Frequently Asked Questions

QUESTION:
when is the best time to drink weight loss shakes?
i bought these new weight loss shakes at cos co and it says that it can be a one or two meal replacement...when is the best time to drink it?...skip breakfast and drink it...skip lunch and drink it...or skip dinner and drink it?
- ANSWER:
  I would drink the weight-loss shake for breakfast AND lunch...
  
  You see, the shake will (most likely) give you a good amount of energy as well. You don't want to be too energized at night, do you? Keep in mind, however, that you must eat a small dinner (maybe cereal, a small salad, etc) so your stomach will be less full when you go to bed!
QUESTION:

I used to love scan diet, but they don't make it anymore... What is the best weight loss shake that you mix with water not milk? What reallly works and keeps you from getting hungry?

QUESTION:
I am only having weight loss shakes for breakfast and dinner, can I loose weight fast?
I am on a mini diet and was wondering if I just slim fast shakes for breakfast then tea for mid morning snack and later a slimfast shake for dinner will that help me loose weight within a week. I weigh about 115 and I want to loose at least 5 pounds. Can it work?
- ANSWER:
QUESTION:
I have a question about weight loss shakes?
I have these shakes that are for weight loss. They are not specifically labeled protein shakes so keep that in mind. That have 170 cal. in each and 10 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber. If I drink these but don't work out will I just gain weight anyways because they have a lot of protein? I wanted to substitute two meals with a shake and eat a regular dinner (because I love dinner )
- ANSWER:
  Yes you will gain weight. The shakes are to be used with exercise. The best thing would be to have a light breakfast such as plain toast and an apple, have a light lunch such as a salad, and eat a small dinner. If you get hungry through the day have a snack such as a few peanuts or a snack bar (the south beach diet taste the best). You do have to exercise though. Start small. Do ten sit ups a day and go for a 15 min walk. After two weeks do 15 set ups and a 30 min walk. If you have use of a pool exercise there. Water puts less stress on the body and provides resistance. It is a great form or exercise. I hope this helps you.
QUESTION:
has anyone had any of those weight loss shakes?
has anyone had any of those weight loss shakes? do they work? and do they taste ok?
or is they any other weight loss system that worked for anyone? ( combined with excersice and healthy diet ) something to help speed up the process. just had baby 8 months ago and have just finished breast feeding.
- ANSWER:
  Probably not. Why? They don't fill you up and they are suppose to be a whole meal! Why replace good tasting fruits and veggies for a shake? Just as long as you eat health and are active, I am sure you can lose the weight you put on.
  
  GOOD LUCK!
QUESTION:
Weight loss shakes without any dairy?
I'm looking to start drinking some weight loss shakes but the only problem is, I'm allergic to dairy (Not lactose intolerant), and I don't know of any shakes that have soy in them.

I just need to know a few brands that are safe and well known that I can use without any adverse side effects.
- ANSWER:
  I would really recommend making your own shakes.
  
  Get some low-fat soymilk, add a banana and some hersheys dark syrup (no dairy there... I too am dairy intolerant... casein actually). You can add a raw egg for extra protein (controversial, I know, use the highest quality free range organic eggs you can find; the salmonella risk is extremely low and besides they are so much healthier) and also it helps it foam up better. Or you can put in frozen strawberries or blueberries instead of the syrup, that will cut down on the refined sugar.
  
  Hemp milk is also a good choice... delicious really, and high protein... fairly high fat but it's the good kind of fat and shouldn't interfere with your weight loss if you can keep the refined sugar out of your shakes. Hemp milk can be expensive in the cartons (-5 a quart), but you can bring the cost down if you buy hemp seeds/nuts online or at your local health food store and make your own in the blender. I used to do that.
  
  If you're looking for the appetite suppressant aspect of the shakes, I'd recommend just finding one in pill form and taking it at the same time you take the shakes.
  
  Good luck! I hope your shakes are delicious (they should be). For even more fun buy a juicer and start juicing vegetables. Talk about a "wow" in terms of the energy you get...!
QUESTION:
How do weight-loss shakes work?
I know there's vitamins and about 200 calories, but how does it make you lose weight?
- ANSWER:
  They work by reducing your calorie intake per day to less than that of the calories you burn per day.
  That's how ALL weight is lost no matter what plan you're on!
  Why not try a different plan where you can actually eat food and still watch your calories?
  There's a new plan called The Logic Diet that would be perfect for you!

QUESTION:
Experience of weight loss shakes: are they worth it?
Is there any point in using them when after a while you'll want to go back to solid/ real food? As you'll just put the weight back on?
- ANSWER:
  If you want to lose weight it needs to a lifestyle change...meaning you need to eat healthy well balanced meals for the rest of your life! You can always splurge every now and then and eat something not so healthy as long as it's not a daily thing! I did the slimfast shakes and did lose about 30 pounds doing it but then stopped losing and returned to eating food and eventually gained it all back and then some! The only thing that has worked for me is changing the entire way that I ate food cutting back or out soda from my diet drinking lots of water and staying active! I do drink shakes every now and then but they are whey protein shakes with lots of fruits in them so they are a lot better for me and are a great meal when I don't feel like cooking anything!

  I own a health and nutrition business, have taught fitness and have done beauty pageants. You don't include your height and weight, so I have a hard time being able to answer your question well.
  There are good shakes and bad shakes out there. I don't like any that list sugar as the first ingredient - but you also need to stay away from anything that has nutrasweet in it.

QUESTION:
Will drinking 3 weight loss shakes a day and exercising daily help me lose weight?
- ANSWER:
  it's all about the calories...burn more than you consume and you will lose weight.
  
  One thing that works for me is: before I eat, I drink a large glass of water, then if I'm still hungry, I won't eat as much as I would have.
  
  It's better to eat 5-6 small meals than 2 or 3 regular meals each day.
  
  also, fyi:
  
  1 pound = 3500 calories.
  
  If you burn more calories than you eat, you will lose weight.
  
  ie, if you eat 2000 calories per day and burn 2500, you will lose 1 pound every week.
  
  the average person burns 1000-1500 calories per day, just being alive.
  
  power walking can burn 200-500 calories per hour.
  exercise bike can burn 200-600 calories per hour.
  swimming can burn 100-800 calories per hour.
  jogging/running can burn 300-1200 calories per hour.
  
  Also, try not to eat within 3-4 hours of going to sleep.
  
  *********VERY IMPORTANT************
  
  when trying to lose weight, very important to drink lots and lots of water ! ! !
  You should drink at least 10 glasses per day, like 1 glass every hour !
  
  This helps your body get rid of the fat when you are burning calories.
QUESTION:
i would like to drop a few pounds by drinking homemade weight loss shakes any good ideas and how many in a day?
i work with 1 year olds so i am always moving and i walk in the evenings so im very active i just need a little help
- ANSWER:
  To lose weight you have to consume less carolies than you expend.
  
  You did not supply adequate info to provide an answer. we do not know how many calories are in your shakes or how many calories you burn a day.
  
  Losing weight by drinking shakes is generally foolish. Usually they do not provide adequate nutrition inlcuding fiber. They do not teach you how to eat wisely and make sustainable choices.

QUESTION:
Weight loss shakes/commerical on tv?
I saw a tv commerical tonight that was for weight loss shakes. It said you get 2 weeks free and all you need to pay is shipping and handling. I didn't write the website down and I can't remember it. Does anyone know what the website is?
- ANSWER:
  Don't do it.
  Most of the free trial offers turn out not to be so. You have to give credit card details in order to get the 'free' sample, this leaves you open to regular amounts being deducted and unable to contact the company. Some have had as much as to pay for shipping for the 'free' sample.
  Many have had to cancel credit cards to stop losing money for something that is useless that they do not want.
  
  The 'evidence' is from fictional bloggers and the photographs are digitally enhanced. There is no backing from celebs either, some are suing the company for misrepresentation.

when i get to the weight i i like and stop taking celebrity slim will my weight come back on ?
will i loss weight on my legs, thighs, stomach, hips and head with celebrity slim ?
please help asap
- ANSWER:
  Eating healthy does not always lead to weight loss. Their are other factors. Calories play a role and so does metabolism. If you eat less calories than you burn during the day over time you will loose weight.Every ones metabolism is different. If you check my sources you can find what one of the 4 metabolic body types you fall into which will dictate the type of foods you are drawn to and the types of foods your body has a problem digesting.
  
  You may loose weight by using a weight loss shake but all shakes are not created equal. Before starting on any change of diet get the advise of your doctor. To help your weight loss it s advisable to also include an exercise program you can keep up with. This will slowly help you make a lifestyle change. Also by working out you will increase your metabolism by gaining lean muscle. This will help you burn more fat at a resting state. If you do not make a lifestyle change while loosing weight to maintain your weight loss you will contiinue to need the shake. You should have more time in your day to add a short workout because the time to prepare and eat the meal is now out of your schedule.
  
  Make sure your weight loss shake is a meal replacement shake. Not just a protein shake.
  
  I have not used Celebrity Slim but I have used this product and my review I will say it is the best product backed by science and best value for the money spent because the products are synergistic. YOR MPR supplies nutritional balance and a low Glycemic Index with 20 grams of protein, and 22 essential vitamins and minerals. But Try it for your self it comes with 30 day money back guarantee.
  
  So which flavor did you like best vanilla or chocolate? Both of them are good
  
  What do I mean meal replacement shake? It has only 140 calories per serving, this shake packs proteins, vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants into the most convenient, calorie-controlled, hunger reducing combination. No calories are wasted and it tastes delicious so you don’t feel deprived.
  
  Before protein and carbs can be used for energy and lean muscle growth, stored enzymes must be released from the digestive system. As we age and undergo stress, enzyme production slows down. Supplementation helps replenish the body’s natural supply of enzymes to improve absorption, assimilation, and delivery of vital nutrients to the system. This ultimately improves digestion, energy levels, and helps to maintain a healthy body weight. YOR MRP features the latest development in patented all natural enzyme formulas.
  
  Patented enzyme blends AMINOGEN and CARBOGEN boost the strength and energy obtained from protein, and maximize the use of complex carbs so they aren’t stored as fat. These pre-calculated meals eliminate the need to worry about food during the day for people loosing weight.

QUESTION:
Do the slim fast or weight watchers shakes work to kick start weight loss?
I know.....I know I have to change my lifestyle in order to lose weight, and I have a pretty good start, but have not seen any results. I have pretty much cut out fast food and junk foods. I eat salads, fresh fruits and veggies a lot more than before. I am drinking water like crazy and am exercising moderately by walking, bike riding or tennis daily. I have started lifting light weights and doing sit ups/crunches. I just want to jump start and see some results within 2 weeks. I have been doing so for about 3 weeks already. Do you think two weeks of shakes is OK and will it help? I would love to drop about 10 pound in 2 weeks. ( I started about 3 weeks ago) I am open to all forms of sincere advice. Thanks.
- ANSWER:
  They do to an extent, if you use them 2x per day with a healthy dinner it will shrink your stomach...however they have a lot of calories, you could have some cereal, coffee and fruit for the same calories (measure the cereal and use skim milk)
  I lost some weight with them...but don't rely on them for a long time.
  watch what fruit you are eating some are fattening, don't have juice!
  Good luck, it's hard.

- ANSWER:
  Now whenever it comes to weight loss you should follow these simple steps that have helped me tremendously lose weight, pretty quickly if you ask me. And I've been trying to lose weight forever and finally found the correct system to help me out...
  
  The first thing you need to do is about 30 minutes of cardio everyday, try to get at least 3-4 days of that people...Exercising is one very important issue you don't want to be lazy in.
  
  The second thing you should realize is that you cannot eat everything in sight that probably got you looking the way you are right now or the reason you want to lose weight. The pounds come with the food you eat. How do you stop yourself from eating and get a little boost with ousting fat from the food you eat? Simple...
  
  The third and final step is the correct natural weight loss supplement. For me, I found Proactol to be the best. Now this isn't aimed towards lazy people that want to take a pill and sit on the couch all night and day. These are to tremendously help out with dieting and exercising. For me they were great because with my diet, they basically take out up to 28% of the fat you intake. Not to mention the killer appetite suppressant Proactol is. Every day you will fall under your calorie intake and find yourself one more day closer to your goal.
  
  These steps really worked for me, you should try them out for yourself even if you want to lose very little or that extra mile. Also at the time of my 3 month supply purchase of Proactol, I saved a lot of money on it at theweightlossplace .com
  
  Good luck and I hope this helps you out for your weight loss goals.

QUESTION:
Are there any weight loss shakes or diet pills or anything out there that really work with fast results at gmc?
Need to loose 80lbs. by december
- ANSWER:
  You can't rely on weight loss products alone. There's no weight loss product that magically makes weight disappear, seeing as how the Law of Conservation of Mass states that you can't destroy matter. Make sure that you have a good diet and exercise well, 80 lbs is a bit much to lose without liposuction or installing a cosmic black hole in your thighs.
  Edit: And no, I'm not advocating liposuction because frankly, it's creepy. Just find something to motivate you to exercise, maybe have a friend go to the gym with you.
QUESTION:
Homemade weight loss shakes.......?
Any one out there have a few good recipes for homemade weight loss shakes? not too much bananas (allergic to them) and fruit or veggies, yogurt, milk, and any other addatives...any help is welcome
- ANSWER:
  You might want to check out the recipes on the vitamix site.
  http://vitamix.ahoy.com/recipe/recipe_search.cgi
  
  You can select health classification like low carb, low cholesterol etc., and meal type i.e. beverages. You just click search and you'll get a whole variety of recipes with nutritional information.
  
  You don't need to own a vitamix for most of the recipes, but if you want to make shakes a part of your life, it's worth investing in one of their mixers.
  We have one for 8 years already and I use ours at least once a day - only way to get veggies into my kids, because I can sneak them into fruit smoothies without them tasting them.
  
  Good luck with your weightloss plan. Whole food shakes are the way to go.
QUESTION:
Weight loss shakes?
I am trying to GAIN muscle weight and we have a lot of these weight loss shakes sitting around. I noticed they have a decent amount of protien and a lot vitamins. Can i keep eating my regular amount of food and add these to my diet for some extra calories and gain weight, or is there a chemical in them that actually makes your body lose weight? Basically, are they meal replacements or actual weight burners?

thanks
- ANSWER:
  From what i know about shakes there isnt a chemical in it that will make you lose weight. Its just a balanced meal that helps you control your portions. If you are going to drink them along with your current eating style it will help you gain muscle but you have to work out or it will turn to FAT. and thats not what you want....Hope that helps
QUESTION:
Are weight loss shakes really effective?
(i.e. Slim Fast, Boost, etc.)? I've been having one for breakfast, a light lunch (like a salad) and one for dinner (and lots of water) for about a week now and I feel kinda bloated. I thought I was supposed to be LOSING weight, not gaining it?
- ANSWER:
  Here is what you need to do, if you are serious about losing weight and keeping it off. Eat 6 small meals a day about every 4 hours. Here what that will do for you, your metabolism will increase (i.e. Loose weight) and you will have more engry. If you go on a diet and eat less, your metabolism will slow down and store to fat. That is why diets dont work. Only the size of your fist, carbs (examples:baked potato, pasta, oatmeal, beans, corn, melon, apples, fat free yogurt, whole wheat breads)in one and protien (examples:chicken breast, swordfish, shrimp, turkey breast) in the other. You can also eat vegetables and salads with any meal, they dont have none or little fat). 30min cardo exercise every day. Any of these(examples: walking, jogging, swimming,running, biking, ect), Monday cardo, tues upper body (arms: curls, tricep extensions,pull ups, front press)(abdominals: leg pull crunch, leg raises), (chest: bench press, butterfly, pullover)(shoulders: front press, arm pullover, cross county skier machine)(back:seated row, lat pull downs, back extension)(YOU DONT HAVE TO DO IN ONE DAY, mix it up) wed cardo, thurs lower body (legs: leg pull,leg press, squats, lounges) fri cardo, sat upper. Sunday eat anything you want and dont exercising, you do this on sunday so your body doesnt go into starvation mode. YOU NEED TO TAKE SUNDAY OFF. If you stilck with this you will have a great body. also drink aleast 8oz of water daily! Stay away from Mcdonals, Wendys, ect because there is nothing good for you on the menu's even the salads are bad (beaon bits, cheeze, dressing, ect) Good Luck
QUESTION:
ARE THERE WEIGHT LOSS PROTEIN SHAKES OUT THERE?
I WANTED TO KNOW, ARE THERE WEIGHT LOSS PROTEIN SHAKES OUT THERE, THAT CAN REPLACE MEALS?
IF SO, HAVE YOU TRIED IT, OR KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS? THANK YOU. PEACE AND BLESSINGS
- ANSWER:
  I have been through it all and know what's it about. The main thing is to stick in there. You can't be an addict to food and never exercise if you want to live a healthy life and keep the weight off. I've worked out, done every diet, and all types of classes.
  
  Nothing works, besides dedication and intelligence towards the subject of losing weight.
  
  First, depending on how much weight you need to lose, your diet is the first concern. You can't eat 10,000 calories a day and expect the weight to come off, even if you are exercising a lot. Which brings us to the next thing. Duh, Exercising...
  
  This is a must especially if you need to a lot of weight. Get at least 30 mins of some good hardcore exercising. Do some cardio, in the long run, it's good for the heart.
  
  However, I find the most hardest part of losing weight/keeping it off, in my diet. It's so hard to keep your fingers out of the cookie jar or those chocolate goodies. I've found a great addition to help any one out, it's a natural weight loss supplement called Proactol. Now don't get all crazy on me and say diet pills don't work. That is true, but not in this case. This one isn't meant to burn pounds while you sit on the couch. It's an appetite suppressant, along with being a fat binder. I saved money on the pills at theweightlossplace dot com along with getting some good info. It basically makes those fingers not go towards the cookie jar. For me it's the best pill I've tried and I've tried cupboards full. Now this doesn't mean you have to follow my foot steps but I've successfully lost roughly 70 pounds and keeping it off til this day.
  
  Well good luck and remember what I said, Dedicate.

QUESTION:
Weight Loss Shakes, Diet Shakes?
Ok, So i am trying to lose weight. I have a weight loss shake of a morning, no lunch then dinner of a night as i dont get home till late its not much. Will this help me lose weight? Or does someone have a plan that has worked for them? When and how should i be drinking the shakes? Anything would be great!
- ANSWER:
  You should join a sport that helps you work out ALOT. Like swimming, or just go on the treadmill alot. Yes shakes help you alot, you should probably buy a powdery protein mix do add in your shakes, its good for you and can make it easier for you too lose weight. I would suggest you dont use the frozen foods that help you lose weight, that they have numerous amounts of commericials about. They may help you lose weight, but what happens after you lose weight? You cant stop eating the frozen foods or your just going to start getting fat again. You just need to learn by yourself too eat healthy. You might want to leave post-it notes all over your house. Just remeber, eating healthy is the main way to lose wait, some people just can't get that into there heads.

QUESTION:
HMR weight loss shakes???
I need information on HMR weightloss shakes. where can you buy them? what are the prices? are there any other weight loss shakes as good as them? i live in costa rica and can have friends from the USA bring stuff down but i need ideas on stuff they could bring (healthy or for weight loss). any good vitamin enriched drink packages.
- ANSWER:
  You can order them online. From either hmrprogram.com, or many other distributors, like ihmonline.com, etc. I think they are the BEST shakes available. Others like you can buy at GNC have a lot more calories, etc. Plus, when you order these, they come with the vitamin supplements that must be taken, you don't have to buy any. I've been on them for 8 weeks and lost 37 pounds! E-mail me w/other ?s

QUESTION:
weight loss shakes-what is healthy and affordable (meal replacement) shake. ?
I'm looking to gain nutrients and get healthier as well as shed some un healthy fat lbs.any suggestions.
- ANSWER:
  Since you're asking about meal replacements, I've always like the Myoplex brand. You can pick up a box of 40 or 50 packets (for shakes) for about - 0, at just about any GNC or Rite Aid. So it works out pretty cheap per each one. Then all you need is a blender and some milk.
  
  I've tried all the different meal replacements out there (I'm not a big breakfast person, but I need nutrition in the morning). I think that Myoplex is the best tasting and best quality in the price range.
QUESTION:
Weight Loss - Doe those Shakes work ?
I wouldn't say I'm over weight, I am pretty tall at 190cm (6'3") and weigh about 90kgs/ 200lbs. But as I hit 30 I am getting a bit of fat on the front of my belly. At the same time I am sick of paying 15 bucks a day for Lunch.

I play sport (cricket and social footy) , do free weights and try and run a couple of times a week.

I am thinking about substituting lunch for one of those weight loss shakes. Not as a crash diet but just to help me out and save me having to go out of the office to find lunch !!

Have you ever used one and how did it go ? I am thinking of maybe Protien shakes with Skim Milk and hit the weights a bit more often ??

If you spam I will report you !
- ANSWER:
  Yes the shakes work but you need to combine them with a calorie controlled diet. Go to your local pharmacy to get some more info before you take this on.

QUESTION:
What are the best weight loss shakes out there?
Hi I am wanting to lose weight fast, and i heard that weight loss shakes are really good for that. i know people who have done lighter life but i cant afford to spend that amount of money a week.
i was wondering if you know of any shakes out there that are a reasonable price that work just as good as if not better than lighter life shakes.
i have looked on ebay but alot of them are going for hundreds of pounds.

no bad nasty comments, if you dont like what i am asking dont read.

thank you

i know the health risks and that but yeah any help would be brilliant thanks

xx
- ANSWER:
  I have done the lighter life and tried god know's how many diets before hand, and none work as fast as the lighter. You could always try the cambridge diet as that is the same as lighter life but cheaper the only problem is the food sources don't have as much nutrients and minerals in them that you're body need as the lighter life does. Other than that not many diets are a quick weight loss style they are all slow time. No other diets apart from ligter life and cambridge are abstinence diets.
  All the rest change the way you eat and incorperate shakes rather than put you into abstinence. xx
