| Weight Loss | Special K Challenge | Feb 13 2007 20:29 (UTC) |

| I just want you guys to know that most of you have this Special K thing all wrong. First, it is 2 weeks, not 1. Also, you guys speak of not being able to stick to serving sizes and such, and that a bowl of cereal is more like a snack. Any diet you look in to specifically addresses serving sizes. That is what is wrong with us as Americans, we are used to the serving sizes we get when we go to Olive Garden or Outback which are all EXREMELY ridiculous!! A normal serving size should be no larger than what you could hold in the palm of your hand. Yes, that is small, but we have to realize too that we should eat about 5 SMALL meals a day. If you were to take the time to look at what the Special K challenge recommends online, you would note that it encourages snacks in between meals and it also offers a pretty mide variety of options so you don't feel like you are always eating the same things. They have meal replacement protein bars (there is the protien that everyone has been talking about). There are also protien snack bars, regular snack bars, snack bites, and protein water. Notice it says 2 weeks...I use this as something to regulate my appetite and jumpstart my "diet". If we get into the rut of out fast-paced society and eat out all the time, we need something like this to help us get back on track and put things back into perspective for us. The bottom line: in order to lose weight, we muct burn more calories than we are taking in. Just remember that and quit worrying so much about the rest of it. Hope this helps.
