Have you started thinking about your New Years resolutions yet? Last year 16% of women decided to make losing weight their New Years resolution. I wonder, how many women really stuck to it? Most people have a hard time with their resolutions and I wonder if it is because we wait to start them until New Years. This year I decided that I want to start right now. It is not normally good to put things off so my new healthy lifestyle starts right now!

I was recently given the opportunity to review Slim-Fast so I figured this is the perfect time to start my new life of getting healthy. I tried the new Cappuccino Delight. It was so rich and creamy that I definitely did not feel like I was missing out on anything. Slim Fast shakes are now even better tasting and come in convenient plastic bottles that can go anywhere with you. They come in Creamy Milk Chocolate, French Vanilla, Rich Chocolate Royale, Cappuccino Delight, and Strawberries N’ Cream.

The new shakes are part of the Slim-Fast 3•2•1 Plan that makes it easy to customize your own plan and stick to it.

3 Snacks: You can choose 3 snacks a day which can be fruit, nuts, veggies, or Slim-Fast 100-calorie snack bars.

2 Slim-Fast Shakes or Meal Bars for the day: Slim-Fast shakes and meal bars will give you the balanced nutrition of a meal and up to four hours of hunger control while still tasting great and keeping you on track.

1 Balanced Meal: This plan allows you to enjoy one balanced 500-calorie meal per day. As a rule, try to fill half your plate with veggies, a quarter with protein, and a quarter with whole grains. 

This plan allows you the variety you need while still keeping it easy to understand. Many diet plans starve you and end up slowing down your metabolism. I have always been a fan of diets that give you 6 low calorie meals a day like this Slim Fast 3•2•1 Plan. They keep your metabolism going so you can burn fat all day long and they keep your hunger pains away so you are not tempted to cheat on your diet.

Whether you are trying to fit into a hot dress for a Christmas party or your next reunion or if you just want to start the new year off with a new you, I would like to wish you luck. You don’t need luck though. You can do anything that you put your mind to!
