Anyone who knows me, knows that I am constantly on a diet. Sometimes I do very well. About two years ago, I dropped 62 pounds. I was running marathons. I was loving shopping for clothes. I was full of energy. But I’m an emotional eater and when my father died at Christmas time in 2009, everything fell apart around me.
• 3 Snacks: Three nourishing snacks a day such as Slim-Fast 100-calorie snack bars, fruit, nuts or veggies. I have been taking a banana, a pear and a container of yogurt for snacks each day. I love the convenience of simple easy to grab snacks.
- 2 Slim-Fast Shakes or Meal Bars per day.
- 1 Balanced Meal: Enjoy one balanced 500-calorie meal per day. As a rule, try to fill half your plate with veggies, a quarter with protein, and a quarter with whole grains.
• Creamy Milk Chocolate
• French Vanilla
• Rich Chocolate Royale
• Cappuccino Delight
• Strawberries N’ Cream
I have to tell you that the Cappuccino Delight is amazing. I have been pouring it over ice and drinking it in the morning on my way to work. And it tastes just like a Vanilla Iced Coffee! Yummm! I’ve also tried the Creamy Milk Chocolate and Strawberries N’ Cream and they are all very tasty and keep me satisfied for hours.
