Pros: Quick, motivating weight loss Cons: rough first few days, bad breath, missing old crutch...food.

Pros: An answer when reality is foggy and out of control..this program (not diet) is do-able!! Cons: You really miss your codependent friend..food (AT FIRST).

Pros: Incredibly easy, wasn't hungry, fast results, easy to find on ebay. Cons: Too manufactured, lacking fresh fruits and vegetables in the initial phase.

Pros: Portable & convenient. Very few cravings after the first month. Cons: Expensive. Shipping sometimes took 4 days, sometimes 20.
After many failed attempts at dieting and combos of diet and exercise I decided to go with guerilla tactics and put myself on a meal replacement diet plan. This definitely takes all the guesswork and most of the pre-planning out of losing weight which ...
