No, you can absolutely have your healthy meal during the day. We have found that for some people, that eating the healthy meal earlier in the day, instead of at night, makes all the difference in their success. In fact, we recognize that special occasions occur in everyone’s lives. So, always remember that you have this option. However, if you do have your healthy meal early in the day, you’ll need to only have your shakes, soups, and nutrition bars for the rest of the day.

If you are vegetarian, you can have eggs, tofu, or cottage cheese. But, please keep yourself limited to 8oz of each day.

Yes, when you are choosing your daily snack item, consider any of the items under the snack category the same as enjoying a nutrition bar.

Yes, its alright to double-up your shakes if you miss one, but try and do this as the exception, rather than the rule.

It is important to remember that your goal is to not only lose weight, but to develop a new and healthy lifestyle. And to do this, as part of any healthy lifestyle, exercise needs to be a part of your life. Of course, this does not mean that it has to be boring or time consuming. It simply needs to be viewed as part of your daily activities. For example, to get started, we want you to develop healthy exercise habits. All we ask is to do is walk for 30 minutes each day for the first 30 days of your program. Walking 30 minutes each day is something that you can do in the morning, at work, or in the evening as a family activity. Additionally, with each New Lifestyle Programs, we include an Exercise and Activity Guideline that will get you started and keep you pointed in the right direction.

It’s important to understand that each person begins and continues the process of exercising at different levels. For some people, this will mean that they start by taking daily walks. And, for others, it will mean starting a cardio or strength training workout at home or at a local gym. Regardless, it’s important to understand that your goal on the New Lifestyle Diet is not to simply lose weight, but to ultimately develop a lean and healthy body and the habits that allow you to continue to exercise and keep the weight off for the rest of your life.

As part of your overall exercise and fitness program, you’ll be working through the following phases:

Phase 1 - Daily Walking - 30 days
Phase 2 - Strength Training, Twice a Week - 30 days
Phase 3 - Strength Training, Three Times a Week - Ongoing
Phase 4 - Advanced Strength Training (Optional) - Ongoing

To get started, we want you to develop healthy exercise habits. All we ask is to do is walk for 30 minutes each day for the first 30 days of your program.

Lot’s of people start very complex exercise programs that are impossible to maintain with a busy lifestyle. And, while going to the gym or different exercise classes is great, we want you to understand that walking 30 minutes each day will have amazing results on your weight loss and overall health. Walking 30 minutes each day is something that you can do in the morning, at work, or in the evening as a family activity. In fact, you shouldn’t have any excuse not to be able to do this. So, try not to view exercise as a chore, but something that you do each day for yourself. And, in doing so, see your initial walking as the roots of your long term exercise habits that will allow you to not only lose the weight, but keep it off for the rest of your life.

Depending on your level of fitness, you may find that continuing to walk for 30 minutes is all that you need in order to stay fit and healthy. However, other people may find that the 30 minute walks prepare them to take on other exercises. For those people, Phase 2 should be considered the time to take the exercise to the next level. And, for optimum results, the ideal program to be following during Phase 2 is to start a strength training program that allows you to work your entire body at least twice a week, while at the same time continuing with your daily walks. Ideally, you’ll be combining strength training and cardiovascular training in the same workout, but for just 30 minutes. A number of excellent exercise centers exist around the country for doing this, including: Curves for Women, 24 Hour Fitness, Bally Fitness, YMCA, Gold Gym, and countless others. In fact, with just a few hand weights, you can also create a strength training workout for yourself at home.

If you want to add more exercise, you are now simply going to expand your workout from twice a week to three times per week. Obviously, some people will want to move to this level faster and others will need to take more time in doing this. However, you’ll want to see this as the time that you take your strength training and cardio workout to a level that you are doing three days per week. Now, the exciting part about doing this is that in only 60 days, you have now taken yourself to a optimum level of exercise and fitness that will not only allow you to continue to lose weight, but more importantly, to build a lean and fit body that you can enjoy for the rest of your life.

Yes, you can absolutely follow the program as a full fast, but if you are doing this, please replace the healthy meal with an additional 2 shakes, puddings, hot soups, or drinks each day. As a result, you should be having at least 9 shakes each day.

As part of the full fast, you should be having at least 9 shakes, puddings, hot drinks, or soups each day.

Yes, you can customize the Men's and Women's Programs to only include shakes, puddings, soups, and hot drinks (full fast). (This is done by simply clicking on the Customize button when ordering online, then click on the “Shakes, Soups, and Drinks Only” button at the top of the customization page.)

As part of the program, you’ll receive weekly lesson plans via e-mail that will take you through an entire process of creating your New Lifestyle. In fact, you’ll learn everything from behavior modification to maintaining your weight loss after you have reached your goal weight.

While the shakes, bars, soups, and hot drinks will allow you to physically lose the weight, the real challenge for most dieters is learning how to maintain their weight loss and transition to regular food when the diet is over. With the New Lifestyle Diet, we recognize this issue from the first day you start any of the New Lifestyle Programs and provide you with skills that are necessary for literally creating a New Lifestyle. For example, the reason that we integrate food into the diet is because we want you to begin learning how to think about food in smaller and healthier portions. And, by having you shop for lean meats and vegetables as part of your program, you'll not only be losing weight, but developing the long term skills necessary for maintaining your weight loss. Even more important, as you continue on the diet and get closer to your goal weight, our lesson plans will provide you with the instructions and guidelines for transitioning to regular food. However, the good news is that its already something that you will have been doing, so it simply becomes expanding your new shopping habits and slowly replacing all of your shakes, bars, soups, drinks with healthy food choices. Remember, the New Lifestyle diet is not just a diet, but also a way of helping you to create the healthy lifestyle that is necessary for long-term weight loss success.

As part of the program, you are provided with an ongoing weekly lesson plan that includes everything from behavior modification to weight loss maintenance and transitioning. These lesson plans are the cornerstone of creating your New Lifestyle.

Absolutely! As you have probably already discovered, when you reach your goal weight, the real adventure truly begins. Regardless of the diet that you have followed, its always smart to keep shakes, bars, soups, and drinks close by as a way of ensuring your success and keeping yourself within your goal weight. And, because we offer a wide variety of flavors and exceptional product choices, we can ensure that your maintenance program remains interesting.

New Lifestyle Diet is a nutritionally complete program that contains a balance of protein, carbohydrates, and essential vitamins and minerals. Unlike fad diets that restrict a specific macronutrient, such as protein or carbohydrates. One key component of the New Lifestyle products is the utilization of whey and casein protein. Since the amount of lean muscle a person has is the main determinant of their metabolic rate, utilizing whey and casein protein allows the body to maintain lean muscle, while still losing weight. As a result, as the body loses weight, it is able to maintain lean muscle mass and also a higher metabolic rate.
