Meal replacement way of dieting
LOL, so if I go to the store, look at what is in the Healthy Choice Lemon
Pepper Fish, buy those foods separately, cook them, place them on my plate, then I can show my 'meal replacement' or my plate to others, right? EAS refers to meal replacements as 'engineered food' or 'total nutrition products'. I do not consider 2 or 3 oz of fish to be and engineered food. -g |

So you're eating a shake for breakfast each morning? Which brand - how
many calories does it have? How long have you been doing it? bicker 2003 1NVAL1D wrote in message ... Indeed. They do have the best success rates of any commercial programs. I can't imagine why I would switch from having a shake every morning to something less nutritious, less satisfying and less healthy, like cereal. |

Post the ingredients please.
There are too many for me to memorize but the ingredient list was something like: breaded lemon pepper fish (bunch of stuff in parens like flour, oil, salt, sugar, garlic, etc.), cooked rice, water, broccoli, and so on. If your point is there are ingredients other than fish, rice, and vegetables, like perservatives, etc. then using that as a basis for classification, most of the grocery store is "engineered food". -g |

You would get a lot of disagreement then. Try telling the met-rx folks, or eas, or weider nurtrition that their engineered foods are no different than the garbage sold in grocery stores. -g "Carol Frilegh" wrote in message ...

Or an egg? :-) I actually could imagine having a couple of eggs each morning, except that's much more prep than I typically have time for. -- ¤bicker¤ "It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." - Carl Sagan People are, of course, welcome to place whatever irrelevant limitations on their ability to enjoy something that they wish. |

EAS refers to meal replacements as 'engineered food' or 'total nutrition products'. I do not consider 2 or 3 oz of fish to be and engineered food. EAS doesn't define what a meal replacement is. Scientists and researchers do. Studies show that the benefits from using meal replacements over not using meal replacement apply as I suggested. HMR can provide more details on the subject, of course. -- ¤bicker¤ "It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." - Carl Sagan People are, of course, welcome to place whatever irrelevant limitations on their ability to enjoy something that they wish. |

True, but engineered for what? If engineered specifically (at least in part) to fit within a structure program focused on health management (i.e., "low calorie", "low fat", or any of the other labels regulated by the government now), then it's a meal replacement. -- ¤bicker¤ "It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." - Carl Sagan People are, of course, welcome to place whatever irrelevant limitations on their ability to enjoy something that they wish. |
