Slimfast

[lockdownrainbow]

Having 1 slimfast shake for lunch
How many snacks would i have?
If you have 2 shakes it says have x3 snacks of 100 calories each
Would i have 5 snacks ?

You should eat proper food.

Slimfast is shit...eat less and walk more....i despise the diet industry for all this faddy crap.

No it doesn't work like that.

The shakes contain the nutritional bits, the snacks are a perk to help you keep to the diet. By trying to replace the shakes with snacks you are losing the nutrition.

Ok i have normal breakfast
Then a shake for lunch
Snacks imbetween of no more than 300 calories over 3 snacks
Then normal tea

How many calories do you have for breakfast and dinner ? I’ve been having a shake for breakfast and a bar for lunch then a 600 or fewer calorie dinner

You need to actually count your calories. A proper breakfast could be anything from 200kcal-400kcal +
My fitness pal would be better than slimfast

My breakfast is 180 kcal
Tea 500 kcal
Lunch shake

Snack 3 100 kcal each

Slimfast only works on the short term. You'd be better off creating an account on My Fitness Pal and learning the calorific value of different foods. Then aim for 1200 calories a day plus exercise. MFP also gives you a breakdown of the nutritional value of what you are eating.

I chose slimfast as i eat way too much junk i am 5ft 1 and weigh 10st 10

Wouldn't you be better off following the Slimfast to the letter?

I am going to have 2 shakes from tomorrow

Good luck. Make sure you have a balanced meal, and if you can, eat fruit, yoghurt or a boiled egg or something instead of snacks.

Cereal bars and the like make you crave more of the same.

Thankyou my snacks involve chocolate

Go for a darker chocolate, as you get more of a chocolate hit from a small amount.

And when you stop having shakes and go back to eating “junk” again? I’m guessing it will all go back on.
Weight loss isn’t a quick fix, it’s a journey of learning how to make healthy choices.
I’m 5ft 6 and about 3.5 stone over weight. The plan I’m on had me on 2200 calories a day, 15000 steps and three strength work outs a week (that I can do from home using everyday objects). I’ve lost half a stone in just over three weeks.
May not be quick, but healthier and more sustainable in the long run I imagine.

You can diet and eat chocolate.
