Slim Fast Optima Review

The Slim Fast Optima plan is an alternative plan to the successful Slim Fast meal replacement plan. Offered through eDiets.com (see profile here) the diet claims to help you lose weight by controlling portion sizes with pre-packaged snacks and meal replacements combined with healthy meal choices through out the week.

The primary benefit I can see for the Slim Fast Optima diet is that it's perfect for the person on the go that wants to jump start their weight loss, but doesn't really have the time to sit down and plan out a week of meals in advance, let alone actually find the time to cook them.

Risks Associated with Slim Fast Optima Diet?

While following Slim Fast you do get all your required nutrients so there are no major healthy risks for anyone unless you are lactose or soy intolerant (many of the prepacked snacks are soy and/or lactose based).

Not so much a risk, but a point to keep in mind is that eating shakes and bars quite often will get boring after a while. Making the Slimfast Optima diet difficult to stay on for any long period of time. You will want to ensure you can make the transition to a healthy lifestyle after you've lost your weight.

Slim Fast Optima Meal Examples

There are a couple of meal examples on the eDiets profile page for the Slim Fast Optima diet. Just a quick overview a sample day might be:

Breakfast: Slim Fast Optima Breakfast bar with piece of fruit and yogurt or cheese

Lunch: Slim Fast Optima Shake with lean meat sandwich (i.e. Roast beef, turkey) on low fat bread (i.e. Rye)

Dinner: Learn fish (i.e. Salmon) or poultry with a small carbohydrate serving  and vegetables or salad NOTE: often dinner is a pre-made meal containing all of the items mentioned.

One of the benefits of following the Slimfast optima meal on eDiets is that they provide you with meal lists, recipe ideas and everything else you need to be successful on the diet.

Verdict on Slim Fast Optima?

This is a wonderful diet for those that are on the go, or people who really just don't like preparing meals. Is it a long term change that people can make? I'm going to say probably not, but it works, and Slim Fast diets have been working for a long time.
