Using lean shakes is an easy way to lower your daily intake of calories while maintaining your energy and satisfaction. Lean shakes are designed to supplement a healthy diet that would otherwise be calorie insufficient. With the help of three shakes per day, it is possible to reduce your daily consumption to 1,500 calories or less.
Step 1
Purchase GNC lean shake powder. A 1.7 lb. bottle lasts about eight days on the lean diet, so buy in bulk if you intend to follow this diet for more than a week.
Step 2
Break your eating into three full meals and three snacks. A full meal should have roughly 300 calories, of which 60 percent come from carbohydrates, 25 percent from protein and 15 percent from fat. Snacks should have the same percentage of each but be limited to approximately 100 calories.
Step 3
Eat every two to three hours to keep your metabolism high and maintain a feeling of satisfaction. Begin with a full meal for breakfast, then alternate snack, meal, snack for the rest of the day.
Step 4
Mix one scoop of lean shake powder with a cup of water for your mid-morning and evening snacks. Triple the ingredients for your midday meal.
Step 5
Exercise with moderate intensity for 30 minutes each day. Perform cardiovascular work such as jogging, cycling or brisk walking. This is not a requirement on the lean shake diet, but it is recommend as an effective way to enhance your weight loss.
Tips and Warnings
- Learn what size glass the snack and meal sized shakes fit into. Once you know the portion sizes, make your shakes in bulk to enjoy over the course of a couple days.
