Meal Replacement problem....

So I was reading an article on MensHealth.com called "Drink Yourself Skinny" talking about meal replacement shakes (MR's) as a diet. 2 shakes throughout the day and 1 solid meal. They rated Met-Rx as the top brand. That being said I tried it, matter of fact, I bought a whole damn case (12 cans). I was 155lbs(im just tryin to loose a beer belly nothing major) roughly before the case, now that the case is done, I weigh 162lbs and my belly looks bigger! What the F***!!!! The shake is a High-Protein Low carb/fat/sugar shake. Did I miss something? [minimal weight training is involved if that helps]
 
How many calories were you taking in? There's no magic drink that makes you lose weight.

Also, how tall are you? 162lbs sounds really light!
Just concentrate on eatting well and lifting weights and the beer belly will eventually go
 
Dude a lot of the fitness magazines are disguised as advice from pros. They tell you a few exercises, offer a few new positions in the bedroom, and some minor advice on getting the ladies there.... then when they have you interested, they start pitching products.. products which they are paid handsomly to pitch to you. Don't trust them.

If you want to lose your gut, do it by cutting your carbs back. Theres no better way imo.
 
I understand what you're saying...I'm a sucker for ads. But the reason why I went with it is because the west indian diet at home is full of oil, fat, carbs etc. So i used 2 meal replacement shakes, 1 for breakfast, 1 for lunch or dinner, and 1 solid meal either lunch or dinner. But I was drinkin the shake to build muscle mass, which is the reason why im looking bigger.
