This is within the range of 450-800 calories per day that is defined as VLCD (Very Low Calorie Diet).

    • How can I achieve best results?

Long-term change of lifestyle consists of several areas you need to work on. Our experience showed us that 50% is your mental and psychological aspect which goes deep in your past patterns and habits. And if you are able to change those you are half way to your long-term goal. 40% contribute healthy eating habits, which means that you are not here for a short run but a long run. That’s why we don’t want you to think of nuMe nutrition plan as a diet but a lifestyle, which helps you adopt a habit of eating 6 small portions a day. Physical activity is last 10% which contributes to your feel good mode, sculpting and shaping your body and critical areas you want to target and improve muscular and cardio respiratory fitness, improve bone and functional health, reduce the risk of hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke, diabetes, breast and colon cancer and depression. nuMe nutrition plan is a part of our 360° concept which also includes so called NBG (nuMe Body Guide) which covers 3 very important components: NBG Workout Plan, NBG Behavioral Change Plan and NBG Motivational Plan.

    • Will I gain all of the weight again when I stop the nuMe nutrition plan?

    • Can you avoid hunger when you are on a nuMe nutrition plan?

      It depends from person to person. You will typically feel hungry the first few days, but then your body gets used to the new eating habits, 6 small meals per day and your stomach will shrink. The body goes into a state similar to fasting and begins converting fat into substances that promote a feeling of being full. Furthermore, all nuMe Slim Shakes, Soups and Bars with Collagen contain fiber, which further enhances a feeling of fullness, together with protein from milk and soy. If you still experience hunger in the first few days nuMe team has developed for you nuMe Slim Boost in form of Soft Chew in delicious Sweet Strawberry flavor with Glucomannan which comes to your rescue whenever you need a quick fix for your hunger and high-calorie sweets. Other very good solution to exercising teeth and chewing feeling is to cut fresh carrots or other root vegetables to tiny sticks and eat them whenever you feel hungry, especially in the evening in front of TV.

  • nuMe Slim Shakes, Soups and Bars with Collagen and combination with other healthy meals

    • Will my metabolism slow down if I only eat nuMe slim shakes, soups and bars with Collagen?

      No, it will not. This is partly because of the nutrients and dietary fiber in nuMe Slim Shakes, Soups and Bars with Collagen, and partly because you eat 6 nuMe portions per day. Eating many small meals during the day keeps your metabolism up better than a few large meals each day.

    • Can I eat through the day 4-5 nuMe meals and a healthy dinner from other healthy food?

      You must always eat at least 5 nuMe meals a day - even if you supplement your nutrition plan with other food. This is very important because we must ensure that our bodies get all of the vitamins, minerals and nutrients they need. And although it seems that the food you supplement the nutrition plan with is healthy and nutritious, it is not certain that it contains everything your body needs. If you would like to eat dinner, it is a very good idea to eat a nuMe Slim Shake, Soup or Bar with Collagen 30 minutes before to temper your hunger and help you resist the temptation to eat too much!

    • Can you be on the nuMe nutrition plan as a sole source of food in VLCD for more than 8 weeks?

      Yes you may. It was previously required by law that, if you followed the nuMe nutrition plan as a sole source of food in VLCD without supplemental food, you had to contact your doctor after 8 weeks just to make sure that everything was going according to plan. People were frequently allowed to continue their nuMe nutrition plan after this consultation, if desired and needed. This legal requirement is no longer in force, but we still think it is a good idea to consult your doctor if you are engaged in a long-term weight loss plan. But you do not have to stop or take a break from the nuMe nutrition plan after 8 weeks if according to your BMI (

    • Can I replace just one meal with nuMe slim shake, soup or bar with Collagen?

      If you do not want to replace your entire nutrition plan and eat 6 nuMe meals daily, you can replace one main meal with 2 portions of nuMe meals, which will provide more than 30% of the vitamins and minerals you need in your daily nutrition plan.

    • Can I mix and max between nuMe slim shake, soup and bar with Collagen with this 6 portions?

      You can mix and match between nuMe slim shakes, soups or bars with Collagen as much as you like. Which means that you can mix flavors (2 x Chocolate Muffin, 2x Blueberry Raspberry Heaven, 2x French Vanilla) or you can mix 2x nuMe Slim Shake, 1x nuMe Slim Soup and 2x nuMe Slim bar. Or if you like you can be all day on 1 selected product/flavor for example 6 portions of nuMe Slim Bar Cookies and Cream.

    • What I do when we have special occasions (birthdays, barbeque picnics, celebrations)?

      When you know there is some special occasion be sure that you don’t go there hungry. Before going to the event make sure you eat 1 or 2 portions of nuMe Slim Shake, Soup or Bar with Collagen, so that your eyes won’t be so hungry at the event. If you do not want to explain everybody that your on special nutrition plan and you want to be as social as possible always choose food that will bring you the least damage. That is white meat (chicken on grill, fish on grill), vegetable cooked or on grill, other products that are mostly protein sourced (chick peas, light cottage cheese) or include no saturated fats (peanuts unsalted, avocado , coconut, etc.). when choosing a drink try to avoid alcohol. If you decide to join a toast let it be a glass of champagne or glass of white/red wine.

  • Physical activity and VLCD

    • Can I exercise when I am on a nuMe nutrition plan?

      It’s very important that you adjust physical activity to your capabilities and BMI. First rule is safety, safety in terms of not burdening your knees and joints as you are already carrying big burden. Our recommendation is that you start with (power) walking, bicycle or swimming where your knees and back are the least burdened. If your knees are already hurting than bicycling and swimming are the best option. Slowly after first couple of kilos lost your motivation will grow and also it is time to upgrade your workout with walking up the stairs. From the beginning you can already start whit strengthening exercises for shaping and sculpting your body, focusing on main muscle groups: gluts, arms, abs and back. We propose low intensity workout or combination of aerobic exercise together with strengthening/sculpting exercises. Studies have shown that you will enjoy greater fat loss and reduction in circumferences by combining nuMe nutrition plan and exercise.
      That’s why we prepared for you NBG Workout Plan which is adopted to your nutritional plan and can bring you wanted results to sculpt and shape your body and critical body areas you want to target. Follow NBG Workout Plan together with nuMe nutrition plan and be amazed by the results!
      We do not recommend high intensity/anaerobic workouts due to low daily intake and also as we said we need to protect knees and other joints, as well as back. Some people find that their endurance may be slightly lower due to the low energy content of their daily intake. That’s why we recommend on days when you exercise at least 40 -60 minutes to add 200 – 400 kcal from other healthy food that the intake is not too low after used energy. If you decide to include high-intensity workout we propose additional daily intake of 400-600 kcal.

    • What kind of exercise do you recommend on a nuMe nutrition plan?

      As we wrote it’s very important that you adjust physical activity to your capabilities and BMI. If you want to workout in comfort of your home we propose you choose one of nuMe Slim Packages, which already include NBG Workout Plan for your target areas and for goal you want to achieve. It’s the best and the last choice you will need to make for achieving long-term healthy lifestyle and reach your goals.
