as it is a rip of. so when you start remember good luck finding any at stores you have to wait 10 day's for delivery .because the product is si successful the service is absolutely terrible

Ummmm, its bad.
It may be nutritionally good and healthy, but compared to other products on the market with the same calories per serve and similar price range, The Man Shake tastes bloody awful.

Hi Dave the other ones are full of sugar which is why you prefer the taste - dont look at the calories look at the sugar content as some have nearly as much sugar as a can of coke! There are heaps of ... Read more
things you can do to change the taste if you really want to give it a go you can have with unsweetened almond milk, add half a banana or some frozen berries - hope you give it a try as you really cant compare nutritionally the man shake to any others out there cheersSimilar opinion?

Tastes great
The chocolate shake tastes great. I certainly would not have thought I was drinking something healthy as it tastes too good. The caramel shake is good, but prefer it mixed with the chocolate. Keeps me full for several hours

Great Results !
I've been doing the man shake for 3 and a half months now and have lost 10kg. I also switched from milky coffee to straight black and make a concerted effort to avoid sugar wherever you possible. The Man Shake worked for me not just in the product but changing my eating habits.

result = decent taste and extreme constipation
It tastes pretty average, but would put up with it to get results. i got the taste test kit, and a larger size of choc.
i wanted to shed 5-10 kg to be more lean.
i have used plenty of protein shakes over the years of going to gym, and am used to the downside of drinking so much protein, but i have NEVER experienced such bad constipation.... its extreme. to the point i have just put it in the cupboard and turning back to the normal protein shakes. just be aware, i had read the same reviews about it and thought i would just use some fiber supplements in my coffee to help it, even that didnt help

It simply works!
Tried choc, choc-mint, and vanilla and all tasted great. Vanilla is extra versatile because you add to the flavour with berries or coffee. I like that you can easily change the texture of the shake to have it how you like it and I love that they really do work!

Feeling fantastic
Started the Shakes for breakfast and lunch on the 5th June. Already 10kgs lighter and feeling fantastic. The Shakes along with recommended snacks including the Man Bars are keeping me satisfied until dinner. Still alot of weight to loose but this change in diet is certainly making the task easier whilst also tasting great. I am only walking for excercise but still getting positive results that will hopefully lead me to a little more strenuous exercise later.

side effects override benefits
I purchased The Man Shake for my husband. I'd read a number of reviews that seemed to be favorable. I bought the chocolate flavor and my husband said that it was a little too sweet when mixed with water as per the instructions. He mixed it with a little light milk as well as water, and said that it tasted much better. It did fill him up so that he did not need to snack between meals. However, the BIG downside was that within a couple of days he was complaining of being constipated. He tried drinking more water to counter the effects but after a week had to stop using The Man Shake. He did say that he had actually lost about 2 kgs, but the constant feeling of constipation was not worth it.

Sorry to hear this. It can take up to a week for your body to process the change to a high protein diet, dependent on your diet before.
Did you try fish oil tablets? TMS
