Salba - ground Chia seed Thursday, February 16, 2012 11:02 AM (permalink)
Hello!
I have used Almased before. I do not have a lot of weight to lose, but I use it when I need to get back on track again. I usually do three days of 3 almased shakes and vegetable soup when I need to press the "reset" button. I find that it really helps to curb my cravings!! And I love the taste!! YUM!
I don't have any oils, so I add ground Chia seed (Salba) to my shakes. I use my vitamix so it all gets blended in nicely. I also like to add cinnamon! And for a change, adding cocoa powder is nice.
Almased is my "go-to" shake when I need to lose a few pounds. It really is a simple and delicious way to lose a couple of pounds! And it is a great before and/or after workout shake, too, because of the balance of protein and healthy carbs!! Thanks for introducing Almased in the US!!
Best wishes to all!

    Hello Salba.  I'm new to Almased and absolutely love it!  I plan to continue using it as you are.  We are about to celebrate Mardi Gras Tuesday Feb. 21.  It's an all day, parade watching, dancing and eating day.  Every other year, I was still carrying my fat from Thanksgiving thru New Year's Day.  This year is different thanks to Almased.  I've taken off all by holiday fat plus a few pounds.   My plan is to enjoy Mardi Gras to its fullest, because I now have a safety net - Almased.  I'm using Almased for all my meals today and tomorrow, then I'll enjoy everything about Mardi Gras, including the food!.  Then back on Almased for a couple of days, however many it takes to lose whatever weight I may gain on Mardi Gras.  I'm so happy to know that this is okay.

      Hi Julieb:
       
      I live in New Orleans too!  I like the idea you have regarding adding Chia seeds.  I began the 3 day fast and I am at a good start so far with a loss of 4 lbs.  I decided to stay away from the Mardi Gras festivities because of the temptations (the food, lol).  New Orleans has the best food in the world!  I need all the help I can get to avoid my weaknesses.  Thanks for the tip and best of luck with your weight loss goals.
