Let's be honest, we all want to lose weight fast. I don't know anyone who isn't busy and has extra time to search out a new diet. I did find a way to lose weight that has worked for me. What I found was easy to prepare, fit into my busy schedule and worked fast.

First, I have to advise anyone looking to lose weight to talk to their doctor first. Make sure you share with your doctor your weight loss goals and how you plan to lose weight. Then, take a quick self inventory that includes:

how much do you want to lose
how much time do you have to devote to your plan.
You need to be realistic, and you need to make a commitment. Once this is done, you are ready to learn the fastest, and easiest, way to lose weight.

I have found substituting a meal replacement shake for one meal a day to be the fastest and easiest way to lose weight. Mixing a shake and drinking it instead of preparing and eating a meal is much easier than figuring out what I could, or couldn't eat on a diet. The brand of shake I use comes in 6 different flavors so I have enough variety that I never get bored or tired of a particular flavor.

I recommend checking the list of ingredients included in the shake you choose. As this is also a meal replacement product, you need to make sure you are consuming high quality nutrients your body needs. Look for proteins and fiber that will help reduce hunger and food cravings. Antioxidants and vitamins should be included to help fight free radicals and support a healthy immune system. Also important are probiotics and digestive enzymes to aid in nutrient absorption. Drinking a meal replacement/weight loss shake has helped me lose weight and has improved my general health through the high quality nutrition provided in the shake.

The shake must be easy to use, especially if you plan to take it to work with you. A prepackaged mix that you combine with water is easy, fast, and can be made anywhere. Also look for a shake that can be modified to add extra flavor without compromising calories. If you are using a blender for your shake (always recommended) you could add strawberries to a vanilla flavored shake and have a delicious strawberry shake instead of a high calorie meal.

I chose the meal replacement shake as my diet plan because it is easy and I wanted to lose 10 pounds fast. I was able to do that without adding an exercise plan into my day. If you want to lose more than 10 pounds I would recommend adding in exercise also.
