No expert, but IMHO I do not think this stratergy is healthy (as in providing all the nutrients a human body requires daily) or sustainable over a long period.

IMHO you would be better modifying your diet so that you are eating healthy whole foods, but eating slightly less calories than recommended for a lady of your height and weight. This way you would be receiving the required nutrients from your meals. You would be losing weight at a slow, but healthy and sustainable pace. And you would also be promoting healthy eating habbits to OH and children.

As for exercising, along with walking there are lots of things you could do in 15-20 minutes at home that would help you achieve your goals. You may get some ideas from the home workout thread or if you googled home workout I am sure you would find many ideas which you may be able to fit in if the children have naps during the day.

Something that I have come across lately which looks intersting and it seems a number of folks on here are already following is Primal Eating. I am currently reading the book and it seems to make sense and is how I mostly eat any way.

Just another option for you to consider which IMO would be healthier adn more sustainable long term

Yes, you need to modify your eating habits, but there is research to show that replacing one meal a day with a protein shake does produce weight loss without any significant drawbacks.

Profemme wouldn't be my favourite powder, but there's nothing wrong with it.
