Diet shakes are a quick fix after the excesses of the Christmas holidays and New Year parties. If you do not want the “foie gras”, cheese and Christmas desserts finding a permanent home on your hips, a few days drinking these shakes as meal replacements will help you to go back to your pre-holidays weight without too much effort. You will also need to drink plenty of water throughout the day to clean your system from all the abuses done during the holiday season.

If you can, it also helps to include at least 30 minutes of physical activity daily. Something like walking the dog, a few laps in the swimming pool, dancing or cycling. Another tip to help you go back to your pre-holiday weight is to pamper yourself. A good body scrub to help clean your body from toxins accumulated, a detox food regime, a luxurious bath and a sauna are also very good ideas to bring back glamour to your face and body after all those wild party nights. .  


WARNINGS:

If you want to lose more than 6 pounds or 3 kilos, you are under 18, pregnant, nursing, or you have health problems such as diabetes, you should see a doctor before starting this or any diet.  

 

I would not recommend diet shake mixes to anyone trying to lose considerable weight.  I did try an exclusive milk-shake diet some years ago for several months – I managed to lose a lot of weight- but as a result I was severely ill.  However, as a quick fix to bring you back to your original weight after a few days excesses, diet shakes are and easy and quick way to do it.

Remember...

Remember that this milkshakes are meal replacements, which means that you need to take a milkshake INSTEAD of your usual meal.  Do not make the mistake of a friend of mine who was gaining weight instead of losing it because she was taking the milkshakes WITH every meal she had!

Lgali : the ready to drink shakes are super handy to carry around in your handbag for a quick fix and best of all... they are tasty!

getinmoney: Yes, I agree that eating healthy is the best way to lose weight, but I find that sometimes after a few excesses, a couple of days with milkshakes bring me back to my usual weight without too much effort. As I said, I would not recommend it as a long term plan but I am all for it as a quick way to go back to your usual weight.

Sybille: thanks for stopping to comment. Happy new year!

I have tried the 'herbalife' shake. It's really works. Besides, it doesn't let you feel hungry.
