Slim-Fast 3•2•1 Plan: Going From Now to Wow!

This post brought to you by Slim-Fast. All opinions are 100% mine.

If you have been following my blog, you know that I have sneaked in a few posts regarding weight. More specifically, the weight that I have gained (and lost) as a result of pregnancy.  Factor into that my age:  I JUST reached the ripe old (young) age of 40!  I always joke that I feel more like two 20's!  On a good day!  Though I feel young, my metabolism isn't what it once was!

I have lost 54 pounds in the past 18 months.  I still have the lingering 5 to go.  The toughest in my book!  I am sure that I am not alone there!

I have never tried any diet meal plans or programs.  But will consider it in the coming year.  I know that most believe in starting N-O-W. Now? No way, it's the holiday's and there are so many delicacies to enjoy!  I'm a realist.  I am proud of my losses and will work on the remaining 5 little pounds in the coming year.

I'd LOVE to hear about your experiences.  

I'm curious as to how many of you have tried or are considering Slim-Fast? From what I hear they offer quite a few tasty shake options. Slim-Fast shakes can provide up to four hours of hunger control. There are 10 grams of protein, 5 grams of fiber and 24 essential vitamins and minerals. Sounds like a great aid in making it easier for you to stick to your plan and achieve your weight loss goals.

Flavors available in the new Slim-Fast bottle include:

• Creamy Milk Chocolate

• French Vanilla

• Rich Chocolate Royale

• Cappuccino Delight

• Strawberries N’ Cream

About the Slim-Fast 3•2•1 Plan:

• 3 Snacks: Three nourishing snacks a day such as Slim-Fast 100-calorie snack bars, fruit, nuts or veggies

• 2 Slim-Fast Shakes or Meal Bars per day

• 1 Balanced Meal: Enjoy one balanced 500-calorie meal per day.

Tip: Try to fill half your plate with veggies, a quarter with protein, and a quarter with whole grains.

Slim-Fast 100-calorie snack bars provide a calorie-controlled snack to help curb sweet cravings between meals.

I am more a fan of snack bars vs. shakes so I LOVE that I can substitute a meal bar instead!  I really want to try the Chewy Chocolate Crisp.

You can find the new Slim-Fast shakes in the pharmacy sections of grocers and retailers nationwide, including Wal-Mart, Target, Safeway, and Kroger. Also available online at Amazon.com and the at the Slim-Fast 3-2-1 Store on Facebook.
