Stress: the biggest enemy to a successful diet


There’s a diet that works for almost anyone, and that is to control your calorie intake so you take less calories in than the calories you burn during the course of your day. But make sure you do it the smart and manageable way. When you feel hungry, or suddenly stop snacking, chances are, you’ll end up feeling stressed. Stress makes it difficult to resist overeating or binging between meals. The best approach then, is to continue eating 3 meals a day so that you feel sufficiently full while controlling your calorie intake.

What the Professionals Have to Say

The Vitality Doctor™, Dr. Marilyn Joyce, RD: “I love the simplicity, the convenience, the crunchy texture, and the satisfied feeling I experience after eating a package on the run. ”
“As a busy health professional, who specializes in creating ‘Instant Energy’ using healthy 5-minute strategies that can be done anywhere, anytime by anyone, I am always looking for ways to get my patients to eat smaller, healthier meals and snacks, that are also convenient and delicious, with no muss, no fuss. Well, the newly formulated whole grain, Soypal Diet Cookies are just the ticket. They have been uniquely recreated for the American palate, and are absolutely scrumptious. And yet, like the original cookies, they have maintained a healthy dose of okara fiber, so they fill you up with just the addition of water or some green tea. They can be eaten anywhere, anytime, are conveniently packaged in individual meal replacement servings, and come in 3 irresistibly delicious flavors. Though I, personally, do not need to lose weight, I do need something nutritionally balanced, that’s healthy and tasty, to tide me over on really busy client days, or on speaking tours when I am flying from one city to another – or racing from one event to another – and there’s simply no time to stop and eat. I love the simplicity, the convenience, the healthy wholesome whole grain flavor, the crunchy texture, and the satisfied feeling I experience after eating a package on the run.”

Shigehiko Kinoshita, MD: “As a part of your eating habit, learning to chew well will make it easier to continue a healthy, beautiful diet with less chance of a rebound.”
My first impression of Soypal Cookies is the pleasant texture, one I have never experienced before. The better I chew, the more I can taste the sweetness of soymilk, which adds to the fragrant flavor. Modern society is inundated with soft-textured food like microwaveable meals and frozen food. Our eating habits have changed; we eat very quickly without chewing enough to stimulate the secretion of saliva. An enzyme called amylase found in saliva brings out the sweetness when it breaks down polysaccharides that don’t actually taste sweet. Also, chewing is like a facial exercise – it helps improve our facial expressions and prevents aging. As a part of your eating habit, I think that learning to chew well with Soypal Cookies will make it easier to continue a healthy, beautiful diet with less chance of a rebound.

Miyuki Suzuki, Physician: “So long as you have these cookies and something to drink, you can eat any time, anywhere.”
Springtime had always been my diet time, but diets I tried were too demanding or stressful and they never worked. But 2 months after starting this cookie diet, I’ve lost over 17½ lbs. 
My weight decreased by more than 6½ lbs. with the first box, over 3 lbs. with the second, and over 2 lbs. from the 4th box on. I can see that I’m losing weight even if they are in small increments, and I’m enjoying this diet. I am now at the best weight I’ve been and very pleased with the result. 
The cookies taste good, and I can take the package anywhere. So long as you have these cookies and something to drink, you can eat any time, anywhere. For a doctor with a demanding schedule, it’s very convenient. The option of different flavors also helps me continue this diet.

Kiyofumi Hayashi, MD: “Make it into a habit, a part of the daily life.”
I became interested in this product because of two reasons: the ingredient – Japanese-grown soybeans (and soymilk); and the creator of these cookies, a bakery chef with many years of experience. As I expected, the cookies are flavorful and fill the stomach. It’s an entirely different concept in diet foods. 
I believe the key to a successful weight-loss program is that the diet allows you to continue without being unreasonable to yourself. I’m also very health-conscious and experiment with different products, but I always place importance on whether I can make it into a habit, a part of the daily life. 
Our daily routines differ by individual, but this product offers us with a flexible option. We can eat the cookies as breakfast, or in place of lunch for those of us who are busy at work. I recommend these cookies because it’s easy to fit the diet into our individual lifestyles and make it into a habit.
