Slim Fast for one meal a day?!

It doesn't matter if you want to lose fat or maintain your body composition, you shouldn't add Slim Fast to your diet. It's expensive, has almost no fiber, and you can get the same benefit with a one-a-day viatmin and some milk while saving money. Slim Fast products are supplements and there is nothing special about them. Read the label ---> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Slimfa…

Here's how to burn fat. Forget all the fad diets, myths and misinformation, and just plain bad advice you've learned in the past. Here's the only fat loss plan you need and it's approved the US National Institute of Health.

Eat a diet of varied, wholesome, and high quality foods such that your daily caloric intake is about 500 calories less than your daily caloric burn while keeping your macronutrient ratios at about 55/25/20 (%calories from carbs/fats/protein). And, don't do anything to defeat the foregoing plan such as taking supplements, drinking alcohol, abusing drugs, using cleanses or emetics, etc. That's it. It's that simple.

Here's the only two websites you need to do that.
1. This site has a wide range of information about foods, fat, diets, and exercise with calculators, diet tips, food facts, etc. ---> http://www.freedieting.com/

2. This website is a great way to track calories, macronutrients, water, and exercise. It also does all the math for you and makes it super easy to look up foods to enter into your online food intake diary. There's a discussion forum where you can exchange info with thousands of other dieters. --->http://www.myfitnesspal.com/

Here's my food intake diary as an example ---> http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/c…

I ate too many calories today as you can see but it was a cheat day and I still lost. Once you get your diet on track, you can manage your little indulgences and if you want to gulp down a Slim Fast now and then just because you like them, do it. However, don't buy that crap and take it every day thinking you're benefiting your health because you're not. Eventually you'll have to stop and then what?

Also, you should be eating 4-6 small meals a day with healthy snacks in between such that you're feeding yourself every two hours while awake. That's the best way to eat because it will allow your body to process your food more efficiently while keeping your appetite satisfied.

Good luck and good health!!

You're probably already eating healthy enough, but having slimfast once a day won't hurt you. Hell, it's probably healthier than eating it for two meals a day by FAR!


However... it's probably time for you to exercise. Exercising beats "dieting" by far.

Your results will very much depend on what/how much you eat on the other two meals. If you are sensible, you will see results. It might be slower but it is possible.
