Avatar f tn You need real food. I wouldn't use slim fast as a meal replacement.
Avatar f tn hi has any one done the slim fast diet----(milkshakes) and lost weight.How lond could u go on for? I'm planning to go on it but will do only one shake for dinner and have breakfast and lunch as normal.
Avatar f tn I've recently had a friend try to get me to do this 9 day fast with supplements by isogenics (not sure of the spelling). Then after that your supposed to take some supplements and continue some of their meal replacements. The "reason" this works is because its supposed to cleanse the toxins and give maximum weightloss while becoming healthier?!? So I wanted to know if anyone has heard of or tried this system . Thanks.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had any luck on the Slim-Fast diet? I just started it, I need to lose around 30lbs.
655875 tn?1295695107 Slim Fast was getting difficult to stay on track. I found myself cheating on the diet. My friend told me about the protien shake that Dr. Oz uses. There are a few recipes on his website. Right now I am using the Ultimate Breakfast Smoothie. It tastes awesome and it actually keeps me full for over 6 hours. I have zero cravings for food and sweets. I've cut back my dinner portion.
Avatar f tn You may want to head to a health food store and ask about a Weight Gainer Protien Shake or Liquid Meal Replacement like Ensure, Slim Fast etc. If you eat normal meals each day and add a Slim Fast drink you will gain some weight as you are adding more calories. You can also download NOOM App for free or go to My Fitness Pal online and use thier calorie counters to track your food caloric intake vs. out put.
1279364 tn?1280682588 m counting points but I am also chugging back a weight loss shake everyday as part of those points. There is no way I could ever do the Slim-Fast plan or anything like it. I just like the amount of nutrients in the form of chocolate milk i can get! Makes a great difference if I need a boost before working out or just need something to keep me going while I make dinner. ^_^ Anyways, some of them certainly don't taste very good. My favorite so far comes from Wal-Mart.
1968463 tn?1374757813 What I may do, is just make sure to also eat small meals with my meds. Or, I can do what I know works....slim fast shakes two times a day and good sensibel meal for dinnner. I honestly think that it is more the feeling bad and not being as active as normal that has me gaining weight. i just dont think that I want to go so extreme while dealing with everything else I have going on. I think that it would just be impossible for me too do anyway.
Avatar f tn Welcome to the community. Try walking at a reasonable pace. Also look into yoga as it's low impact and done at a slow very deliberate pace. Be sure to watch what you eat as well - might also help the e-coli infection.
Avatar f tn My bowels do not move every day either, which is a question my gyne. asked about too. The only fiber supplements I can find are either chewable tablets or a powder to mix in a drink, both of which I have a severe aversion to. The only other fibers I find OTC are to be used only when needed. I understood my gynecologist to mean to take fiber daily. Is there a supplement in pill form OTC for daily use or is there a prescription I could ask her for? Thank you.
Avatar f tn I take mine right after a meal and I haven't gotten sick from them.
Avatar f tn Just wanted to add that I, and a friend of mine, too, upon first trying Slim Fast thought there was magic in the shake, and thought we could eat whatever we wanted and take the shake and it would somehow do the work for you. Heh, well I learned you can't do a meal and a shake and that the secret is that it is about 200 calories per can, and it fills you up with protein, vitamins and minerals, so you don't get hungry.
Avatar n tn I did a glucose tolerance test, and came back well within normal. Yet high post meal readings continue. The Dr said it was likely dude to stress hormones effecting the digestion process, which wouldn't the liquid sugar load in a glucose tolerance test. Despite this, I continue to obsess, test like crazy, and I guess from the stress, continue to get scary high post meal numbers. I'd really like to avoid perscription meds.
655875 tn?1295695107 Sounds great! I do the same sometimes with mushrooms instead of ham.
Avatar f tn 7 am every morning, 5 to 12 miles a day running. Has to go on an empty stomach. He now eats pretty much a full meal like pasta and chicken before bed to have energy in the morning. Ugh. That's getting old fast but he's handling it on his own, more and more. He is making a plate from dinner to have around 8 pm. Long way of saying that I feel your pain.
9764007 tn?1405807828 I'm wondering, we're you very slim before you got pregnant. My mom has always been very slim and when she started developing a tiny bit of a belly it made her feel really gross, but no one else really noticed it.
Avatar n tn Does anyone know how I can purchase the Slim Ball pills DESPERATE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Avatar f tn Thanks ladies I do get worried about this but I will eat bigger portions n hope it works.
Avatar f tn This herb alone most likely won't help you lose weight, but it might help you with blood sugar if that's a problem. It's an ayurvedic supplement (part of Indian (the country) herbal medicine but as with almost all supplements that purport to help you lose weight it doesn't do that by itself.
Avatar m tn A healthy and regular meal is vital to gain or lose weight. Consuming more calories than you burn will help in gaining weight. Try to gain weight in a healthy and steady way. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. You may consult a nutritionist and get a diet chart made which will provide you with adequate calories in a healthy way. There can be many causes which can prevent a person from gaining weight.
Avatar f tn I'm 48 and getting back into weight lifting. What supplements are best for me? GNP have great stuff!
Avatar f tn In my case it’s autoimmune gastritis. I take digestive enzymes supplements and if the meal contains a good amount of protein then I also take betaine HCL with pepsin supplements. I feel so much better on these supplements!!
Avatar m tn i started hitting gym about few months back and because i am not able to intake many calories through my meal, i am using weight gainer. I am currently using BSN's truemass. Just wanted to know if it is safe to use these supplements and wanted to know if there are any side effects..?
1341943 tn?1276144290 The only alternative I have found to maintain a healthy body are supplements, but one has to be careful in doing so. If you just take a one-a-day vitamin & mineral supplement most of the time you are wasting your money to an extent. Most of the one-a-day gets flushed right through, in order for your body to assimilate the nutrients they need to be balanced. I also agree with your idea of cooked foods. Some foods need to be cooked and some don't.
Avatar f tn Aw, I'm so sorry you're feeling this way. I, too, have chronic pain and have had it for over 20 years. I won't lie to you and say it'll get any better, unless you're on some awesome pain meds, of course, or you get that miracle blessing of it totally disappearing!
