  • Thank yall so much, weight loss is so finicky. I'm going to watch my sodium and try to not get so bent outta shape.
  • Thanks for your suggestions!
  • I know I'm late answering but I have my calories burned for each of these workouts if any one is interested. I did this workout before and got my exact calories burned for each one using my Bodymedia fitness armband. I got great results after doing this 60 days.
  • Hey! I'm 5'2 and started my weight loss journey at 188 and I'm down to 138 as of yesterday. My goal is to be around 125 but i think I'll be amazed to see 130. As I have gotten closer to my goal it's become harder and my weight loss days are getting further apart and that can be frustrating. I've started strength training…
    in Hi! Comment by angiemotto April 2014
  • I just bought a Bodymedia it's been exactly a month. And it's one of best choices I've made. My weight gets stuck around 145 every time I get this low. I couldn't figure out what I'm doing wrong. So I bought the Bodymedia Link and a food scale. I was underestimating my total calories everyday. I was thinking my total…
  • Hey! Just wanted to add my feedback on slim fast. I started last year back in April. I lost about 50 pounds by this and doing Zumba workouts mostly from home and jogging. I didn't follow it exactly because thats just not enough calories. I snack in between the shakes. A lot of people say it doesn't feel them up but I…
  • Hey there! I also use Zumba on my kinect. Usually it will automatically recognize me and say welcome Angie. But sometimes it says welcome guest, then I have to sign in by my name. If it doesn't recognize you, you have to sign in manually. Is your not letting you sign in?
  • Hey! Just wanted to give my opinion. Slim fast has been great for me! I have lost 41 pounds so far since April. I think the key to using Slim Fast is drinking a lot of water, eating fresh fruits and veggies, and exercising. I don't agree with the 1 2 3 plan on their website because the calories are so low. But I usually…
  • Hey I'm looking for friends too. I sent you a request :-)
  • Thanks! I had the same exact question.
  • Hey there. I've been doing Zumba as my main exercise due to the amount of calories it burns in the short amount of time. I do about 2 sets of 45 mins each day. It took me a long time to work up to that but each session of 45 mins I burn about 400 to 500 depending on what intensity I feel like doing. It's actually quite…
  • You left out the part in between the two paragraphs where it says vitamins and minerals on the second part. The first is the actual ingredients and the second is the vitamins and minerals. So it reads:
  • The first ingredient is fat free milk. And not 40 ingredients in it, I think more like 17. Each are ingredients I can read and pronounce. I agree that you do need a ton of other healthy foods will drinking slim fast. Just drinking the shakes won't cut it.
  • I agree. I've been on slim fast for 5 months. I've lost 36 pounds doing so. This was actually with taking a break in between these months and eating regular foods. When I stopped slim fast, I ate like a normal person, replaced the slim fast with something comparable and didn't gain a pound back. Once I started back I kept…
  • Hey! I sent you a request. I've been on slim fast for about 5 months now and have had great success with it.
  • Congrats On your weight loss! You look great!
  • So glad I found this tread! I'm 5'2 and my heaviest about 4 months ago was 186. I'm now 151 and my goal is 135. Once I hit that I may or may not shoot for more. I've alway been on the the thick side but in a good way. Just in past couple years I packed on the pounds just settling down and being happy lol. No one believes I…
  • I was just wondering this question too! I was wondering if I was the only one! Lol. Now I force myself to get on there once a day as soon as I wake up that's when I'm the lightest. I'm always a pound heavier in the afternoon,it's so annoying
  • Thanks y'all. If you ever see an app called livestrong that's the app that had me on that less of calories. It's very popular on App Store. They have a free version i was using, if anyone runs across it. I'm curious to know if anyone else has had that problem. I switched it to 1 pound a week instead of two and it still…
  • Thanks you guys for replying. I've been wondering for past couple weeks. My friend said its okay to eat 800 but I wasn't so sure. I never eat 800 calories I always eat more but after subtracting my exercise its always around 800 or below. I'm losing weight but I want to be healthy doing it cause I don't want to gain it…
  • As long as you eat a ton of veggies and fruits, incorporate other healthy foods, drink lots of water and exercise daily, there isn't anything unhealthy about adding Slim fast into your diet. You may feel a certain way about the shakes, but I have made it work. I love my diet plan, I'm full of energy. And due to many…
  • Congrats on your weight loss! I remember when I first lost a little weight it felt so great! Adjusting to any life style change is not going to happen overnight or even in a couple weeks. There was a lot of foods I had to completely take out of my daily foods but you have to live a little. If you give up everything you…
  • I definitely agree with this comment. At least the part about counting calories. Even though I do incorporate the slim fast plan into my daily life, I have also since day one used an app to count my calories to lose 2 pounds a week. I think without my handy calorie counter I might not have had so much success with my…
  • I have never broken out while drinking Slim fast or ever heard of anyone else breaking out. Thats def something to look into but I don't think you will automatically start having pimples and cysts just because you drink slim fast. Just wanted to post my comment because if I have never tried Slim fast that would have def…
  • Hey! I don't consider Slim Fast a diet fad or starving yourself or losing water weight for 4 months, etc. I started on the slim fast diet about 6 months ago. I have tried a lot of different things prior including "just eating right", taking raspberry ketones, and trying a few other supplements from GNC. Nothing worked for…
  • Hey there! Just want to give you my personal experience with Slim Fast. I started my weight loss journey about 6 months ago. I decided to try the Slim Fast diet because I have personally tried just eating healthy but i always went over my calorie count or didn't realize how many calories or fattening the foods were. But…
  • Hey there! I'm not exactly new to this site but I am new to the forums! Good luck and nice to meet you!
  • I would if you are still doing it!
