Weight loss shakes have been added to a number of diet programs. Leave it to the Jenny Craig’s of the world to see a marketing opportunity to make an extra buck. Let’s be clear. The problem is NOT the diet companies that make HUGE sums from promises of quick belly fat weight loss. No, it’s us who so desperately want to lose weight and can’t seem to do it. That’s the reason why weight loss surgery is gaining in popularity. Some of us, no matter how much we diet, simply have bodies that are so efficient that everything we eat seems to get stored.
But the noise around the weight loss industry makes this difficult situation even worse. Weight loss is a multi-billion dollar industry and despite what most companies say, they don’t really care if you lose weight, only that you keep paying them. A good example are the Ensure(c) brand nutrition shake. Anyone that has reached the point that sugery was done, needs to understand that protein is critical to health.
Good protein, such as Unjury(c) brand or Pro-Energy, can deliver usable protein at a much more affordable cost than most of what you can find at the supermarket or vitamin store. The complaint from most people has always been taste. Thing is, these 2 brands taste great. So much so that you don’t even need to mix a weight loss shake but simply sprinkle the unflavored on other food you eat. Believe me, you won’t even know it’s there.
Try it.
IN ORDER TO HAVE SUCCESS FOR LIFE AND CONTINUE ON A JOURNEY THAT MOST ONLY DREAM ABOUT YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER THE THREE (3).
EAT: THE EAT 3 MEALS PER DAY, OR IN SOME CASES YOU CAN HAVE 5 SMALL MEALS DURING THE DAY. DON’T GRAZE. GRAZING IS WHY YOU HAD GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY. PLAN YOUR MEALS. PLANNING IS THE BEST WAY NOT TO OVER EAT. READ THE INGREDIANTS ON THE CONTAINERS. LOW FAT, LOW CARBS, LOW OR NO SUGARS.
DRINK: YOU MUST DRINK AT LEAST 64OZ OF LIQUIDS PER DAY. WHY? HAVING GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY, WE HAVE THE TENDENCY OF DEHYDRATING OURSELVES. LIQUIDS CAN CONSIST OF THE FOLLOWING: WATER, FLAVORED WATERS, BROTHS, DECAF COFFEE AND TEAS, 1 CUP OF SKIM OR 1% MILK AND 2 S/F POP CYCLES.
EXERCISE: THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT ON CONTINUING LOOSING WEIGHT. YES, YOU WILL LOSE WEIGHT JUST BECAUSE YOU HAD SURGERY, HOWEVER TO TONE YOURSELF AND TO FIRM UP THOSE AREAS THAT HAVE LOOSE SKIN YOU NEED TO EXERCISE. WALKING IS THE EASIEST, AS YOU CAN WALK ANY WHERE ANY TIME. IN NICE WEATHER YOU CAN WALK OUTSIDE, AND DURING BAD WEATHER YOU CAN WALK AT THE MALL. GYMS ARE FANTASTIC. GET THE INSTRUCTOR AT THE GYM TO COME UP WITH A WORKOUT PLAN FOR YOU. LET THEM KNOW THAT YOU HAD GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY. MOST QUALITY GYMS ARE ALREADY WORKING WITH GASTRIC PEOPLE.
SO REMEMBER THE THREE (3). USE COMMON SENSE WHEN EATING AND EXERCISING. FOLLOW WHAT YOUR SURGERY AND DIETITIAN HAVE PRESCRIBED FOR YOU
This is the first post to see if the program is working as expected. Over time, we can tweak it and make it look exactly like you want.
