Is the atkins advantage shake a meal replacement like slimfast?

Atkins Advantage shakes are somewhat like slimfast but different also...they only have 150-160 calories per shake, and only 1gm net carbs. The label will usually say total carbs 5gm or so, but you have to subtract the fiber, to get net carbs. Net carbs is what your body actually absorbs, and converts to glucose. I use the Atkins shakes on my low carb diet, but I use them like a slim-fast plan...3 a day, 1 morning, 1 at lunch, 1 mid-afternoon snack, and a small protein meal at night. It has worked very well for me....hope this helps!
