I’ve been using Slim Fast for 2 months now and I lost 10 pounds. It’s not really hard to do and it’s even simplified my life a little bit.
First of all it’s easy to make and it’s great alternative to “I don’t know what to have for breakfast” meal. When I am in a hurry it works too.
Second of all it’s very tasty. I stocked my fridge with frozen raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, tropical fruits, plus I always have fresh bananas for great variety of awesome shakes. I think I eat healthier then before with all those fruits and berries.
Thirdly, starting off your morning right is very imperative. In the morning I prefer to eat complex carbohydrates and fiber. We need fiber in our diet because it cleans out our body from waste. Fiber is an important part of any healthy diet.
My recipe for a morning shake:
½ or third of banana
¼ of raw oats
½ cup of raspberries (great source of fiber)
1 cup of milk or water
1 scoop of slim fast (You can easily replace Slim Fast with yogurt.)
Mix everything very thoroughly in blender. Enjoy
I also have one fiber plus Eggo wheat waffle, of course without syrup. Also I have small cup of coffer. When I say small it’s not your Tim Horton’s small it’s halve of the regular cup.
My friend, Tiffany, gained weight on Slim Fast and it’s not a joke. She said Slim Fast made her hungry and she ate more things with Slim Fast then before she went on a diet. I see easily how you can gain weight with Slim Fast. It’s tasty, it has 20 gr. of sugar in it, you can drink easily two cups, also psychologically you think you deprive yourself food and you want to eat even more. Maybe you cut back calories but you are not exercising which resulted in your body starts the process of storing fat in anticipation of future starvation. That’s the reason why fast weight loss is not effective.
