No long-term maintenance plan: Once you reach your goal weight, you are advised to slowly decrease your consumption of SlimFast and increase your intake of regular foods. But beyond that, no structured plan helps to transition you off the diet. Lowe MR, Butryn ML, Thomas JG, Coletta M. Meal replacements, reduced energy density eating, and weight loss maintenance in primary care patients: a randomized controlled trial. Obesity (Silver Spring). 2014;22(1):94-100. doi:10.1002/oby.20582 SlimFast typically asks people to replace two of their meals with SlimFast products.

It may also be helpful for people who do not have a lot of time to incorporate a new diet into their routine. An older 2006 study that compared SlimFast with the Atkins diet, the Weight Watchers Pure Points program, and the “Eat Yourself Slim” plan found that all participants reported significant — and comparable — losses in weight and body fat over 6 months, compared with the control group. All the participants had overweight or obesity at the beginning of the study. A smaller 2004 study of 63 people with obesity found that following the SlimFast plan for 6 months led to an average 7% body weight loss.The SlimFast diet involves restricting calories, which is one of the most important factors in weight loss, according to a 2021 research review of different weight loss methods.

Effects of a meal replacement on body composition and metabolic parameters among subjects with overweight or obesity. As SlimFast provides a set plan that cannot easily be individualized, the results of this study suggest that SlimFast may not be suitable for long-term or significant weight loss.Diets that promote eating bars and shakes instead of real foods aren't sustainable and often aren't healthy. You might lose weight, but replacing your meals with highly processed meal replacements won't deliver long-lasting, satiating results." Traditional methods of weight loss, such as restricting calorie intake or intermittent fasting, may also be effective in the short term. With SlimFast, a person reduces their calories by replacing meals. The authors of this study write that meal replacements can be useful for people who find it difficult to estimate the calorie content of their food.
