Default Shakes and a thank you to you all!

Hey, I just wanted to first thank you all for your support, and say I will
try to help as much as I can with anyone like I have received, but my
knowledge is of course, much more limited than others...

I went shake-shopping today after realizing my Slim Fasts have 25g of sugar
in each one. What a shocker. I was almost disgusted. Unfortunately, at my
local drugstore, I could not find anything that was much better. I had to
settle for Boost High Protein... with 15g protein and 33g carbs. But it
doesn't say how much of the carbs are sugar and how much are fibre... So I
am assuming most of it is sugar. Still it was in the same caloric range as
the Slim Fasts, and has more protein and slightly less carbs.

I also did see Glucerna there, but they only had it in 12 packs, and the 12
pack did not have the nutritional contents listed on the box because it was
a thick cardboard packaging-style box. It was the vanilla flavoured one. I
want to try a glucerna, but not 12 at once, in case I don't like them.

My other concern about going to low-carb shakes...is will I be ok getting so
many less carbs from sugars and carbs? Already, I get a major crash and my
eyes glaze over 3 hours after a Slim Fast. I'm worried that moving to
Glucerna, or even these high protein shakes from Boost will leave me even
more dizzy...because doesn't your body need a certain about of carbs to
function?

Well, thanks again all.

Mark
