What do you recommend when I have used your products correctly and still have not lost weight?
1. Make sure products are being taken correctly. For example, for most individuals, the AdvoCare® Metabolic Nutrition System supplement color packets should be taken 30 minutes prior to breakfast and lunch.
2. Drink enough water - at least 1 ounce for every 30 calories consumed each day.
3. Do not skip meals. Waiting too long before eating can cause the body to slow down metabolism in order to conserve calories. Instead, eat more frequent, small meals and snacks.
4. Ensure the intake of protein at breakfast is at least 20-25 grams (preferably low fat). AdvoCare Trim Meal Replacement Shakes provide 24 grams protein with only 2 grams fat.
5. AdvoCare Meal Replacement Shakes should be mixed with water instead of milk when your goal is weight management. Mixing with milk increases the number of calories. Also, the protein molecules in milk digest more slowly than the easy-to-digest protein in the shakes.
6. Avoid eating the evening meal too late in the day. Eat only fruit within 2-3 hours of bedtime.
7. Eat 9 servings (4 ½ cups) of fruit and vegetables for a 2000-calorie energy intake per day to increase fiber and aid satiety. Consider aligning your personal dietary goals with the new 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Department of Health and Human Services, which recommend consuming 14 grams fiber for every 1000 calories consumed per day.
8. Consume complex carbohydrates in the forms of fruits, vegetables, nuts, legumes and whole grains while limiting refined sugars and grains such as white bread, white rice and pasta made with refined flour.
9. Eat lean meats and consume moderate quantities of olive oil, avocado and nuts.
10. Use Fiber Drink supplement to add fiber and bulk to the diet, also aiding satiety.
11. Try adding Catalyst™ Dietary Supplement between meals to help preserve muscle and energy levels during periods of weight loss. Adding ThermoPlus™ supplement (1-2 capsules) before breakfast and lunch in addition to an MNS® system will support appetite control and calorie burning. AdvoCare® Slim™ liquid weight management drink provides outstanding appetite control and supports fat oxidation, and can be used alone or in conjunction with MNS.
12. Maintain a daily physical activity program: at least 20-30 minutes, five times per week.
13. Some medications such as cortisones and hormones can hinder weight loss.
14. Weight management goals are very individualized. Individuals further from their healthy weight may shed pounds more quickly than individuals who have fewer pounds to lose.
15. Muscle weighs more than fat. Losing inches and/or fat is more important than losing pounds.
16. Schedule regular visits to your healthcare professional for routine health screenings and physical exams.
