Meal replacement shakes

[dustarr73]

If you are using these now.And you have one for breakfast and lunch.
What time do you have your evening meal.

I’ve started using shakes yesterday and had evening meal last night (I say evening meal, it was carrot sticks and houmous) at 6ish.

Today I had a bowl of salted popcorn and an apple at 6ish too.

I don’t seem to have enough calories left for a proper dinner.

I’ve had 2 shakes, some almonds and cashews, fruit, youghurt, half a cooked chicken slice and the popcorn and I’m only slightly in a calorie deficit.

Oh I’m logging everything I eat on my Fitbit app. What an eye opener it is though! Can see how I was easily going over on calories every day.

I did it for about a month and lost nearly a stone. Then I stopped and went back to eating like an absolute animal and have pilled it all back on. (emotional eating!)

I have 2 thoughts.

1. Quick fix, could be good if you go about it right (i.e. eat healthy after and don't eat like a starved dog after). If you need sometime to grab an can't cook / plan etc. they'll be good.

T. they are full of shit and you're better off eating actual healthy food probably, but it's a lot of effort lol.

I’m using Almased and it’s very filling. I had a shake at 8am yesterday and another at 1.30pm and only a coffee in between and I was no more hungry at 1.30 than when I start the day with a big bowl of porridge.

I’ll keep up with Almased or try Yokebe, they seem similar.

Am just about to try the almased shakes. Has good reviews on amazon

Im trying the shakes because i just want to start eating regular.
My downfall is not eating all day and ordering a takeaway.

But i have cut out the snacks and im drinking plenty of water.

I use shakes every day, have done for 18 months and love them. Was very sceptical to start but love them, the convenience and the results I now have a business based around them too! Safe to say a convert to them!
