Is there any harm to live mainly on Slim Fast and some snacks per day? Usually eat between 800-1000 calories. I'm losing the last 15 pounds to try to make my goal weight. I'm 5'6 and currently weigh 125 ... my goal is 110. I workout, usually on foot ... several hills are involved ... and as I said, I try to keep my calories to about 1,000 per day. Can anyone give advice .... I want to be healthy ... I usually Slimfast has 3x per day, and fill the rest of my calories from fruits and vegetables. The last 15 lbs. me crazy ... I would like advice or tips! thank u so much!
Eating 1,000 calories a day is not healthy. At your weight, you should consume about 1250 calories per day, but none of Slim Fast. Have you ever looked at the sugar content in the drink? It is better to have a Coke!
In addition, there is no protein in your diet .. real Proteins are the hardest substance in the body to digest and is necessary for many functions such as building muscle is essential because it helps you burn more calories at rest. Instead of Slim Fast, Met-Rx try RTD 51 as a meal replacement, it has 51 grams of protein per serving and most other vitamins so necessary.
You should take in about 125 grams of protein per day and avoid fruits, fructose is making it difficult for you to balance your insulin levels and that's why you're having trouble losing weight. Ok, 125 grams of protein per day, no Slim Fast, try a different, serious drink alternative means place, work with weights to add muscle tone your body and do cardio you are doing now, but not too him. Finally, if you only remember one thing about all this, stay away from sugar, as your ex ..... Without control of your insulin, you have a very difficult time losing the last 15 pounds. Good luck!
Maybe 125 pounds is the weight of your body idea. Could explain why so many lose 15 pounds.
Slim Fast 3 times a day. Well the first thing that pops up in my mind was that if you tried to comment suicide by yourself die of hunger.
You need at least 2,000 per day to stay healthy.
We have not even that low, when we Brig Rats on bread and water. The lowest was 1500 a day.
You must begin to take more protein in your body is otherwise not be able to replace body fat with muscle.
Firstly the objective weight is very unhealthy if your 5'6 "125 must be pretty thin on you. I think you should tone more and more solid foods, especially proteins such as tofu and beans. You should too worries about your BMI.
Firstly, your height, weight of 110 would be considered underweight. 115 would put you at the lower end of normal.
Second ... You may have problems losing more weight because you do not eat enough. Try to eat about 1200 calories per day. Your body may be in starvation mode.
I heard that zig zag works well too. This would change your daily calorie amounts. As one day .. 1200, one day in 1500, one day in 1100 ... etc.
But please try to be healthy when the weight loss.
Yes, there is serious injury to eating this way and it is also extremely cons-productive results. Basically, we will never get the look you want by going about it in this mode. What you do by eating so few calories lowers your metabolic rate and your body loses its ability to become a fat burning machine that was designed to be.
Now, let me ask you a question. Why are you so interested in 110 pounds? Do not dwell on what the scale says. Your results should be the way you look in the mirror. This will be achieved by undergoing a transformation of the body. This tranformation happen if you work properly, eat well and supplement properly.
For a lot of information in this a.
