You need real food. I wouldn't use slim fast as a meal replacement.
Also covered are discussions relating to specific diet plans like the South Beach Diet, Atkins Diet, Slim-Fast, Weight Watchers, Counting Calories, Fat Flush, Body for Life and others."
"Fat Flush" is a detox diet, much like a fasting regime. "Slim-Fast" is not a natural product. I am getting confused by the terse dismissals being offered to people who have come here for support.
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.
Then, when I reached my target weight, I adopted a maintenance program which consists of 2 meals every day, and replace1 meal with a “diet shake”... protein bars for between-meal snacks. Be careful... not all meal-replacement products are equal.
Before I was pregnant I was on Herbalife nutrition products. I stop using the product by now I'm 27 weeks and thinking starting back i miss my meal replacement shakes. Any thoughts?
Try to eat a Heart Healthy diet which will give you the nutrients, vitamins and minerals your body needs, and help with possibly preventing future disease states. Heart Healthy diet which is a moderate fat diet and a moderate fat diet means = using polyunsaturated (omega 3, corn oil, nuts, etc) fats and monounsaturated (olive oil, canola oil, peanut oil, etc) fats, no saturated fats (high fat snack foods, butter, fat spreads) and no trans fats.
Over the last few months it's gradually been taking less food to get full...finally a few days ago I ate a normal-sized lunch at 1PM, then a healthy-sized dinner about 8:30PM. Felt very full, bloated, uncomfortable, and more puzzled as the hours passed. Slightly constipated but able to go that night nevertheless. Finally vomited big time about 1AM. Somewhat concerned, I ate a slightly smaller lunch the next day and then a normal dinner about 9PM, felt full but digested normally.
For a year or so i have had a terrible diet of mostly junk food and a relatively sedentary lifestyle. As a result of this i am now 4 stone overweight and always feeling tired and sluggish. Since last week i have joined my local gym and cut out junk food and sugar as much as i possibly can. I have reduced my calorie intake to about 1300 a day but i am feeling very ill and weak. What is the reason for this?
I am 36 female and I have been having the symptoms for about 2 years now off and on but recently it has come back with a vengance if I eat a meal 30 min later my heart is flying like i have been running mild movement while this is happenning just makes it worse . I am so glad I came across this site and not being alone in this, while reading threw some of the stories i saw carbs were part of the heavy meals and that after eating them the symptoms would occur so I tried something ....
Change diet to low carbs, high fat and protien. I suggest reading this book, it's called Grain Brain. great dieting plan in last chapter.
From the literature, ITP is not a diet related disease or triggered by diet. You can take supplements, however, you would benefit more from the foods you eat. Suggest eating a moderate fat diet to gain weight slowly, protein (amino acids) and eat healthy. Moderate fat diet means = use polyunsaturated (omega 3, corn oil, nuts, etc) fats and monounsaturated (olive oil, canola oil, peanut oil, etc) fats, no saturated fats (high fat snack foods, butter, fat spreads) and no trans fats.
I would have to say a low fat diet...fluids and high fiber diet helps in preventing constipation. You may experience burping and feeling of fullness coupled with gas. Low fat dairy products are good.
Avoid convienence foods and fast foods, as they tend to pack in hidden fats. Limit the use of oil to about 2-3 tsp. a day.
wheat products like bread, crackers, pasta, and cereals (and all the things that go on top of them), cheese, beer, etc. Replace two meals a day with a high-protein meal-replacement product such as a protein smoothie or protein bar. Forty pounds in two months is too much weight to lose safely. Using a low-carb diet such as Atkin's you can lose 5-8# monthly pretty easily.
