Weight Loss Forum / Low Carb / January 2004Atkins, Z-Carb, Arizona Tea, SlimFast ETC
Hiya I got a few Q and Statements: 1// Slimfast- I bought the Low Carb Chocolate Beverage, as soon as my son comes home from school Ill I shall open one and have a miniscule sip and give him the rest, Ill tell you what its like... 2// I bought some of those 7-11 Zcarb chocolate bars Ill do the same with those. 3// Someone said they had had the Arisona Blueberry NoCarb Iced Tea? How was it? I got a bottle today... 4// In my local 7-11 there was a whole banner outside over the store front about Joining the Atkins Low Carb Revolution and a huge selection inside. They had this lil stand with Atkins Pamphlets and so I took SEVERAL to put in my purse to give to ppl who either ASK or are ignorant about Atkins to hand out to them! Instead of arguing and having to explain repeatedly what I eat and what it is! Maybe we should all have these handouts to give and spread the word! It even has a 7 day induction menu in the back. It explains everything! The pamphlet is labeled ALL ABOUT ATKINS (16 PGS) 5// In the induction menu it says you can have Atkins bread and pancakes, I thought no breads until one gets into OWL? Which is it? No bread or only Atkins bread?

I am assuming since the Doc has passed away, the company will alter the diet plan for product sales boosts. My 2 cents Myway We saw the label on Arizona Tea says 0 carbs Turn it around and it lists carbs in there??? We passed it up.

You eat your way and Ill eat mine. I do NOT allow sugared sodas, or Ice Teas in my house FOR the reference. Read into that what you want...

Would I rather he had Low Carb SF SlimFast WITH VITAMINS AND MINERALS than a Sugary Soda, Fruit Roll Up, Or those nasty Fruit Gushers or candy or cake or potato chips after school? YOU BETCHA SWEET BIPPY! What ever a "bippy" is! <G> BTW it was like a CarbSolutions with a heavy vitamin flavor.. I look at SlimFasts NOT as a Diet product but as a Vitamin supplement. SlimFast is NOT a wise diet as its not FOOD and teaches you NOTHING about good eating behavior but it is nutritional as a nice snack in place of other junk foods!

BTW I remember when SlimFast WAS low carb when they first came out. They were all nutrasweet! cut her some slack, especially if her kid likes the drink. They are better than 12 oz. of liquid sugar > BTW I remember when SlimFast WAS low carb when they first came out. > They were all nutrasweet! > > but you're influencing your son's eating. it's not so much about > > *your* eating when you're pushing potentially shitty food onto [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > What ever a "bippy" is! > <G> why does he need either one of them? can't he eat a piece of fruit and have a glass of water? is he allergic to celery and peanut butter or something? are fake bullshit shakes (like slimfast) and super-sweet high fructose corn syrup transport systems (like soda) the only options he has? give the kid an apple, for chrissakes. better yet, give him a pear: they have a lower glycemic index. > why does he need either one of them? can't he eat a piece of fruit > and [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > give the kid an apple, for chrissakes. better yet, give him a pear: > they have a lower glycemic index. Ummm Its not like he gets ALL SLIMFAST ALL THE TIME! And I already told you I dont give him sugared sodas! He drinks water all the time, SOME fruit (Apples and bananas) and everything else. He is NEVER sick! Hes a robust healthy boy! But Queen, we were talking about me buying the beverage to taste test it, and give the rest to him as a treat NOT every damn day after school. Geez!

Some people likes treats..what harm is that? My 2 cents. Myway > > > But Queen, we were talking about me buying the beverage to taste test it, > > > and give the rest to him as a treat [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Some people likes treats..what harm is that? My 2 cents. if people want to treat themselves to cans of crap, that's fine. if people want to treat themselves to something that isn't a can of crap, that's fine too. but giving a can of slimfast to your kid in the guise of a "treat" is not very nice, not to mention not very smart. >> but you're influencing your son's eating. it's not so much about >> *your* eating when you're pushing potentially shitty food onto [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > What ever a "bippy" is! ><G> Sugary Soda, Fruit Roll Up, Or those nasty Fruit Gushers or candy or cake are not the only alternatives. Water, real juice, milk, buttermilk, are also available. Giving children junk food or specialty concoctions formulated to be sold to specialty dieters, does not strike me as reasonable. > BTW it was like a CarbSolutions with a heavy vitamin flavor..

I hope that your son will have a lifetime of fitness and good health in front of him! I hope that he grows up resistant to the addiction to junk foods, etc. i > The pamphlet is labeled ALL ABOUT ATKINS (16 PGS) Can you scan a copy of one?

For induction? None. The products are a hindrance to the whole concept of induction, even if they are legal countwise.

Can you tell me what kind of system you have? Okay, just exactly how dark is it? Okay. There could be four or five things wrong. Have you tried the light switch? > I'm not interested in the menus. Does that cut it down a lot? Actually I could E-Mail a zip file of it to you and anyone else who wants it. I NEED (cause I promised awhile ago) to scan parts of the Dr Richard Hays "Eat More Fat, To Eat Less Calories" book for the group.

Send it to my home address, if you have it instead of the group address (that one has a 1 meg max for attatchments). Signaturerevek Perdita thought that not obeying rules was somehow cool. Agnes thought that rules like "Don't fall into this huge pit of spikes" were there for a purpose. {Carpe Jugulum, 1998} |
