“Hi, I bought 15 meals to try Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake. I go to the gym at lunch times and this product provides all I need for after workout drink (I am only using Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake as a substitute for my lunch in the office). I feel more awake after having this as a lunch than regular sandwich or whatever I took from my house. It is just 2 weeks since I bought it, and one since I started to used it as after workout drink but I might say that I am very happy.
Tried warm (chocolate) and cold (vanilla).
If you are looking for a product to lose weight, I wouldn’t recommend it unless you are in 4/5 days of gym and doing proper cardio, as it has a high amount of carbs, but If what you are looking for is to save time, be more energetic and save money then this is a good product.
As a reference to workouts (usually something that I miss in reviews about products like this), I would say that my energy levels are increasing, usually after 2 days of workouts I was really tired and needed a day to rest, now I can go 4/5 days straight doing heavy lifting and cardio (HIITT 2 days plus 3 days of mid-pace run) and others two days I do active recovery, long walks or some freelatics.”
“I've bought my second large batch of Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake (30 bag orders) which I have instead of breakfast and lunch. Having something more substantial for supper most days. It's really tasty and I find it's a great way to make sure that you're having a balanced meal instead of eating something less healthy to fill you up.
The only thing I would recommend is that sometimes the flavours are a little hit and miss and I'd love to see some more. Like many, I really didn't like the Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake green, which is a shame because an apple version would be yummy. Also, I'm less of a fan of the chocolate because it's a little bland in comparison to the others. The new mango flavour is fantastic, however. I really hope to see a cherry flavour some time.”
“Very good quality overall. Tastes are fine although too light and indistinguishable sometimes so that I enrich the taste with some cinnamon or other powder spices/herbs. You won't feel full after drinking this product so you need consider getting some fruits, dried fruit or whatever to make sure you won't feel hungry again an hour later. Cost is reasonable compared to other products alike on the market. I use it no more than twice daily and will definitely stick with it.”
“Great meal replacement. I'm not particularly inclined to eat/drink shakes, but they do a good job at those moments with an impossible schedule or a lazy supper alone at home. It's surprising that you feel immediately satisfied, your stomach feels fine and your only thougths are "what am I going to do with all this spare time?". Since you are receiving a balanced amount of nutrients, your body feels great. No cravings, no sugar drops. However, sometimes you miss that good old feelings of chewing, crunching and all that smell and flavour of traditional food.
It's not a diet product, and I do not want to survive exclusively on Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake but it is very convenient to have some bags available at home and at your workplace. Just in case.
A point to improve is texture and taste. It is not a smoothie, it feels a bit dusty, although not disgusting. The taste is not really bad (I haven't tried all yet) but I would like it to be a little more intense. Please refrain from adding hot water to the chocolate Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake. It is NOT hot chocolate! In general, the flavours are not too bad but you need to get accustomed.
In the end, it will only take you a minute to have all the job done, which is a real advantage. Additionally, you will drink at least 1500 milliliters of water every day, which practically covers your daily needs. Everything in a single, easy step. I hope there is still room for improvement in taste and texture but at its current state, Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake is already a great product.
The package took one week to arrive to Valencia. The shipping cost is too pricey unless you are prepared to buy Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake in bulk quantities.”
“Very nice products. Only problem is my lactose allergy. Have had to stop using Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake for some time now. BUT great alternative has come now with the vegan version of Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake! :D
Not too fond of all tastes: Only chocolate and vanilla taste are OK to me. Therefore GREAT that it is possible to mix and match order!”
“Ha sido mi primera experiencia con Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake y me está resultando útil para esos días que uno no tiene tiempo para comer. El sabor de vainilla me parece rico. Se agradece el regalo del agitador. Seguiré pidiendo. Buena idea.”
“I am still experimenting with Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake.
I am having it most working days for breakfast and every working day for lunch.
Flavour
The strawberry and chocolate flavours are quite pleasant, the banana's not bad. The vanilla doesn't mask the flavour of the ingredients enough for my liking and I really disliked the seasonal mango (but I'm fussy about mango flavoured things).
Convenience
So easy, so convenient, amazing!
Hunger
I'm not snacking much between meals although some days it gets a little disheartening not having real food until my evening meal.
Health and Fitness
I was overweight to begin with and I seem to have gained about 4lbs on Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake but I haven't been rigorous about weighing myself so I suppose it could just be normal fluctuations. I don't know if I feel healthier, I don't feel any worse, but my diet was very unhealthy before.”
