Hi, this is my first attempt at a post. Its been 3 years since Ive
lost the 25 pounds that were really hurting my self esteem (Im a
female college senior now, am 55and weigh 130). I lost the weight
over a 5 month period, almost entirely by switching from sodas and
juices (very high in calories and carbs) to water and coffee. But I
found that while I was losing fat, I would feel weak and constantly be
hungry. Adding a lot of milk to my diet changed this (high protein,
low fat and calories). I soon became sick of skim milk, which was too
watery, but was afraid whole milk would put my weight back on. While
visiting my sister in Boston I stopped by a Garelick Farms
promotional event (I always go for free samples) and got hooked on
Over the Moon Milk. It tastes exactly like 2% and Whole milk but has
the same calories and fat as skim milk (and much higher protein).
So
my advice is, get rid of empty liquid calories from juice, sodas and
alcohols, but keep milk to sustain muscle mass and avoid hunger. Of
course, working out could never hurt either. If anyone has any
feedback on this strategy, let me know.
