People, the new Slim-Fast plan is sensible and it seems like it's actually working for me! Remember the old days when the idea was to replace your breakfast and lunch with a 200 calorie shake, be starving an hour later, and then ravenously consume an entire large pizza all by yourself because you hadn't eaten all day? Fuck the "sensible meal," I was ready to eat a horse, the neighbor, everything on the menu at the local Choke n Puke, whatever might cross my path!
Well, enough other people must have felt that way to prompt Slim Fast to make some excellent changes.
The Optima shakes have far less sugar, so your blood sugar doesn't spike.
You combine the shakes and bars with real, honest-to-God/dess FOOD!
You are eating every 2.5 to 3 hours so you never get Fuck Everything And Eat The Refrigerator Syndrome.
I've gone from 238 pounds to 232 in a week. However, to be honest, on one of those days I only consumed 580 calories. I was very depressed and having trouble making myself eat. So it's kind of a cheat. Without that bad day, I would probably currently be at perhaps 234. To any rate, it seems to be working. As the guy who dove off the top of the skyscraper said on the way down,
"so far so good!"

Good for you! I always thought chocolate Slim-Fast tasted good. Maybe it has some sort of amphetamine in it. When I wanted to lose weight and flatten my stomach more, my boyfriend said to try jump rope. I laughed and made some remark about hopscotch... but you know, it actually works really well. 'Course I combined it with diet too, and laid off the Mountain Dew indefinately. But I noticed it's easier on you than running. Good luck!
Of course if I tried to jump rope at this point I would shake the whole community! Actually, my knees aren't good enough. I've been speed walking but have got to get back to doing aqua aerobics. It doesn't burn a lot of calories but does tone things up. Maybe if I do both the speed walking and the water stuff it will help.
And watch my damn diet. Grrr! That's the hard part.
That and admitting that my stomach is 41 years old, just like the rest of me! ;-)
I LUV SlimFast!!!!!!!!!!! That and meth work real good for me as long as the little blu men dont come agen!!!!!!
