| Mimi369's Full Review: Slim Fast Shakes |
My youngest daughter gave birth four and a half weeks ago to a healthy baby girl. The weight gain was just a bit above average. My daughter was a mere 125 pounds on her five foot 5 inch frame prior to her pregnancy. She loved wearing the latest tight jean fashions. Getting her figure back was of the utmost importance to her, second to the health of her daughter. On the day she delivered, she weighed in at a wopping 177 pounds!! We all knew that she had her work cut out for her in order to return to those designer jeans she adored and looked so darned cute in.
Slimfast Shakes have been a large part of her weight loss success story. In just a little over four weeks, she has lost over 30 pounds. Of course, much of the initial weight loss was from the birth of the (baby six pounds, two ounces), amniotic fluids, and water that she retained towards the end of her pregnancy. In total, probably a good twenty pounds was lost just after giving birth.
After the first two weeks, my daughter felt that she basically had twenty five pounds to exercise and diet off of her frame. She tried skipping breakfast, and only eating salads with low fat dressing for lunch. Then there was the carrot sticks phase and soup for lunch. These methods were working, but not fast enough for my darling child. One day, during grocery shopping, she put a large can of Slimfast Shakes into the shopping cart. Chocolate has always been her favorite flavor of choice, therefore, she picked the Dutch chocolate.
In the past couple of weeks, she has had a Slimfast Shake for breakfast, one for lunch and a very light supper. My family tends to eat quite healthy meals, with little or no fried foods, low sodium and high fiber. This plan seems to be working extremely well for my daughter. In fact, now she can fit into her sister's size nine tight designer jeans! A couple more weeks and a few more delicious Slimfast Shakes and this lovely lady will have her girlish figure back!!
I must admit here, that her youth has a lot to due with the success of her weight loss, plus the perseverence and hard work that she is putting into this plan. My advice to anyone looking to lose a few unwanted pounds, is to try the plan offered by the makers of Slimfast Shakes.
It is important to remember to eat at least one sensible meal each day, although Slimfast Shakes do provide 19 essential vitamins and minerals. If you are planning to lose more than 30 pounds, it is also advised that you consult a doctor before using the Slimfast Shakes. If you are pregnant or a nursing mother, DO NOT USE this product.
I highly recommend Slimfast Shakes as a successful means to losing weight. It is working in my daughter's life, and I feel confident that it can work in your's, too. Be smart, eat healthy, and be slim by using the variety of flavored Slimfast Shakes.
