Topic: I am a on a diet for three days now.

Anonymous A started this discussion 9 years ago #64,365

I have reduced my daily caloric intake from about 3000 calories to about 500 or less. I am eating Shirataki noodles, which have basically no calories, along with some lean protein, like shrimp, and some leafy vegetables. Day three, and going well. The noodles are made of yam fiber (indigestible) and they really keep you full.

Prebiotics in Glucomannan Fiber. The viscous fiber in Shirataki noodles is known as a prebiotic, meaning that it is indigestible to humans. It provides no calories or nutrients to human cells, but nourishes good bacteria in the digestive system.Apr 13, 2017

Why not? I find that they are almost like Vietnamese cellophane noodles.

It is. Other kinds of Asian noodles are like that too. Do you also not like them?

Have you had Chinese rice noodles or Vietnamese glass noodles?

I do. I eat some few veggies with the noodles, and I take a daily good quality multivitamin.

What is Ryvita? ISn't that just regular old crackers?

I eat boiled Nebraska chicken, served on crustless white bread with a side of plain noodles. Ryvita is too spicy!
