You need real food. I wouldn't use slim fast as a meal replacement.
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.
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.
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.
Ask your health food store for a good meal replacement that is good for digestion. There are many to choose from.
Have you been tested for Candida? It can cause some of the symptoms you are having, especially the digestion issues.
That does sound fast but you're body is adjusting to it ok. You'll know when you taper too fast. I would take it day by day. I would also split the pills as you get near taking none. That way the withdrawals won't be too bad.
So i guess my question is what can i use, thats a quick, fast, easy meal replacement, with protein, and carbs. I have tried many protein bars, but all of which contain HIGH ammounts of sugar. so thats out of the question now. Do u know of any meal replacement bars or protein bars, that arent loaded with sugar?
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.
Does anyone know how I can purchase the Slim Ball pills DESPERATE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
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.
Thanks ladies I do get worried about this but I will eat bigger portions n hope it works.
What are you trying to accomplish? Normally protein drinks are a supplement and not made to be "meal replacement". I'm no dietician but typically protein drinks don't have a bunch of nutrients.
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.
So for three weeks I had a sinus infection. My sinuses were inflamed and I was put on 3 different rounds of antibiotics including, allergy pills, steroids, albudural and many others. I then had a CT scan of my sinuses but they said they couldn't find anything. \
While I had my sinus infection I had a lot of pressure in my head. I wasn't sleeping or eating. Now that they say it isn't my sinuses I have no idea whats wrong.
ll get hungry and want seconds lol but i was like that too but now im starting to eat alot more im 27 wks btw ohhh and if that doesnt work drink meal replacement shakes so you still get the essential vitamins and good stuff
m down to 1 meal a day, and even thats hard to digest. I get light headed and tired a lot as a result. I noticed if i take a meal replacement powder in juice that i feel better. But all the meal replacement powders ive seen have fiber thats very hard for me to digest. They also have wieght loss formula's in them too which i dont want either. So is there a good meal replacement powder i can get that has the nutrients i need but no fiber and no weight loss formula? Any suggestions?
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!
yes. I'm 10 weeks and usually have to eat small amounts at a time. I get full fast and then hungry again soon after. I usually eat a small meal and then have a snack later.
