Losing 15lbs by April with 2 Shakes a Day

[imported_heat123]

Anyone try this and have success with it? I want to start it doing 2 shakes a day to lose 15lbs by April. I've stepped up my exercise schedule too so hopefully it works!?!

Honestly the thing I do not like about this one is that it does not teach you to eat correctly. (by the way it is GREAT that you are exercising!) What happens when the average person stops drinking the shakes? They gain weight.

Honestly, with the exercise (cardio at 30 min in the heart rate zone so about 40 min 3-4 times a week) while cutting your calories and eating a balanced diet and you will lose the weight. It sounds like you are off to a great start!

Good Luck!

If your going to do a diet I would recommend Weight Watchers it is a really balanced weight loss program. I am working on my second week of it and I have lost 2lbs

I tried the trial free period and just could not keep track of my points. I will try slim fast first and if it doesn't work by April maybe WW again? I have a wedding in June so that would be another target date to lose by.

I will admit that keeping track of points is hard.... But it has become second nature to me ....

I used a golf ticker to keep track of my points. I hated writing it all down (but it did help me to eat healthier..hated writing down "bad" points) When I used the golf ticker I stayed on track with my points and it was only a couple of dollars.

I'm with Leah on this one..I love WW because it teaches a healthy lifestyle..so when a person stops going to meetings they are more likely to stay healthy.

Remember a habit takes 30 days to form. After that it is second nature.

Shakes just aren't meals. They aren't filling enough and they aren't even real food. I'd be very weary of any diet that doesn't involve eating food. I'm talking real food, not chemicals and fortified "nutrition".

I don't think I could a drinking diet. I like to chew food too much. I've had supplemental shakes like Spiru-tein and I just can't make a meal out of that. A snack, perhaps, but not rely on it as a meal.

Director Support ServicesI just wanted to let everyone know about a service that I've just started using. The website is www.directorsupportservices.com. This is a former P.C. director that has started a business to help directors with their Customer Newsletter, Consultant Newsletter, Bi-monthly E-training, website assistance and she is adding a recognition program. You can sign up for any of these services. Prices are based on the number of consutlants or customers you have. *she can also snail mail them for you. Plus she can do special flyers/invites if you need them.

She's been doing this for 18 months and has a staff of 3.

This has been an answered prayer for me and I wanted to pass this on to all of you. I can now concentrate on what will "make" me money.

Since I just started with her, if you have any questions or want samples of her services, just go to her website and direct your questions to her. This way I won't give out any incorrect answers. Tell her you heard about it from me.

Senior Director

Update... Week 1 so far it's not as bad as I thought it would be! As long as you have snacks in betweeen, it's very doable! Then eat a sensible dinner (I'm doing low carb meals). So with my upped exercise schedule of 4-5 walking hours a week I hope to reach 15lbs by April! Plus the motivating factor for me is having my cousin and friend do the "biggest loser" competition with me so we are going to weigh in each week and support eachother! So here's to a succesful 2 months!

Update... week 1 weigh in 2 lbs lost! Whoohooo!
