Yes, I agree. I'm not looking to replace actual meals. I just wanted to know if drinking them would give some nutrition that I'm not currently getting that would help me lean up and lose faster without starving myself - because I am very opposed to doing that....I like to eat...and I am not looking for a quick fix. :)…

Thanks for everyone's advice and viewpoints. My main concern was that I would not be getting enough calories but I was interested mainly in nutritional value. Exactly what that is, I still don't know. This might be something I'd consider doing, not to help me lose weight because honestly I have a hard time eating enough…

Yeah, I can't see where drinking 2 shakes a day gives you enough calories if you are exercising even if you eat a huge meal and snacks. I have used Whey Designer Protein powder before and loved it. Might just use that again for one of my meals to get lots of protein.

Gonna watch this later but am very interested in seeing it.... We rarely buy meat. We hunt so we have plenty of venison, wild hog, catfish and some dove in the freezer. Although we are still buying some veggies and other things now our garden this year will be much larger and we'll be able to put back (can and freeze) lots…

agreed!

wow - you look amazing! Great job!

Actually there is a "best time" to eat a brownie, candy bar, etc. Immediately after your workout. I read this article the other day. Apparently just after you work out your body will store the candy, cookie, brownie up as energy instead of sugar - this article said it's almost impossible for your body to turn it into fat.…

When I was at my largest and needed a dress for a Christmas party the only thing I found that looked okay and hid my rolls was a black dress that had layers - it was that kind of see thru material on the outside that was kinda flowy...so it had like 5 layers going down...like they hung over the top of the next lawer. I'd…

venison (deer). Not sure you can get this in a store. We kill our own and process it. Maybe you should take up hunting.

I made this cake this past Saturday. I used a yellow butter cake mix and 1 can A&W Cream Soda. Wow - it was to die for! My step son and husband love yellow cake w/chocolate icing. I got a score of 9.5-9.9 from son and all my husband had to say was "you better never run out of yellow cake mix and cream soda!". I didn't put…

My recipe calls for 18.25 oz cake mix and 12 oz soda. I haven't made it yet. Gonna make it tomorrow for Sunday lunch. Using a yellow butter cake mix with a cream soda. A lot of the reviews I read said to add in 1-2 egg whites (no yokes) to make it rise like a normal cake. :) Good luck!

I don't think it would work well. One would end up getting hurt. When you are intimate with someone you give some of your love away..some of you. You might end up with nothing left to give. I'm not preaching or judging. I did this till I was 36. Then I decided to become abstinant until marriage. Too much heart ache and…

I'm 5'5 and my goal is 140 and then depending on how I look, I might go for 135. I'm 43 (44 in April). Also, I'm doing a little bit of weight training - not a lot but hoping to increas muscle and that weighs more than fat so when I get close to my goal it'll just depend on how I look and feel. Best of luck to you!!!

I have not done the actual Slim Fast diet, however, I do drink a comparable shake (HEB brand called Opti-Meal) for breakfast 90% of the time. It's so quick and easy to grab and low cal, etc. I have been counting my calories and all that stuff on here. If you have not filled out the fitness goals on here you should do so.…

That's awesome girl! I quit smoking the week before I turned 30. That was almost 14 years ago now. It's funny cause now I can't even picture myself holding a cigarette much less smoking one. yuck! But I did go through times early one when it was hard to overcome the craving. Obviously I did. Quitting smoking is probably…

W O W ! ! ! You are stunning. So happy for you....

Okay thanks! Wow it sounds like it's a tough one but will have much greater results. I know when I was doing 20 min aerobics (many years ago) it was fairly easy because it was so short but the results were great! I want that body again!!! I'm in!

I was reading the thread about this shred thing yesterday. What is it exactly....I've never heard of it. Of course, I haven't exactly been working out much lately aside from here and there at home. I'm very interested in doing this I think. Would like more info. Thanks!:smile:
