What constitutes a good meal replacement?
-
As per question
My only thought is slow-release of proteins and carbs, although I know there are many other variables.
So, what constitutes a good meal replacement? If you were to make one, what would you add inside? -
fruits + nuts + vegetables
fruits = orange, banana, pineapple, apple, strawberries, tomatoes
nuts = almonds, pine nuts, walnut, macadamia
vegetables = celery, asparagus, green pepper, cucumber
choose ur own combi
throw in blender, add ice and blend
drink fresh
note this is for general meal replacement for detox, dieting or loss of appetite
not if u are those selling house with matching pipes -

Hmmm... but it is a good idea to add nuts/fruits into a meal replacement shake. Very smart... -

meal replacement can include real and proper food, such as blending oats, milk, fruits, etc.Originally posted by the Bear:you guys are pumping iron and eating crud instead of proper food?

sometimes you just want some food, but so much of it. -
drink some milk..
real food is not 'meal replacement'
you used the wrong terms...Originally posted by eagle:meal replacement can include real and proper food, such as blending oats, milk, fruits, etc.

ok! -
eat properly, don't replace.
just cut down on rice, white bread and stuff. that doesn't mean u don't take it totally, just reduce your intake.
everyday we're all eating too much and exercising too little. -

pasta salad (can add meat like chicken, ham) -
Some people wanna eat up to 5 meals a day. Outside food can be kinda unhealthy and proper meals might be kinda time-consuming. Meal replacements to substitute for 1 or 2 of those 5 meals then become a fuss-free no frills source of extra calories.Originally posted by the Bear:steak and potatoes..
