Does Slimfast Work?

Every day we get asked about different diets, so over the next few weeks we will look at a few of them and see what they are all about. First up is SLIM FAST. With the Slimfast plan, you eat two Slimfast meal replacements, three 100-calorie snacks (Slimfast snack bars, fruits, veggies, or even nuts), and one 500-calorie meal that you provide. With this plan you can eat 6 times per day. Slimfast is heavily advertised/promoted, but that does not mean it is all hype, as people who STICK to it – lose weight. People who choose it as a lifestyle diet choice keep the weight off. This last point applies to many diets. Where Slimfast scores though is it is convenient and is readily available.

For 100-calorie snack options, choose from a variety of flavours from their original Slimfast snack bars or from the Slimfast Advanced Nutrition snacks. For the meal that you prepare yourself, Slimfast recommends filling half of your plate with vegetables (such as green beans, carrots or broccoli); a quarter with lean protein (beef, chicken, pork or fish); and the remaining quarter with starch (whole wheat pasta or bread, brown rice, potatoes, or corn). Nothing is totally off-limits with Slimfast, including alcohol. The Slimfast website features recipes for alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks made with its shakes. Level of Effort: Medium You'll need Slimfast’s snack bars, meal bars, and shakes for most of your food, but you have some flexibility for the meal that you provide. Limitations: Slimfast’s selection of meal replacement bars and shakes is limited . You have more flexibility with snacks and with the meal you provide, which includes lean protein, vegetables, and a starch. Cooking and shopping: Snack bars, meal replacement bars, and shakes are grab-and-go. You only plan and prepare one meal a day, which cuts down on trips to the supermarket. Exercise: Daily exercise, including walking and strength training, is encouraged. The program doesn’t offer a specific workout plan. Of course we would always recommend doing SHAPE SHIFTING or other form of High Intensity Exercise, but Slimfast does not specify. Does It Allow for Dietary Restrictions or Preferences? Vegetarians and vegans: Vegetarians can have 4 to 6 ounces of a meat alternative, such as quinoa, tofu, lentils, or black beans, for their daily meal. Reduced- or low-fat dairy (yogurt, milk, cheese) is also OK. Vegans have fewer options, since most meal replacements are made with dairy or eggs, which aren't part of a vegan diet. Gluten-free: The Slimfast meal-replacement shakes and smoothies are labeled gluten-free. Other products are not labelled with regard to gluten, so check the ingredients list for possible sources of gluten, and contact the company if in doubt. Lactose-intolerant: If you have problems digesting lactose, you can combine Slimfast shake mixes with lactose-free milk or low-fat soy milk. Slimfast meal bars have 2 grams of lactose or less per serving. Slimfast Advanced Nutrition meal-replacement shakes are lactose-free. So, in simple terms does Slimfast work for weight loss? Yes! Structured programs, like this one, work for people who don't want to count calories. Studies show that people lose more weight when they eat portion-controlled meals or meal replacements. Low-calorie diets, such as the Slimfast diet or the use of one or two meal replacements, promote weight loss and can help you keep it off longer.
