By managing your body: lose, keep or win. What you are looking for is the right mix of calories and proper nutrition that will give you high hunger control and last for 3+ hours along with a reasonable exercise program. You’re not looking to starve (fast) or have to run 5 miles a day because you can’t sustain that regimen long term.
 
How do you do it? First, make sure that you really want to lose weight and get the body shape you want. An ounce of commitment is worth a pound of promises, understand your choices. Most diet regimens fail because the person will not be consistent and follow their program; so they blame the program. You want to avoid this trap, it is negative and reinforces a bad image of yourself.
 
Here’s a simple map of how different foods affect your body chemistry.

• Refined/Simple Carbohydrates: Sugars, white breads, rice and pasta, fruit juice and white potatoes.High control hunger AIM only lasts 10 minutes – this is what produces constant cravings.
• Complex Carbohydrates: Fruits, vegetables. and whole grain cereals (whole oats, brown rice, pasta and whole wheat bread). produces low lasting hunger control 30 – 60 minutes.
• Lean protein: chicken, fish, lean beef, egg whites, and soy products.Half lasting hunger control 2-3 hours
• Complex Carbs + Lean Protein: Meal Replacement Shakes, Balanced Meals, and Balanced Snacks.High lasting hunger control 3+ hours.THIS IS THE BEST.

If the key to reduced calories and personalized balanced nutrition in the right mix. The question is how to do it consistently and at a price that is sustainable? The answer is a flexible program of meal replacement shakes, supplements, and healthy balanced meals.
 
The Power of Protein and Your Body’s Needs
Balanced nutrition means that you get what you need when you need it and that your body can absorb it properly. If your body needs sugars, fats, etc. The problem is that processed foods are not nutritionally balanced and by their nature are difficult to customize.
 
The main component of effective weight loss is protein. Protein is what makes you feel full and builds muscle. Build Muscle – Build your metabolism to burn calories – A pound of muscle burns 14 calories a day. There are different types of proteins: animal proteins and vegetable proteins at a high level. While your body absorbs both, animal proteins are harder to digest quickly and your body doesn’t absorb all of their nutritional value. Plant proteins, such as soy, provide protein that is more quickly digested and nutrients are better absorbed by the body. That’s why soy and similar foods are used as diluents in meat products, like fast food hamburgers.
 
If you want to gain weight and really build muscle, you’ll need 2,700 to 4,000 calories per day and that translates to about 300 to 400 grams of protein. That’s a lot of food. To lose weight, a woman needs around 100 grams and a man needs 150 grams of protein a day. And when he needs it throughout the day depends on the stresses and activities of his lifestyle. How do you get what your body craves in a sustainable and healthy way?
 
meal replacement shakes
Meal replacements have a 25+ year track record of clinically proven success in weight management. The right formulation and you lose weight or using the same system you can gain weight and build muscle with the right exercise program. Like any other product, there are variations and differences in quality that have given it a shock and an undeserved reputation among those who have not tried a good product. Meal replacement shakes fall into three categories: the “protein” shake, the unbalanced shake, and the balanced meal replacement shake.
 
Many people are familiar with the phrase protein shake and assume that any shake is a protein shake; that’s not true. A protein shake is a specific formulation used by bodybuilders for muscle building. Frankly, grainy and not very flavorful, but it builds muscle or makes you gain weight.
 
The unbalanced shake is what people typically find in the premixed cans on supermarket shelves: they don’t have a complete nutritional mix and are usually watery, very low in protein, making you hungry, and have an unpleasant aftertaste. Unfortunately, this product has given meal replacement a reputation it doesn’t deserve.
 
Balanced meal replacement shake

A good meal replacement shake can actually be more nutritious than your average meal and keep you from feeling hungry. That’s because this type of shake packs a lot of soy-based protein and good nutrition without excess calories and fat. And it can be customized to your taste and nutritional needs with different flavors and adding some fruit of your choice. They are a great way to reach your goal weight and maintain it. Studies confirm that those who lose weight with meal replacement shakes are more likely to keep it off than other dieters.
 
Because? Because in most diet programs you are calculating your needs for lean complex carbohydrates and lean protein. That is why they specify the amounts of fish, certain meats, etc. However, based on your weight, gender, personal eating habits, smoking, drinking, etc. those needs vary. With the balanced meal replacement shake, everything is contained in the shake you need and you can then customize it by adding/subtracting protein and carbohydrates as needed. Example: A high-quality meal replacement can provide the equivalent of 1500 nutrition calories in just 300 calories from the shake and you feel full. That’s the magic!!!!
 
This is one reason why having a personal wellness coach along with your program can be critical to your success. Your trainer can advise you on the amount of protein your body needs by measuring your body composition with a Lean Protein Estimator and constructing a Body Mass Index (BMI) for you. The trainer can then create a simple meal plan to help ensure you get that much good protein. Example: You want to add more protein based on your needs; add protein powder to your shake; protein delivered this way contains no fat or cholesterol.
 
Personal Wellness Coach – Who is a good fit?
 
Spouse or partner – While it’s great to have the support of your partner or spouse, they may not always know how best to help. And sometimes it is difficult to follow and implement the advice of someone close to you.
 
good friend – A good friend can be a wonderful weight loss ally, especially if he becomes a training partner. But just like a spouse – knowledge of him and the existing relationship provide support, but not the most effective training.
 
Weight loss personal trainer. – It’s true, there’s nothing like having a personal trainer to help you achieve your weight loss goal. With good programs that trainer comes with the program! The trainer should be available, keeping you up to date with product suggestions, exercise tips, body composition tests, logs, and more.
 
try this for fun
Grab a McDs burger and fries, don’t do anything special, just put them in your bag the way you bought them and put them in your pantry, garage or car; probably a fries or two anyway is like my car. Come back in 3 months and take a look. They have not changed, there is no mold, the fries are the same color, life is better through chemistry. My question to you: if the bugs don’t want to, why should you? Know that I’ll probably stop by and get a burger once in a while, but that makes you wonder.
