Hi Tin,

I hear you're despair. My recommendation is not to follow a quick fix diet like Slimfast, but to go with something that actually helps you learn how to eat healthy. Some people go with a company that delivers meals such as Nutrisystem. Other count calories. A great place to start is to talk to your doctor. See what he suggests. The key is to learn how to eat less calories than you burn--that's how we lose weight. Let me know if you have questions or buzz over to the Diet Forum where you can ask all the questions you want or join a discussion. We'd love to have you.

That's an interesting article about Slim Fast Diet. I am definitely going to try it. I already had some information about Slim Fast Diet from another website. I am in my 50s and have not tried any diet programs yet. This seems to be easy.

Hi Billy Ray,

Are you following the diet to write about it from a first hand perspective? Be aware that Slim-Fast advises anyone who is pregnant, nursing, or under the age of 18 to consult a medical professional before beginning the program.

Hi Sarah,

Water is a great choice, and much healthier. Six pounds! Congratulations. The Slim Fast diet is easy-to-follow at the beginning of the program, and dieters tend to lose weight fast. Be sure to follow a good exercise program and take additional vitamin supplements. While Slim Fast has helped generations to lose weight, it's important to know:

Slim Fast shakes don't have much nutritional value
Extreme weight loss at the start of the diet is due to very limited caloric intake. (This can actually backfire when you return to consuming normal caloric amounts later.
Sugar in the shakes can elevate blood sugar levels leaving the dieter with intense cravings and/or fatigue when the sugar levels drop
The Slim Fast diet is that it is not sustainable as a lifetime health program.
