I asked my best friend who works for them and she said it's like any other diet, but I think it lacks a lot of the nutrients you need.

I'd look into something with more protein, less carbs.

Re: special k challenge...

the only reason it "works" is because you are kind of starving yourself. The directions are to eat a serving in the morning, and lunch, and then whatever you want within reason at dinnertime.

It will work, but there are better ways to do it.Chat Icon

Re: special k challenge...

i believe special k is around 120 calories a serving (1 or 3/4 cup). with 1/2 c of skim milk it makes 160.

one serving for breakfast and one for lunch makes 320 calories.

you're only losing weight because you're starving yourself. same concept as slim fast. i guess it'd be ok for a quick fix, but honestly i'd rather eat more variety and something that's better for you.
