Accurately estimate calories

If you think you’re accurately estimating the number of calories you’re eating each day but the scale refuses to budge, meal replacements may be your answer. Pre-packaged or pre-measured foods allow the dieter to be aware of the exact amount of calories ingested each day instead of guessing. It can also help on those days when you just don’t have time to pack a healthy lunch to take to work or other activities outside the home.

Meeting nutritional needs

Packed with all of the essential nutrients you need, you don’t even have to worry about planning and cooking a complicated meal that may or may not have what your body needs to get through the day. If you don’t meet your body’s nutritional needs, it makes losing weight more difficult and can also have an adverse effect on your health.

Meal replacements can stop the temptation to grab unhealthy snacks in its tracks, lessening the chance that you’ll indulge in a sugary or fattening treat.

  • Make sure you’re eating enough. Eating less than 1,200 calories per day can backfire and slow your metabolism.
  • Move as often as possible. If you have a sedentary job, get up and walk around every hour, take a walk at lunchtime and choose the stairs instead of the elevator. Moving at every opportunity is an easy way to burn more calories and achieve success.
