"Hi all.. Quick question. Does slimmest work? I brought some yesterday, and had a shake this morning, and a shake for dinner.. Will. Be having a proper meal tonight.. DoEs it work? " Only if you are actually using more calories than you consume. You'll notice the marketing is carefully worded "has been SHOWN to assist with both weight loss and weight maintenance " No need to spend money on any products; just eat less calories than you use and take some excercise. | |||

"As said above.... Exercise is the key to any weight loss. Skip breakfast and jog a lap of your local park every other evening, You'll soon notice a difference! Good luck " No, skipping breakfast is very bad advice. | |||

Intermittent is not every day though? That 5:2 diet is like that I suppose. Most people who don't have a healthy breakfast usually end up eating a high sugar filled snack later. | |||

Intermittent fasting is also only eating for example between 2pm and 8pm. So you get your full days nutrition in those hours (not just 500 cals like on 5/2) and then dont eat again till 2pm the next day. I do it often. It works well. You just burn fat for energy the rest of the time as there's no food to use for fuel. | |||

The body stores glycogen as fuel for energy as far as i am aware it doesnt use food as a source directly. | |||

"So tempting devil,am I doing the correct thing in walking to work aswell as the slimfast.. I've cut out my 'crap' meals of a night and having salad instead of friesor chips with meals..." Move more and eat more veg. The more colourful your plate of food the better the balance of nutrients. But slimfast is full of all kinds of additives, sugar, sweeteners and bulking agents. And what happens when you reach your target weight? If you stop the slimfast you may well put it all back on again. Far better to make sustainable dietary changes that you can keep up. I went out for two meals this weekend and both times ate off the menu, no fuss or bother and others were looking at my food and wanting to try it and disbelieving that I'm on a diet! The only special request I made was no potatoes with my Sunday lunch - lots of veg and meat and it was delicious. | |||

Lost30kg by eating what I like basically, but controlled portion size and moved a hell of a lot more." Ive lost 4 stone and not worried about portion sizes at all. I only eat lean protein (any meat with the fat off) fish, eggs, skimmed milk, a bit of cheese here and there, tonnes of green leafy veg and salad and the odd bit of fruit. No Bread, pasta, potato. Avoid sugar at all costs. Evil stuff. Ive been there done that with slim fast and cabbage soup diets, drinking maple syrup and cayenne pepper and most other things, can honestly say I eat more now than ever and am much healthier, fitter and happier than ive ever been | |||

" do you intend to live on it? if not, I dont see the point. Get a change of diet and lifestyle, if you are looking to lose weight and dont waste you money flip flopping through 'diets' that once you come off them, your metabolism isn't used to processing carbs / sugars so will just pile the lb's back on as soon as you touch them. | |||

Good luck " Except skipping breakfast makes you put on weight as your body then stores anything it can get hold of. Eating breakfast kick-starts your metabolism in the mornings. Don't skip it. | |||

"So if I cut the slimfast out and have salad with tuna/chicken.. Would that be an healthier option? " Of course it would. It's not difficult, just eat little and often and don't eat crap, fill up on fruit and veg (preferably consume most of your fruit in the mornings), excercise more and drink more water. You'll do much better long term than with that crap. | |||

"So tempting devil,am I doing the correct thing in walking to work aswell as the slimfast.. I've cut out my 'crap' meals of a night and having salad instead of friesor chips with meals..." just doing this will work wonders - the slim fast has fuck all nutrition imo. decent fruit each day, nuts, fish, eggs, a nice steak once or twice a week. A a good support trainer. If you wanted, you can buy small weights that go around the ankles, though I would leave this until you are used to the walk. | |||

"So if I cut the slimfast out and have salad with tuna/chicken.. Would that be an healthier option? " Tuna, chicken, Turkey, egg, green salad, spinach, rocket, that sort of stuff. Stay away from fatty dressings like Mayo and get some fat free stuff. Read the ingredients of everything!! Better yet don't eat anything that has an ingredient list. Fresh meat, fish, fruit, veg, eggs! Get my fitness pal and log everything you eat. Aim for maybe 1800 cals a day Id say unless your really really active. Don't get the calories from shit food! Trust me you'll notice the difference straight away. And steer clear of sugar! The stuff is the devil! | |||

I started by cutting all the white carbs, now I occasionally have them but find I don't eat as much as I used to. Even if I have a plateful of chips I only eat a few as I feel fuller more quickly. Learn to know when you're full and stop eating then. Eat more slowly and chew thoroughly. We eat far more out of habit or to clear our plates than we actually need. | |||

"Get in the right frame of mind Eat smaller bites, chew and when full stop! Even if you are a fancy restaurant and eat and are full, don't binge or gorge just stop " Don't be embarrassed to ask for a doggie bag in restaurants! Most places will happily wrap up any leftovers and you get to enjoy your meal again. I eat out all over the place and have no problems. I simply order meat with salad or just veggies and ask that they leave the potatoes off. I even eat at carverys and have everything but the potatoes. Although I find Yorkshire puddings hard to resist but there have to be some treats as long as they're occasional. | |||
