Default Celebrity Slim Meal Replacement Program

I have noticed a lot of adverts on tv recently for Celebrity Slim

Celebrity Slim is a meal replacement program which I believe originates from Australia.

I am not a great fan of meal replacement programs.

The cambridge diet is the only one I have tried, it seemed great at first because you do see rapid weight loss but the minute you stop taking the product your body goes crazy for the food and nutrition you have deprived it of. In other words I pigged out on all of the things that I knew I shouldn't eat, where as normally I would only have had them in moderation anyway.

Has anyone here tried Celebrity Slim ?

Is it any different from other meal replacement programs, let me know what you think, did it work for you?

A quick glance at their website, suggests to me that it is more of a ketogenic diets where carbs are restricted. Very similar to the Atkins Diet.

I don't like these bloody diets! Yes of course if you follow it rigidly, you WILL lose weight, but how is this sustainable??!!
It doesn't re-educate people how to eat, follow a healthy diet and exercise!

I don't see a problem in using this diet, if you wanted to shift some weight quickly, lets say for a holiday at short notice ... but as a long term solution? No.

Fiona,

What other diets do you consider ketogenic,

are you saying that the other meal replacement diets ketogenic?

Celebrity Slim
Cambridge Diet,
Slimfast

I have a friend who has recently started the cambridge diet and has lost 11lbs in about 10 days.

She is delighted, but as you say this unsustainable.

I'm not too familiar with all the other diets out there Mo.

From what I know, I *think* the Cambridge Diet and Slimfast work on a VLCD (very low calorie diet) principle, as in the diet places you on a big calorie deficit, which yes - means you will lose weight ... but what happens afterwards when people go back to their normal diet? I think you know the answer to that .....!
