However, Slim Fast has adjusted its diet in order to help a person lose weight without the need to only drink the shakes. Instead, you will combine nutritious meals with Slim Fast weight-loss products. Speak to your doctor about determining whether this diet is right for you.
Step 1
Consume one of the Slim Fast meal replacement options for breakfast. You can choose between a Slim Fast shake, granola bar or meal bar.

You can then eat any type of food item that is less than 200 calories. Suggestions from Slim Fast include a spinach salad, ½ turkey sandwich and yogurt with fresh fruit.
Step 3
Eat your sensible meal for dinner. Your dinner should be made up of approximately ½ plate of veggies, ¼ lean protein and ¼ whole grain starches. The meal should have about 500 calories.
Step 4
Snack on low-calorie items three times over the course of the day. There are Slim Fast snack bars available. You can also consume popcorn, pretzels and fruit salad.
Step 5
Include four servings of fruits and vegetables each day. To keep your body full as well as to make sure you eat nutritiously, you will consume at least four servings of any type of fruit or vegetable.
